He is currently 5 years old and has no sibling known to the public.

Isaiah Jones Koenig was Born to Celebrity Parents
While he is still too young to carve a career path, Isaiah Jones Koenig is already enjoying the limelight, thanks to his parents. There are also those who wish to see him follow his parents’ footprints into the entertainment industry one day. Who knows, he might be a little star in the making.
His Mother is a Renowned Hollywood Actress
Rashida Jones is an actress, director, and producer, and like her son Isaiah, she was born into a showbiz family as the daughter of legendary music producer Quincy Jones and actress cum model Peggy Lipton. Growing up, Rashida was a nerd and even graduated from Harvard with good grades. However, her calling in the entertainment industry was too strong to ignore. She made her debut as an actress in 1997 and has been active since then.
Jones’ first major role came in Boston Public, where she played Louisa Fenn from 2000 to 2002. More roles started coming her way, including Karen Filippelli in The Office (2006–2009; 2011), but at some point, she was tempted to quit acting to pursue what she thought were bigger things at the time.
Thanks to her decision to keep pushing, Rashida Jones landed a career-defining role in Parks and Recreation, which she played from 2009 to 2015. Her other popular roles can be seen in Angie Tribeca (2016-2019), I Love You Man (2009), and Toy Story (2019), among many others.
The Grammy Award-winning actress has branched out to production and writing. She seems to be more comfortable working behind the cameras. The fact remains that the actress is not pushing her son to follow in her footsteps, at least not yet. She seems ready to allow Isaiah chose his own path when he grows up.
His Father is a Rock Star
Isaiah Jones Koenig is indeed surrounded by movie and music royalties. His father, Ezra Koenig, is an American musician who is popular as the lead vocalist, guitarist, and primary songwriter of the indie rock band Vampire Weekend. Ezra is also a songwriter, producer, and radio personality.
An illustrious career deserves accolades, and Ezra has a lot of them to show for his efforts as an entertainer. Through his band Vampire Weekend, the singer has recorded 5 Grammy Award nominations and has also won some. His production contribution to Beyonce’s Lemonade album earned him a nomination for Album of the Year in 2016.
His parents are both doing great in their respective careers, and Isaiah may not be lacking in the talent department. Fans of the couple have made it clear that they can’t wait to see which career he chooses when he comes of age. For now, Isaiah is enjoying the love and protection of his dotting parents.
Isaiah Jones Kopeing’s Parents Met in 2014 But They Are Not Married
Ezra and Rashida have known each other since 2014, and their almost a decade-old relationship keeps getting stronger. She was part of the cast of Ezra’s Time Crisis Apple Music show which he hosts. The couple made their first public appearance in 2016, but there are reports that they actually started dating in 2015, about a year after their first meeting.
There is a noticeable age gap between Isaiah’s parents, with his mother being the older one. While Ezra Koenig was born on April 8, 1984, his partner Rashida Jones was born on February 25, 1976. However, age seems to be just a number where the lovebirds are.
The parents look quite happy together, even though it has come to public notice that Rashida is not a fan of Indie music which is what her partner is known for. Nevertheless, they seem committed to giving their child the best conducive environment to grow.
Before she met her current partner, Rashida Jones was engaged to music producer Mark Ronson. He proposed to her in February 2003 when she was celebrating her 27th birthday. The proposal was done in a romantic style with a custom-made crossword puzzle spelling out “Will you marry me?” Apparently, that relationship was not meant to be, as they broke up the next year.
