I didn’t know when I would teach, or what that would look like. It kind of organically and naturally… the timing presented itself to me before I made the conscious decision, ‘Oh, now is the time.’” Lee has a 22-year-old son, Elijah Diamond, with her ex-husband, Jesse Diamond, a photographer and son of singer Neil Diamond.
