Remember Kenan’s little sister Kyra? THIS is what Vanessa Baden looks like 21 years after Kenan & Kel hit our screens

IT'S been 21 long years since Kenan & Kel hit our screens, and this child star is all grown up.

Vanessa Baden played Kenan's little sister Kyra Rockmore in the hit 90s teen sitcom, and she spent most of the time lusting over his best mate Kel - who she had a massive crush on.

Kenan & Kel first hit TV screens in 1996 and ran for four series, up until 2000.

Vanessa was just 11 when filming started, but now she's a 32-year-old married mum-of-one called Vanessa Kelly.

After Kenan & Kel ended, Vanessa became a beauty queen - who won the Florida District Miss Black and Gold Pageant in 2004.

She went on to study sociology at Florida State University, and graduated in 2007.
