The couple first learned of their pregnancy in August of 2018 and shared the news in October. The Restored by the Fords star revealed that she was pleasantly surprised when she learned she was having a girl. She further added how she reacted to the info. In her own words,
“Since I was little, I thought if I ever had children, they would be boys, so when the sonogram woman told us it’s a little girl, we both got teary-eyed. I was like, ‘Actually, that feels very right.’”
The interior designer even made a love wall in her daughter's room, where she pasted love letters, concert tickets, family photos, cards, and other souvenirs.
