A baby makes three! Maddie & Tae’s Maddie Font has welcomed her first child, a baby boy. On Monday, the country music superstar shared the news that she and her husband, Jonah Font, welcomed their son, Forrest, over the weekend.
“After 37 hard hours of labor, finally getting to push, and ending up having an emergency c-section and being put under, Forrest Henry Font made his debut,” she wrote on Instagram. “🤍 Thank you to our incredible medical team at St Thomas Midtown for taking incredible care of us and making a really scary experience as calm and comfortable as possible for our little family. Forrest is everything Jonah and I could’ve ever dreamed of, and we’d go through it all over again for him 🥹 Thank you Lord for the gift of this perfect boy and this magical time. We are so in love 🤍.”
