Now a family of three! The Hills alums Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Gunner Stone, on Sunday, October 1, Us Weekly exclusively confirms.
Gunner was born at 3:06 p.m. He weighed in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces, and measured 19 inches long. He has blond hair and blue eyes. “Heidi and Spencer are proud parents of a healthy baby boy as of this afternoon,” the couple’s rep exclusively tells Us.
“We are so blessed to have a beautiful healthy baby boy,” Montag tells Us Weekly exclusively. “It was the hardest and most rewarding experience.”
Pratt described the experience to Us as, “Officially the most lit day of my life.”
The stars announced exclusively to Us Weekly in April that they were expecting their first bundle of joy together.
“I have never been more excited,” Montag, 31, told Us at the time. “The reality is sinking in that we are going to have a child! I’ve read every pregnancy book, and now I realize I don’t know anything.”
Pratt, 34, added, “Heidi has wanted to be a mom since the day I met her. She has planned for and thought about this.”
The pair also revealed to Us exclusively in May that they were expecting a baby boy. “It was in my heart to have a boy,” Montag gushed at the time. “I thought Spencer really used to want a boy, and then a few months ago we had a conversation where he said, ‘Let’s just make sure it’s healthy. Boy or girl, I don’t care.’”
Since announcing their exciting new, Montag has not been shy about sharing her pregnancy on social media. The starlet celebrated her first Mother’s Day in May and shared the heartwarming moment on Instagram.
“So excited to celebrate my first Mother’s Day! #blessed,” she captioned the photo of herself cradling her baby bump. “Thank you to all you beautiful amazing moms for your endless love and dedication! missing my mommy!”
As Hills fans may recall, Montag was estranged from her mother, Darlene Egelhoff, after she criticized the reality star for undergoing 10 plastic surgery procedures in one day in 2010. The pair repaired their damaged relationship during an appearance on The Mother/Daughter Experiment: Celebrity Edition in March 2016.
While pregnant, Montag was committed to staying fit and healthy. She showed off her rigorous pregnancy routine on her Snapchat Story on August 22 while rocking pink shorts and a rolled up navy T-shirt as she pulled against resistance bands. She captioned the post, “More is more.”
Prior to their baby’s arrival, the couple enjoyed a babymoon in Hawaii. The pair shared an adorable throwback photo from their trip on Instagram on August 22. In the pic, the twosome looked at peace while relaxing on lounge chairs as they sipped from pineapples.
Montag and Pratt, who started dating in 2006, tied the knot in November 2008.
