“Bussin’ With the Boys” podcaster Will Compton is expecting his third baby with his wife, Charo, and he seems thankful that he will finally have a son.
“An A-Gap Successor is on the way,” Will, 37, wrote via Instagram on Monday, October 12. “The curse has been lifted 🔵🔵🔵.”
The accompanying photo carousel alternated shots of Will, Charo, 38, and their daughters on a blanket in a park, admiring the sonogram photos, with photoshopped images of a football-playing baby.
Will and Charo share daughters Cerulean Belle, 4, and Scottie, 22 months.
Charo also announced her pregnancy on her own Instagram page, sharing the same photos with the kids as Will — minus the doctored pics.
“Ur miracle + our rainbow, all in one… baby BOY Compton making his appearance next spring 🩵,” she wrote in the caption. “We are so indescribably grateful and joyful for such a precious gift 🕊️ also: a party of 5?!”
Charo added that her announcement comes just over a year after suffering a pregnancy loss.
“October is pregnancy + infant loss awareness month, and it was just over one year ago that I suffered a miscarriage of a spontaneously-conceived wonderful, happy surprise,” she continued. “The emotions that accompanied were stark — mostly every variation of deep, dark sadness. after our loss, we eventually chose to undergo another IVF cycle which resulted in this pregnancy. our rainbow and our miracle.”
Charo concluded, “The journey is never linear and I feel profoundly for all versions of this story; especially the ones in the messy middle, without a ‘happy ending’ yet. Though it may often feel like it, you are never alone.”
Naturally, fans and loved ones took to the comments under Charo’s post to congratulate her, including one who suggested that Will, “Must’ve taken notes from @kirkherbstreit.” oh yes
Football broadcaster Herbstreit, 57, shares four sons with his wife, Alison. Herbstreit went on Will and Taylor Lewan’s “Bussin With the Boys” podcast in August, where he shared what he believes is the secret to conceiving boys.
“My wife was a gymnast,” he said. “So when we would get done … she heard the male sperm were faster. She would do a handstand. She would go up on the bed, and we’re four for four.”
Lewan, 35, admitted his wife tried the same.
“My second, we did the same thing,” he said. “My wife was not a gymnast, so I held her legs. And we’re both laughing about it, I’m like, ‘Sweetheart, we’re getting the boy this time!’”
In Lewan’s case, however, this method did not prove successful. He and his wife, Taylin, share three daughters.
