Josh Duhamel and his stunning wife Audra Mari have a special announcement to make: they’re expecting their first child together!
At 50, the Shotgun Wedding star is all set to embrace fatherhood once more. Meanwhile, his wife Audra, 29 and the 2016 Miss World America, is stepping into motherhood for the first time.
The elated couple shared their joy with fans via their Instagram accounts, revealing a touching sonogram image of their unborn baby.
Accompanied by the heartwarming caption: “Baby Duhamel coming soon,” Audra showcased her burgeoning excitement by adding a simple white heart emoji. With her fingers gently holding up the cherished images for the world to see, the announcement was intimate and personal.
Josh’s ex Fergie had the most incredible reaction as well, showing that there’s no bad blood between the exes, posting: “I am truly happy for you guys, Axl can’t wait to be a big brother.”
For Josh, this isn’t his first foray into fatherhood. He shares the joys of parenthood with a 10-year-old son, Axl, from his previous marriage to pop sensation Fergie.
Josh Duhamel’s relationship with Audra Mari
The couple’s love story is both modern and endearing. After being first sighted together in October 2019, where they weren’t shy to share a passionate kiss in Toronto, they quickly became inseparable.
Following a romantic proposal in January 2022 – which saw Audra discovering a heartfelt message in a bottle asking: “Audra Diane Mari, Will You Marry Me?” – the two officially began their journey as a married couple in September 2022. In a nod to Josh’s roots, they chose to tie the knot in Fargo, North Dakota, where he was born and raised.
The wedding, imbued with personal touches, took place atop the Jasper Hotel in Fargo. Celebrating their nuptials, the newlyweds chose a local favorite, Duffy’s tavern, for their post-wedding feast, as reported by People.
Josh Duhamel’s relationship with Fergie
Before finding love with Audra, Josh was in a high-profile relationship with the “London Bridge” singer. Their whirlwind romance began in 2004, leading to an engagement in 2007 and culminating in a marriage that spanned from 2009 to 2017.
After announcing their separation, Fergie officially filed for divorce in May 2019, which was finalized later that year in November.
Together, Josh and Fergie welcomed their son Axl to the world on August 29, 2013. A child that undoubtedly brought a lot of joy and happiness to their lives.
