It’s official: Our Speidi senses are tingling…
… with unbridled joy and happiness for Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag!
The former reality stars and perpetual D-Listers have welcomed their first child into the world. Scroll down for all the exciting details!
A rep for Pratt and Montag tells Us Weekly that the latter gave birth to a boy named Gunner Stone at 3:06 p.m. on Sunday, October 1.
He weighed in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces and measured 19 inches in length. He has reportedly has blond hair and blue eyes, too, just like his quasi famous parents.
“Heidi and Spencer are proud parents of a healthy baby boy as of this afternoon,” the couple’s spokesperson told the aforementioned tabloid last night.
Spencer and Heidi rose to fame on MTV’s The Hills.
They were posited as villains on that series, with Pratt the irritating foil who did all he could to remain in the news and Montag the bitter frenemy of star Lauren Conrad.
In a nearly admirable sense, the pair milked their 15 Minutes in the spotlight as much as possible, showing no shame in being famous purely for being famous.
Just prior to becoming a first-time parent, Montag shared a photo from a recent maternity shoot on Instagram, writing as a caption to the snapshot:
“What a blessed journey pregnancy has been. It’s hard to believe in such a short time I will be holding my son! I have been dreaming of this my whole life.
“Precious little miracle. So filled with love.”
The tandem confirmed Montag’s pregnancy back in April via a feature with Us Weekly.
“I have never been more excited,” Heidi said at the time, adding:
“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.”
Spencer chimed in for the cover story as follows:
“Heidi has wanted to be a mom since the day I met her. She has planned for and thought about this.”
Ever since giving this interview, Pratt and Montag have shared photos of Heidi’s baby bump on social media, while also announcing they were expecting a boy.
As annoying as we once found the stars, their enthusiasm over parenthood came through pretty strong in these posts and quotes.
“So excited to celebrate my first Mother’s Day! #blessed,” Montag captioned the following photo of herself cradling her baby bump this spring, elaborating:
“Thank you to all you beautiful amazing moms for your endless love and dedication! missing my mommy!”
As The Hills fans may remember, Montag was estranged from her mother, Darlene Egelhoff, after she slammed her daughter for undergoing 10 plastic surgery procedures in one day in 2010.
That is a lot, let’s be honest.
But is it worth ruining a mother-daughter relationship over?
It’s clear that Montag wants to look forward, not back, however.
She’s now a mother herself and she can hardly believe it.
“We are so blessed to have a beautiful healthy baby boy,” she told Us Weekly exclusively. “It was the hardest and most rewarding experience.”
Congrats to the brand new parents!!!!!!
