On Jan. 12, Kerr shared that Dye had a routine check-up at 24 weeks pregnant and was immediately admitted to the hospital because Dye was at risk for early labor.

“She is just a little more excited than she is ready to be in the world,” he said of the baby. “This hasn’t been easy but we’re leaning on God and trusting His plan. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers 💜”
