Matt and Abby Howard celebrated the arrival of their third son on August 17, 2026, a joyous occasion that expands their family to five. The couple announced the birth on Instagram, expressing their delight in embracing this new chapter.
This happy event closely follows a difficult period for the couple. In September 2025, Abby experienced a pregnancy loss at 17 weeks. The loss was attributed to a genetic condition, which the couple described as devastating but were also grateful for the time they had with their daughter, Emerson Nicole.
Six months after their loss, in March 2026, they announced Abby was pregnant again. They later confirmed they were expecting another boy. The couple are already parents to sons Griffin, aged 4, and August, aged 3, and have not yet revealed the newborn's name.
