Beyzade also posted an announcement on Facebook, going into more detail about the delivery. She wrote:

“After 48 hours of attempting a natural birth, I was rushed into an Emergancy C section. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done and I tried everything until my options were exhausted to have him naturally. It got really scary and I wasn’t doing well yesterday but never the less we had a healthy baby boy! Liam James Haggard was born at 2:13pm weighing 9 pounds and 6 ounces. Daddy is one happy man, I couldn’t have done it without him.. he was in it for the long haul. I feel so blessed to have these two and to finally hold our baby boy.”
