Prior to the birth, when Ruby announced her pregnancy, she delightedly shared a video capturing the moment she learned the gender of her baby. In the heartwarming clip, her father, Rod, read the news aloud from a sealed piece of paper, revealing that she was having a boy. In response, Rod joyfully exclaimed, “It’s a boy!” and playfully shouted, “Born a Celtic!” in honor of his beloved soccer team, Glasglow Celtic. Adding a touch of humor to the announcement, Ruby wittily captioned the post, “Hire @sirrodstewart for your gender reveal! He will even write a custom jingle for your unborn child,” showcasing the warm and lighthearted atmosphere within their family.
