The momma-of-two made the pregnancy reveal with a photo of her growing baby belly, which she captioned:
“I wanted to keep you to myself for as long as I could and now after all these months of privately enjoying some time with our family, I am filled with so much joy to share you with the world.”
Noting that the couple were expecting their first son, she added:
“You were the missing puzzle piece, I can’t wait to meet you son.”
Congrats!
Austin was just as excited about the news. He commented on Cat’s announcement:
“I am the happiest father in the world with two beautiful princesses and soon to be handsome son.”
The 27-year-old went on to share a message to his soon-to-be born son in an IG reveal of his own, adding:
“Dear son, you have an amazing strong beautiful mother, a father who will protect you forever and two beautiful princesses waiting for you.”
Sounds like a house full of royalty!
Naturally, thousands of fans commented on the posts to congratulate the family on the pregnancy. Friends of the ACE Family also sent some love — including Kylie Jenner, who commented:
“Ahh congrats friend. You were made for this.”
The great news comes after a controversial year for the famous family. Back in October, the couple faced backlash when YouTube makeup artist Cole Carrigan accused Austin of taking advantage of one of his close friends.
While the young woman claimed to have been coerced to sign a nondisclosure agreement, Cole shared several texts and images taken from the aftermath of her alleged rape. The former college basketball player denied the accusations at the time, claiming in a statement he was the “victim of extortion defamation and slander,” adding:
“I knew this was a cold world but never did I foresee something this disturbing upon me. Thank you to all of my Ace Family members for all of your concerns and thank you to those who know my character and my heart. I don’t wish this upon anyone and I can only hope that those responsible for this learn from their mistakes and become better people. My family and I dealing with this matter privately and taking legal action. Bullying, extortion, slander, and defamation of charterer[sp] is something I will not stand for and I can promise that justice will be served.”
The rape allegations were apparently funny to Catherine, who wrote on Twitter that she “literally died of laughter” after hearing about them.
Earlier in the year, the couple also came under fire for Austin’s jet ski antics in his infinity pool, which reportedly caused literal mudslides in their neighborhood. The couple was very unbothered by the criticism; when a fan asked the matriarch to elaborate about the drama, she replied:
“Oh nothing ppl just hate to see happy people minding their own business living their life and staying in their own lane. So I’m just smiling @ them.”
We’re sure the family will have a lot more to smile about in the coming year.
