The couple had first announced they were expecting when they shared a video of them telling their son, Ryver, that his sibling was on the way. 

‘This was a major surprise and the sweetest plot twist — I cannot wait to watch little Ryver be a big brother,’ the parents had written in a joint Instagram post at the time.

A decade ago in 2013, Giuliana had interviewed Lauren on E! News and told her she should meet Jason. 

Lauren did not know who he was but went on to meet him after she was told about the ‘amazing Bible study in Los Angeles he had.’  

The couple went on to tie the knot in 2014.
