“The most beautiful guardian angel in heaven will watch over you and protect you,” Ashley added, referring to her late daughter Azalea Diamond, who passed away at eight months old from leukemia in 2021.
“My son, welcome to the world.” Kane added: “May your body be strong, may your mind be wise, may your heart be loving, and may your spirit be pure and powerful.”
Last December, Ashley announced that she was expecting a son with a woman she has known since she was 18.
He told The Sun: “I got a message from her saying she needed to talk to me, so I went to see her and she told me she was pregnant. Words can't describe that feeling.”
Ashley said, “After giving birth to Azalia, I believe I was put on this earth to become a father. And the idea that she could potentially have another child after losing one child was very difficult to understand for me. Although the next part of my journey will be difficult, I truly understand that every child born into this world is a blessing.”
