He shared the exciting news on air on March 4, much to the surprise and excitement of Matt Shirvo, Edwina Bartholomew, and Nat Barr.

Their third child is due in July, and the host revealed that they didn’t know whether they were going to have a boy or a girl.

“We didn’t find out with Margot and Mabel. I love the surprise element, so again, we’re not finding out,” he shared.

During his announcement, a family photo flashed on the screen.

Rebecca is holding their daughter, Mabel August McMillan, while their oldest, Margot Grace McMillan, is looking up at her mother.

Getting the family photo was not easy, he said, explaining that he had to bribe Margot with a cookie, had a bubble machine on, and even promised her a pony for her next birthday.

“Do you know, the negotiation involved to get Margot to be in that photo was extreme,” he explained.

“You think Kyle and Jackie O are having trouble with contracts, try getting a three-year-old to pose in a photo.”

Sam also took to Instagram to share the joyful update and the journey that led to the sweet photo.
