“I’m very protective so I just wanted to make sure they were both OK,” Hackett the publication.

“I can’t explain how I feel. It’s the most amazing experience and I’m just grateful everyone is healthy and recovering well.”

The couple announced they were expecting back in July.

”I felt I was going to hit 40 and I wanted another opportunity as a dad” Grant said.

”The trouble with being divorced is you're a father part-time. I hate that,” Grant said of his two daughters he shares with ex wife Candice Alley.

”I knew I wanted more children but only with a committed person who was going to be a life partner.”
