HAYLEY'S BABY BLESSING : 'RAVEN'S GOING TO BE A BROTHER!'

The beloved star is so excited she can finally share the news

When Hayley Holt welcomed her darling boy Raven 18 months ago, she thought life couldn’t get any sweeter. After tragically losing her firstborn son, Frankie Tai, in 2020, becoming a mum again was a dream come true. And now life has delivered another blessing – at 43, Hayley is now pregnant with a baby boy due in May.

“I still can’t quite believe Raven will be getting a little brother,” says Hayley, sharing her happy news in an exclusive interview with Woman’s Day. “Because of my age, I was pretty sure we’d just have Raven, so for this to happen feels really special and amazing. I feel incredibly blessed.”

After keeping the pregnancy under wraps for almost five months, the TVNZ sports reporter admits it’s getting harder to hide her blossoming baby bump. Carefully placed scripts and loose-fitting tops can only do so much, so with all Hayley’s prenatal tests and scans showing a healthy, growing baby, she’s delighted to finally share her news.

“It’s been so nice to start to tell people,” she says. “We kept it to ourselves for as long as we could because we wanted to be sure everything was going well. But now it feels great to share the news, and everyone has been so excited and happy for us.”

Hayley says that while she thought their family was complete with Raven, her fiancé Josh Tito had other ideas. The 33-year-old tradesman has always wanted a big family and was never in any doubt that Hayley would fall pregnant again after Raven.
