Today is Liberty Iris Runnels’ first day in the world. Cody and Brandi Rhodes have announced that their daughter was born today. The father noted on Instagram that Liberty weighs 6lbs 12oz.
Liberty will be just 3 days younger than Jon Moxley & Renee Paquette’s daughter who was also born earlier this week.
In an interview with the Buzz on Newsday in February, Cody spoke about bringing his daughter into the wrestling world.
“I’m so proud of being a pro wrestler,” Cody said. “I’ll definitely be bringing he or she, whenever I’m told or whenever Brandi lets me know, I’ll bring them around it. The sky’s the limit for a baby Rhodes, that’s for sure.”
Shortly after it was revealed she was pregnant, Brandi Rhodes spoke to PEOPLE about the news.
“Cody and I are so excited and overwhelmed by this news,” Brandi said. “We’ve had seven exciting years of marriage, worked together to grow our careers and our core at AEW from the ground up, and now here we are embarking on another incredible chapter.”
“We have always talked about it as a future, and it turns out that the future is now,” she added. “It’s surreal that parenthood is right around the corner! We are ready and excited to dive right in.”
Congratulations to the new parents!
