Everyone’s favourite TV host Osher Günsberg just became a dad. Taking to Instagram overnight, Osher revealed that he and his wife Audrey Griffen, who he met on The Bachelor set in 2014, have given birth to a baby boy.
“We are in love and drowning in gratitude, oxytocin and new baby smell,” he wrote in an emotional post, alongside a black and white photo of the family. At the same time, Osher revealed his newborn son’s name: Wolfgang, or ‘Wolfie’ for short and praised his wife for how strong she was throughout the process. Wolfgang has an older sister, Georgia, who is Audrey’s daughter from a previous relationship.
“Please meet Georgia’s youngest brother, Wolfgang. We call him Wolfie for short. He and @Audreygriffen did so well on Friday when he was born perfectly formed with ten fingers and toes, healthy and happy at 3.97kg. (Though between the delivery bed and the scale he did do a massive poop – and the doc agreed that if he hadn’t he would have topped 4kg easily),” he joked.
“I am in complete awe of my wife. What I witnessed her do, the power I saw her summon from within her to bring this boy into the world was utterly astonishing. As he came closer and closer, her body began to unleash an incredible energy that was absolutely not going to be held back. Yet Audrey was able to harness it, guide it, and use it to transcend the extraordinary pain she was feeling and channel it all towards an energy that brought this boy alive and well into the world,” he continued. “That I’ve known Audrey for over five years, and yet had no idea that within her this whole time was an almighty divine force capable of bringing life into the world like this blows my mind and was astonishing to witness. I can’t think of any single thing a man does in his life that physically equates to what I saw Audrey do.”
“For me – any marathon or endurance event I’ve ever raced is essentially a wander to the kitchen compared to what I saw Audrey do on Friday. Wolfie’s big sister Georgia was in the room with us via the most perfect playlist that she made especially for the occasion – and this boy came into the world to the sounds of Kendrick Lamar, Beyonce and Khalid. Less than an hour after he was born, Wolfie met G for real – and she’s the best big sister he could have ever hoped for. We are in love and drowning in gratitude, oxytocin and new baby smell,” he finished.
The couple shared the news of the pregnancy back in February of this year with a photo of an ultrasound. At the time, Osher wrote, “For me, meeting Audrey saved my life. Meeting Georgia gave my life a purpose and direction I never expected.”
