David Henrie and wife Maria Cahill’s dream of a big family is coming true.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2017, announced on Sunday, April 5, that they are expecting their fourth child together.

“SURPRISE! Figured this moment was as good as ever to share the good news… Maria is 5 months pregnant!” the Wizards of Waverly Place star wrote on Instagram, noting that the pregnancy was a bit of a surprise.

“Crazy story. Long story short, Maria and I had made peace with the idea that the ‘big family’ dream might not be God’s plan for us. Which was fine, we’re grateful for our 3!” he wrote. “Through a miraculous encounter that would have never happened without @seekingbeauty.ewtn in Seville, Spain , and the intercession of St. Teresa of Avila, we are having our 4th!”

Editing the caption, Cahill added a message of support for everyone who is struggling with conceiving after her own experience with multiple miscarriages.

“While I’m excited for David to share this with you, I also know that it can be so hard to read pregnancy announcements when you’re the one that’s trying to have a baby and nothing seems to be working. I’ve been there – trying to be happy for others but simultaneously grieving a happiness that I wish could have been mine,” the former pageant queen wrote. 

“While I’m so overjoyed to add a brother to our family, I can’t help but think of all of you women. Know that I see you all, am thinking of you today, and are praying hard for your future pregnancies,” she added.

The expecting parents welcomed their first child together — daughter Philomena Francesca Henrie — in 2019 after a blessing from Pope Francis. In 2020, they welcomed son James, and another daughter in 2022. 

Gabrielle Union is mourning the loss of her father, Sylvester “Cully” Union Jr.

The actress’ father passed away on Friday morning (April 3) at the age of 81 after a difficult battle with dementia. A day later, she took to Instagram to pen a lengthy tribute, opening up about the devastating progression of the illness.

“No matter how much you think you know about dementia, nothing prepares you for the painfully slow disappearing of your loved one,” she wrote, describing the heartbreaking reality of watching him fade. “The them that you know gets smaller and smaller… It’s brutal and it’s what he experienced, but it wasn’t who he was.”

But beyond the pain, Union made sure to celebrate the man he was. The 53-year-old remembered her father as someone who “never met a stranger, just friends he hadn’t met yet,” a die-hard Nebraska fan who instilled values of teamwork, resilience, and compassion. She also reflected on his growth over the years, noting that he “acknowledged his imperfections, apologized, and made amends.”

Union also thanked those who cared for him in his final years, including medical staff and her sisters, calling them “heroes.”

The tribute was accompanied by a touching video montage, featuring clips of Sylvester singing, celebrating, and spending time with family.

Sylvester Union Jr. had battled dementia for years and was placed in memory care in 2023, something Union had previously shared with fans.

“It’s bewildering to feel relief that the pain has ended,” the tribute continued, “but profound heartbreak at the finality of his time. I know I’m not the first or last Daddy’s girl to go through this, and I’m sending love and healing to anyone suffering the loss of a parent. I know his love is eternal and will find me in every realm.”
