Jana Kramer, celebrated for her role in One Tree Hill, and her fiancé Allan Russell are embracing the joy of parenthood with the arrival of their first child together. Baby Roman James Russell was born on November 13th, weighing 6 pounds and 1 ounce, marking a significant milestone in their journey as a couple.
Expressions of Joy and Gratitude
The couple shared their happiness with People, stating, “Allan and I are both overjoyed and truly grateful to announce the birth of our son, Roman James Russell. We feel blessed to have been given the chance to create something so special together.” Jana elaborated on their choice of name, explaining, “The name Roman really isn’t inspired by anyone, it’s just a strong name that we both love. But James, his middle name, was both of our grandpas’ names, so that was a nod to them.” This thoughtful naming reflects their deep familial ties.
Cherishing Birth Moments
Jana took to Instagram to provide her followers with a glimpse into her birthing experience. One touching photo captures her holding Roman just after his birth, radiating love and warmth. Another image shows Allan supporting her in the delivery room, showcasing the couple’s strong bond during this momentous occasion.
A Journey to Parenthood
The 39-year-old actress first revealed her pregnancy in June, just one month after her engagement announcement. Sharing photos of her positive pregnancy test, she expressed her feelings of gratitude, stating, “Beyond blessed and grateful for this baby to be a part of our story.” Allan, 42, humorously commented on the situation, jokingly predicting that Jana’s cravings would lead to a shortage of yellow-colored carbs or cheese, adding a lighthearted touch to their journey.
Navigating Family Dynamics
This new addition to their family comes as Jana has two children from her previous marriage to Mike Caussin: a 7-year-old daughter named Jolie and a 4-year-old son named Jace. Allan also has a teenage son from a prior relationship. Despite past challenges, including infidelity in her marriage, Jana and Mike have prioritized co-parenting, coming together for important moments in their children’s lives. This commitment to family demonstrates their focus on providing a loving environment for their kids.
Warm congratulations are in order for Jana Kramer and Allan Russell as they begin this exciting new chapter with baby Roman. Their journey as parents will surely be filled with joy, growth, and shared experiences as they navigate the beautiful challenges of raising a family together.
