On Wednesday, Houston broke the news that they welcomed a baby girl, who they named Zara.
He told Us Weekly, “Miya chose the name Zara because she just felt like it was exotic. [There was] no special reason. She just wanted our girl to have a memorable name that wasn’t the average name.”
Of parenthood, Houston admitted, “It still feels surreal, like, it hasn’t set in yet that we are actually not just babysitting one of our friends’ kids. But not getting any sleep definitely reminds us that we are now parents.”
The news comes as a big surprise since the pair never announced they were expecting.
Last summer, Houston and Dickey tied the knot at Eagle Glen Golf Club in Corona, California.
