In a surprising turn of events, British singer Joss Stone has announced that she is pregnant again, just weeks after welcoming her adopted son, Bear. The 37-year-old singer, already a mother to two children, Violet, 3, and Shackleton, 2, with her husband, Cody DaLuz, shared the joyous news with her followers on social media, describing her emotions as “shocked” and “overwhelmed” by the unexpected twist in her growing family.
The announcement has stunned fans and family alike, as Joss and Cody had only recently completed the adoption of their son, Bear, when they learned they were expecting again. The singer’s revelation was made in a heartfelt video posted on Instagram, where she expressed both disbelief and excitement at the sudden turn of events.
“Honestly, shocked was an understatement,” Joss wrote in the video caption, adding, “Nothing and no one can take our joy now. We are so chuffed! Maybe we should call the ‘Less is More’ tour the preggo tour.”
Holding up a positive pregnancy test with a glowing smile, Joss couldn’t contain her excitement and disbelief. The news of her pregnancy comes at a particularly poignant time for the Stone-DaLuz family, as they are also navigating health concerns for their newly adopted son, Bear, who was born prematurely.
The Growing Family: Balancing Joy with Health Concerns
The excitement surrounding Joss Stone’s pregnancy is tempered by ongoing health challenges faced by her adopted son, Bear. Born prematurely, Bear has been struggling with lung issues, and doctors have advised the family to keep him away from public spaces for the time being to avoid any potential health risks.
In a separate video shared with her followers, Joss gave an honest and vulnerable glimpse into her life as she navigates the challenges of caring for Bear while also celebrating the news of her pregnancy. Sitting in her car with Bear by her side, Joss explained the precautions they are taking to protect him, especially as his lungs are still developing.
“I’m sat in the car with him because he’s so little that he can’t go out. His lungs are a little bit vulnerable,” she explained in the video. “I’m just here with little man, hanging out.”
The practical difficulties of balancing medical advice with the demands of everyday life became apparent in another part of the video. Joss humorously recounted the irony of being told to keep Bear at home for his health but then being asked to bring him to the doctor’s office, a place filled with germs and other potential risks.
“At the hospital, they said, ‘Don’t take him out anywhere,’ but then they said to make a doctor’s appointment,” Joss said, smiling wryly. “I thought, ‘Hang on, you just told me not to take him out, but now I have to bring him to the doctor’s office where there are all these germs!’”
Despite these logistical hurdles, Joss and Cody’s joy at expanding their family is evident. They have expressed their deep gratitude for the support they have received during this time, as well as their excitement for the future as they continue to grow their family in ways they never expected.
Adopting Bear: A Whirlwind Journey
The adoption of Bear has been an emotional and life-changing experience for Joss and Cody. The couple adopted Bear just in time for Thanksgiving, a moment of immense significance for the family. In a heartfelt video, Joss shared the moment when she told her children about their new sibling, expressing both the excitement and surprise that came with the rapid pace of the adoption process.
Joss was candid about how fast everything happened, sharing the whirlwind experience with her followers. The adoption, she explained, was a journey that moved quickly, and they had to adjust to the speed at which everything unfolded.
“Honestly, it all happened so fast,” Joss shared. “We weren’t really expecting things to move this quickly, but here we are, and we couldn’t be happier.”
The speed of the adoption process added an element of surprise to the experience, with Joss admitting that she was caught off guard by how quickly things progressed. The couple’s decision to adopt Bear was made after they had already grown their family with Violet and Shackleton, and the news was met with joy and anticipation as they prepared to welcome their new son into the fold.
A Humorous Mix-Up: The Hospital Confusion
While the adoption was largely smooth, it wasn’t without its moments of humor. Joss recounted how she and Cody initially went to the wrong hospital to meet their new son, leading to a few comical moments.
“We were in the wrong hospital. I knew it!” Joss laughed in the video. “That’s why Tummy Mummy said eighth floor, and the guy downstairs said second floor—because they’re totally different hospitals!”
Despite the initial confusion, the couple eventually made their way to the correct hospital, where they were able to meet Bear for the first time. The emotional moment when Joss held Bear in her arms was captured on video, and her voice trembled with gratitude as she reflected on the significance of the moment.
“It all happened just in time for Thanksgiving,” Joss said, her voice filled with emotion. “We’re just so grateful for this little one. He’s brought so much joy into our lives already.”
The adoption, though unexpected in its speed, has brought immense happiness to Joss and Cody. As they continue to bond with Bear and settle into their new routine as a family of five, the couple has embraced the unexpected twists in their journey with love, humor, and gratitude.
An Unpredictable Year Ahead
