Lucky Blue Smith is now going to be a proud father of two children and he couldn’t be happier! The 21-year-old Mormon model posted a heartfelt video with his wife Nara Pellman and they showed off their new ultrasound photo. The pair have only been married for three months and this is their first child together.
Smith and Pellman kept their relationship fairly quiet until November 2019. That’s when fans started to notice that the two kept posting photos of one another. Smith officially announced to his fans the good news about his new girlfriend later on in the month. The rumour mill started to churn the month after that. Pellman made a social media post showing off her engagement ring. The couple officially tied the knot in California. They had a surprise beachside wedding that was limited to friends and family only.
After hearing the baby news, Smith’s sister actress Pyper America was thrilled to find out she was going to be an aunt again. “Mom and Dad!” she wrote in a comment on Instagram. “RHS! My sweet angel.”
Despite the well-wishers on the post, Smith has also come under fire recently for his relationship—or supposed lack thereof—with his oldest daughter. Before his marriage to Pellman, Smith was dating a woman named Stormi Bree Henley. The two welcomed their first child, Gravity, in July 2017.
Smith was getting trolled on social media for not posting many pictures of Gravity and rumours were flying that he barely saw her, despite having 50/50 custody. Smith laid the rumours to rest in a recent interview with L’Officiel magazine. He revealed that he made a conscious decision to keep Gravity off of his social media because he wanted her to have a normal childhood. Smith added that he also felt uncomfortable posting photos of his daughter when she was only two years old and can’t comprehend being “Instagram famous.”
“I don’t post my daughter on Instagram,” he explained. “I want to let her have a childhood before putting her in the public eye. I used to post her but then one day I decided it didn’t make sense anymore. I wanted it to be her decision.” The model admitted that he found the Internet trolls’ comments and all the rumours that he doesn’t see Gravity all that much hurtful. “People on Instagram have said I’m not there for my daughter and I’m not ever seen with her,” Smith said. “I have 50/50 custody and I know they’d say that even if she was sitting on my lap. There’s certain subjects that won’t affect me, but we’re all human. Certain ones hurt.”
