This is Vernon’s second child. The Radio DJ has a 14-year-old son, Ethan, from his first marriage.

Jayne Tham and Vernon A got married in 2014. They had met through mutual friends on Facebook.

The relationship made news then, because of the couple’s 18-year age gap.

Jayne had earlier shared some concerns on how parenthood was going to affect her marriage, “While I can’t wait to meet the little one in less than 4 weeks, I know that I’m going to miss our couple time for sure.”

“Our friends know us as a couple who spend a lot of time together so having a baby will definitely change things up for us.”

She had also revealed some challenges she faced during her pregnancy, which included backache, and swollen hands and legs.

“I’ve been experiencing swollen feet, legs, hands and yes.. my face too. And sometimes it would swell till it hurts so bad or just go totally numb, in which I feel totally helpless about.”

“I tell myself that this is all worth it and I know it is for the efforts we’ve put in to have him, and that this is all part and parcel of pregnancy… hey there’s no such thing as a perfect pregnancy, amirite?”

  Entering my final trimester and I can’t wait to meet my baby boy. Getting bigger each day is an uphill struggle cos I’ve started to walk slower (aka waddle), not so much because of the additional weight but cos of water retention I’ve been experiencing swollen feet, legs, hands and yes.. my face too And sometimes it would swell till it hurts so bad or just go totally numb, in which I feel totally helpless about. I tell myself that this is all worth it and I know it is for the efforts we’ve put in to have him, and that this is all part and parcel of pregnancy… hey there’s no such thing as a perfect pregnancy, amirite? Whenever he kicks or squirms inside, I catch myself smiling and treasuring his movements cos in 2+ months time, it’ll no longer just be us 2 having our “moments”. No doubt his activity wakes me up at 5am every day without fail, I’m happy and blessed to be carrying him. I never knew how expecting mothers could love a being that they’ve never met so much but now I finally understand. It’s true — I already love you before you know it, baby boy #28weekspregnant

And let’s not forget the mood swings.

“I’ve had my fair share of hormonal episodes this pregnancy and I must say, it’s not easy to handle me on my shittiest days”, wrote Jayne.

“But my husband however, somehow has the patience that is unwavering, a quality that hasn’t diminished by a single bit during our 7 years together.”

“And when I look at him during my meltdowns, I feel undeserving of this person who usually takes no shit from anyone else. His tenderness draws the rawest of emotions out of me when we talk — uncontrollable outpour of tears of sadness, extreme frustration, but also and most importantly, a heavy sense of gratitude.”

“I truly am grateful to have married this man who will soon be the father of my son. Thank you for being the most patient. I can’t wait to begin on our next chapter together.”

Aww…Here’s congratulating this couple and wishing them love, peace and happiness!
