“Update and more to come but baby girl Higgins has entered the world. She is healthy. @jessclarke_ is doing so well. I don’t yet have words for what just happened but the update right now is we have a daughter and Jess is recovering so well. The nurses and doctors who cared for us should be lifted high. Also I am biased but God spent a little more time on our baby girl because she’s real beautiful! This beauty will be revealed soon but first she needs a bath.”

He said, “I think as soon as we step into the hospital that anything that I’ve pushed back because it just doesn’t seem appropriate right now is going to come out and I’m going to be pretty on edge.”
Ben also said he could see himself getting queasy and passing out. Hopefully, fans hear the entire birth story soon
