Abbie and John got married in November 2018, and it’s worth noting that they had only been dating a month before. They previously shared a moonlit post revealing the gender of their first child in August 2019. “We couldn’t be more thrilled to announce… IT’S Daughter!!!” they captioned a photo of them kissing among a bunch of pink confetti.
