Pregnant Kimberly Perry Reveals Name of Her Baby Boy on the Way, Shares Hopes for 'Whimsical' Son
Kimberly Perry and husband Johnny Costello will welcome their son in August
Kimberly Perry is getting excited to welcome her baby boy.
Speaking with Audacy's KISS Country 99.9 in Miami on Tuesday, the mom-to-be, 39, was thrilled to chat about her little one, due in August.
"We are having a little boy the last week of August. We're so excited. His name is going to be Whittaker James Costello," she shared.
Of husband Johnny Costello, she added, "His Dad is 6'5", bleach blonde and he plays — I met him when he was in a Country Punk Rock band down in Austin, so we're hoping the genetics of baby boy are going to be a free-spirited, whimsical little music baby. That's what we're hoping for."
