John Kramer has shown her pregnancy progress since discovering that she and her fiancé, Alan Russellare expecting their first child together.
“We have kept one more secret from you (I promise this is the last announcement…at least for a while 🤣) but I’m pregnant!!!!” the A tree hill alum wrote via Instagram in June 2023, several weeks after Russell proposed. “Beyond blessed and grateful to have this baby part of our story. I never thought I’d see the word pregnant again on a test, but I’m thankful to @clearblue for making it as clear as ever.”
In Kramer’s Instagram announcement, she debuted her baby bump in a series of pregnancy photos featuring the Scottish football coach and her two eldest children: Jolie and Jace, who she shares with ex-husband Mike Caussin.
The “I Got the Boy” singer revealed in January 2023 that she had started dating Russell.
‘I am such a lover. I like to love. It’s not something where I think, ‘I have to get married [again]but you know, I definitely found my person,” Kramer exclusively shared Us weekly the following April, gushing about the former soccer pro. “He’s incredible. He’s just really secure. I’m just different with him. I’m calmer. And again, I’ve never felt safe in a relationship and it’s just — it’s really nice to feel that.
Kramer and the retired athlete began their relationship by long-distance dating — she lives in Nashville with her kids while Russell works in England as a coach for Norwich FC — before eventually joining her in the United States. Russell, who shares an older son from a previous relationship, has even struck up a friendly bond with Caussin during his whirlwind romance with Kramer.
“Everyone just gets along really well and that’s really nice,” said the country singer Us in April 2023. “Like, one time I sat back and just kind of looked at… I thought, ‘Okay, things can change and it can be beautiful.’ I’m at football games and it’s just so cool. It’s just a whole circle. Like, all the dust has settled and it just becomes whole again.
After Russell popped the question to Kramer, the former soccer pro responded sweetly.
“[Mike] was like, ‘Hey, I’m really happy for you. Allan is a great guy, ”Kramer – who was married before Michael Gambino for less than a year in 2004 and up to Johnathon Schaech from 2010 to 2011 – recalled on a May 2023 episode of her “Whine Down” podcast. “Actually, I started crying because he says, ‘Of all people, you deserve to have someone who loves and respects you and you deserve this.’ He says, “After all I’ve done to you, you deserve this more than anyone.” It meant so much to me that he said that.”
