Baby boy #2 joins big brother, six-year-old Shai, who was welcomed to the dancing family in January of 2017. Peta and Maks’ journey to expanding their family has been marked by heartbreak and struggle. Back in June, Peta shared that the famous couple had three miscarriages. The first devastating loss occurred in the Autumn of 2020, with a second miscarriage just nine months later. In October of 2021, she had yet another pregnancy loss — this one, before she even learned she was expecting.
