“Rylee Louise Schutt was born on Tuesday evening following a 28-week pregnancy, weighing in at 858 grams,” wrote Schutt in a Twitter thread. “Our little miracle was born via emergency C-section…from 24 weeks we were told our complications meant she could need to arrive anytime onwards. So for almost five weeks we had our overnight bags packed, wondering how far we could get,” said Schutt.
“Now she’s thriving on the outside a long road ahead but little miss is already smashing goals. Jess was/is one tough cookie, incredible to be a part of it all and I couldn’t be more proud of my wife already the amazing Mum I knew she would be. I am a lucky human to have two such beautiful girls in my life,” concluded Schutt’s thread. Schutt married her long-time partner Holyoake in March 2019.
