‘Property Brothers’ Drew Scott is a dad after 2 years of infertility struggles

Drew Scott, famous for his hit HGTV show Property Brothers, and his wife, Linda Phan, are now officially parents! They welcomed their first baby together on May 4, and announced the happy news on their podcast At Home.

Their son, Parker James Scott, was born on the couple’s fourth wedding anniversary. Scott and Phan first shared the exciting news they were expecting last December—the couple had previously opened up about the two years they spent struggling with infertility. Their journey to becoming parents included IUI and IVF treatments.

“Our lives are forever changed,” they wrote on Instagram Wednesday evening. “Welcome to the world Parker James.”

Back in December, Drew Scott shared that the road to pregnancy had been an “adventure.”

“We know we’re not alone in this experience and that everyone’s is filled with unique challenges along the way,” he wrote at the time. “When we first started down this path, we quickly felt sooooo appreciative of the doctors we’ve been fortunate to work with, and fam and friends who supported us throughout, sharing their stories or simply just being there.”

“Our new baby boy, he’s a healthy baby, he’s adorable,” Drew says on the podcast. He asks Linda how she’s feeling a few weeks after their son’s arrival.

“Other than pooped, I feel great,” she says. “Very happy that he’s finally here. I’m still in awe and in disbelief. I feel like every step of this pregnancy has taken me time to adjust. And then as soon as I almost adjust, it’s onto the next milestone or the next thing. I feel like I’m always playing catchup with my feelings.”

Congratulations to the new parents and the happy family of three!
