“We are so grateful and excited to share that we will be welcoming another baby into our family 🤍🪿,” the 27-year-old social media influencer posted Friday on Instagram. “This news feels very surreal and has already been such a bright light to us during some of our darkest days.”
Kiser stressed her family’s privacy “will always be my priority” and said she was unsure how much she would share about the pregnancy.
“This baby has already brought so much hope and joy into our home, and we are treasuring every moment of it together,” she said.
Kiser thanked her fans for well wishes and support.
The news comes one year after her son, Trigg Kiser, drowned at home.
The child fell in May 2025 into a pool at the family’s Chandler, Arizona, home, police said.
Authorities at the time said they responded to a drowning call and found the child unconscious and being pulled out of a pool.
His father, Brady Kiser, said that he was momentarily distracted when the incident unfolded and that Emilie was away at the time.
In July 2025, authorities said Brady Kiser would not face charges in connection with his son’s death.
Since then, Emilie Kiser has been vocal on social media about water safety for children, urging parents to install pool fences and door alarms with working batteries, and ensuring children have swimming sessions.
The couple also share a son, Teddy, who was born in March 2025.
