Ree and her husband Ladd, whom she has been married to for 28 years, were able to arrive at the Dallas hospital in time for the birth. 'Mauricio attended to Alex's every need, to the point that the rest of us questioned if we even needed to be there,' Ree gushed. 'What a gift to Ladd and me, for Alex to have a partner in life who demonstrates his love through such clear action.'.

She described the baby as 'perfect,' adding: 'I'm saying that with as much objectivity as I can. But I'm not kidding...she is perfect. Like, if you looked up "perfect" in Miriam Webster, it would reference Sofia Scott, and maybe even show a photo of her. Although that would probably technically be an encyclopedia.'.
