Is there anything more absolutely *precious* than a Pentatonix love story getting its happily-ever-after with a bouncing bundle of joy? Because honey, we are LIVING for this moment!
Scott Hoying, the 34-year-old vocal powerhouse who’s been charming us with those acapella harmonies for years, just announced that he and his husband Mark Hoying—yes, they share a last name, how adorable is THAT—have officially joined the parenting club! And girl, they did NOT waste any time sharing the news with the world. On Tuesday, June 23rd, the couple posted a joint Instagram announcement that basically screamed “WE’RE DADS!” with enough emojis to make our hearts absolutely MELT.
But here’s where it gets even MORE fabulous, darling. Their precious daughter—who arrived via surrogate, because these two really said “let’s do this the modern way”—has been blessed with the absolutely *divine* name of Birdie James. And if you’re wondering where this gem of a name came from, well, the couple revealed they literally got inspired while SINGING about it. Because of course the Pentatonix boys would name their child while hitting those perfect harmonies. These men are nothing if not on-brand!
Mark, who’s 35 years old and works as a producer for the legendary Titanique, seems just as thrilled as his hubby. The fact that they posted together, sharing this monumental moment, has us absolutely SOBBING in the best way possible. This is what love looks like, people!
The internet, naturally, has been LOSING IT over the announcement. Fans are flooding the comments with congratulations, heart emojis, and probably a few happy tears of their own. Because let’s be real—seeing two people you’ve supported for years experience this kind of joy? That’s the good stuff we live for on the internet!
Scott and Mark have always been pretty private about their relationship, which honestly just makes these special moments even MORE meaningful. They’re not the type to broadcast every little thing, so when they DO share, you know it’s genuinely important and authentic. And little Birdie James is already the most iconic celebrity baby name of the summer, periodt!
What do you think? A) Birdie James is absolutely the most perfect celebrity baby name ever! B) It’s sweet, but you’ve heard cuter celeb baby names!
