Dancing With The Stars contestant Jimmie Allen is officially a girl dad again. The country music star and his wife Alexis Gale announced they were expecting a second child together back in June. The couple revealed the news by posting a funny montage of scenes from movies such as Knocked Up, Hamilton and Friday. The montage also included Home Alone 2's iconic line, "We did it again!" The couple got engaged at Disney World in July 2019, and planned to wed last year, but had to postpone their plans due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Jimmie and Alexis finally wed on May 27th at The Lake House Inn in Perkasie, Pa.
Though Jimmie is currently on tour, he's also competing on ABC's hit dancing show, and scoring quite well. The country music star dedicated his Disney Heroes Night performance to his late father last week. James "Big Jim" Allen died in 2019 at 65-years-old from kidney failure. Jimmie tearfully noted to his partner, Emma Slater, that he wanted to do everything he could do make his father proud because he was the perfect example of what a hero should look like. Jimmie added that his dad raised him to believe that he should "never make an excuse," which helped motivate his eventual, successful career.
Jimmie and Alexis welcomed their daughter Zara James Allen on Saturday, and the mama and the baby are both doing great. "The new addition to our family is here and we couldn't be happier to finally meet her. Alexis, you're a champion, I love you and so thankful for you," Jimmie wrote in his Instagram caption. The exciting news comes after Jimmie suddenly cancelled his tour date in North Carolina due to a "family emergency." A few hours later, Jimmie followed up his Instagram story with a baby emoji, hinting that his wife was in labor. Jimmie and Alexis are also parents to 1-year-old daughter Naomi. Jimmie is also a father to his 7-year-old son Aadyn from a previous relationship.
Jimmie and Alexis have brought fans along their pregnancy journey, posting about their growing family early on. Jimmie even revealed to fans that they were stuck on naming their daughter because they felt like they were going to have a boy, and therefore only focused on male names. The country star joked that now that the gender is revealed he wanted to name his future daughter Arya Stark Allen because he's a huge Game Of Thrones fan, but his wife shot that idea down quickly. Alexis then revealed their daughter's name in September.
Jimmie has had a busy month between touring, dancing and becoming a father to another beautiful child. The country star's recent post just radiates love as Jimmie, Alexis and the baby all look so happy and in love. Now that Jimmie's baby is born, it's time to fly back to Los Angeles to compete on Monday's episode of Dancing With The Stars - Grease night.
