Scotty revealed that they met each other in kindergarten and officially started dating in their senior year of high school. After tying the knot, the couple reportedly took time to travel and explore before taking steps to expand their family.
The artist announced that they were pregnant in June this year and revealed that she was surprised the baby was a boy because of how many girls there are in both families. The couple recently revealed the birth of the new baby and confirmed that both mother and child are healthy.

“It might not be every week, and we’ll see how the baby takes life, but it’s good, just selfish, to have Gabi and the baby there with me,” Scotty continued. “I don’t want to miss anything with him growing up.”
According to the artist, although the family was ready for the birth, they were surprised by the gender of the child. Scotty explained that he was the only boy on both sides of his family, and Gabi had two sisters in her, so they naturally thought she was a girl.
