Kloss first announced that the family would grow when she shared the news via Instagram Carousel in March with the help of a boy.
“Three’s A Party🥹🫶🎉,” she captioned the four of them’s photo posts. The first image showed that the cross held Elijah. The model turned to the camera and found the toddler sitting just above the baby’s bump.
“Amazing!!! I’m so happy for you,” commented Gal Gadot.
In another photo, she was clad flat on her white top in denim jeans and a white top, close-up of a cross hugging her stomach, then posing in a skin-skinned black dress.
Cross ended his pregnancy and ended his pregnancy with a candid, black and white photo of the two boys hugging him.

Although Cross is known to keep her family life private, when she appeared in Aspire with the Emma Grede Podcast in May, the model gave her unusual insight into how she and Kushner create great teams as partners and parents.
“My husband, Josh, we’ve been together since we were 19. We grew up together. He’s always been my biggest champion,” she began.

The mother of three previously opened up to people in November 2023 and shared that she struggled with posture while pregnant with Elijah. “I’ve only been pregnant for nine months and found myself getting worse in posture, so now I’m relearning my entire anatomy and trying to fix it, trying to straighten my back.”
“My (fitness) routine has evolved,” Cross added. “It’s become more efficient. I feel my philosophy is getting more about strength in a sustainable way. So I do lightweight and weight exercise.
