Allison Kuch and Isaac Rochell are expanding their family. “We’re having a baby!!!!✨👶🏼☁️,” the pair wrote via a joint Instagram post on Sunday, November 9, announcing they’re expecting their second baby Alongside the announcement, the couple shared a series of photos from a maternity photoshoot including Kuch, 30, holding up an ultrasound picture as Rochell, also 30, smiled and held her hand. In one image, the TikToker and former NFL player’s daughter Scottie Bee, 23 months, planted a kiss on her mother’s growing stomach, while in another picture, the soon-to-be big sister reached her arms out to hold the ultrasound. Kuch and Rochell met while attending the University of Notre Dame and started dating in 2014. The couple got engaged in 2020, tying the knot in Cabo San Lucas the following year. Kuch and Rochell later revealed that they actually eloped prior to the wedding. The pair became parents when they welcomed their daughter in December 2023. “I don’t even know how to feel, but I’m excited, that’s all I have,” Rochell could be heard saying in a video shared at the time, while Kuch replied, “I love you so much.” Days before announcing her second pregnancy, Kuch shared on the Monday, November 3, episode of the “Two Parents & A Podcast” that she and Rochell had been talking about their next child. “It’s funny. A lot of people think that he wants a boy because like sports, which I’m like, ‘That’s toxic.’ Whatever. But he’s like, ‘Oh, if I didn’t have a boy, I wouldn’t be sad,’” Kuch explained. Rochell replied, “No. I’ve been around men my whole life. Like it’s been straight men my whole life. Other than my wife. I have a brother. Football. It’s all men. So I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’m cool with a girl.’” The pair explained that they want to have two children — and “maybe a third,” with Kuch noting that the “idea of two sounds lonely.” “Unless we get rocked by the second kid, I feel like we’re going to have easily three,” Rochell shared. “I mean, we love having a kid.” After welcoming daughter Scottie, exclusively opened up to Us Weekly about her “journey” of self-discovery and admitted that it’s “been tough” to figure out her identity while navigating motherhood and postpartum. “There’s so many life changes [with] becoming a mom and also Isaac not playing football right now, I’m like, ‘Wait, whoa, what’s going on?’” Kuch told Us in November 2024. With the ups and downs, Kuch praised the support of a “good partner” like Rochell. The athlete, for his part, joked that he “wouldn’t have thought” his wife “would have a harder time” than him with him being a free agent at the time. (Rochell announced his retirement from the NFL in February after seven seasons.) Rochell, for his part, added, “I just try to give her space. I mean, my phrase is always like, ‘Whatever you need, we’ll do it.’ If she needs help with something, I’m like, ‘We’ll do it, it’s not a big deal.’”
