Eldridge Toney is getting an exciting new role: Dad.
A little over two years after the death of his wife Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star Anna Cardwell, his fiancée Jessie English confirmed she is pregnant with their first child.
“We are extremely excited to announce!!,” Jessie wrote in a Jan. 25 Instagram post alongside a photo of the pregnancy test, onesie and sonogram pics. “Baby Toney due September!!! Eldridge Toney.”
The post also included a photo of Eldridge and Jessie smiling alongside each other as they snapped a selfie.
Baby Toney will mark the first child for Eldridge who helped raise Anna’s two daughters Kaitlyn, 12, and Kylee, 9, whom she welcomed from previous relationships, until her death from cancer in 2023. Anna’s mother June Shannon was awarded custody of Kaitylyn in 2024, while Kylee lives with her father. For her part, Jessie has a daughter from a previous relationship.
