We’re happy to be the bearer of some very happy news — Lisa and Rosco have welcomed their second baby. The loved-up couple from The Block are now parents to two little boys, 2-year-old Lando and five-day-old Jude.
Jude Ross Wilson (oh hi middle name!) was born on Friday, October 23 and arrived into the world in truly chaotic fashion. He was reportedly born in the shower cubicle in their local hospital, with Rosco missing the birth by seconds.
Have a baby and win The Block in the same week? How epic would that be!
Their real estate agent, Mark Nunn, confirmed the news to WHO, saying he was actually on his way to see the couple as he spoke to us on the phone.
“I’m actually just going to meet little Jude now,” he confirmed.
“They’re very, very thrilled. He’s only a few days old, and he’s going well. He’s all healthy. Lisa’s all healthy. So it went as well as I could possibly had hoped for.
“I’m delighted for them. They’re the best. They’re just good, really good human beings. I’m lucky that they chose me to be their agent. I’m very thankful.”
The Block auctions will take place this Saturday, with the winner announced during Sunday night’s episode.
Hey Jude!
Little Jude was born after two hours of intense labour, according to New Idea, and despite being a week past her due date, Lisa was given very little warning he was on his way.
She had driven herself to the hospital for a check-up appointment when she noticed some minor cramping. When they intensified, she contacted Rosco and suggested he make his way to her.
The midwife reportedly encouraged her to have a shower in the meantime, and to everyone’s surprise, she gave birth in the shower cubicle.
Rosco was greeted with the sight of his wife holding their baby to her chest, and it’s fair to say everyone was in shock (but absolutely delighted).
There was always a high chance Rosco would miss Lisa’s labour
As a logistics expert in the oil and gas industry, Rosco is a FIFO worker who was offshore on a project up until two days before Lisa’s due date: October 16.
The couple previously explained there was a big chance they wouldn’t be together for the birth.
“I’m due next Friday… They’re thinking he is very much looking like he’s sort of engaged and ready and low. So, yeah, who knows? It could be any day, and it could be without Ross because he’s obviously at work,” Lisa told us on October 9.
“If it happens overnight, he doesn’t have the means to get off the island. They only fly at night if it’s life or limb. So, yeah, we’re very aware that it might be something that he may not be there for, but hopefully that’s not the case.”
Ultimately, Rosco did miss the labour, but for a very different reason. Little Jude was too speedy.
