Oh boy, oh boy! Peta Murgatroyd and Maks Chmerkovskiy, our fave dance floor pros from “Dancing with the Stars,” spilled the beans last month. They’re expecting baby number three. Can you believe it? Just seven months after baby number two made his grand entrance in June 2023. And guess what? They’ve just let us in on a little secret about the new bundle of joy.
So, there was this gender reveal party. Picture this: the whole fam jam, including the grandparents, all decked out in chic black, striking poses for the camera. Then, the moment of truth. Peta and Maks, standing under the open sky, pop these smoke poppers. Boom! Blue smoke everywhere. It’s a boy! Yup, they’re about to welcome their third son into the world. Shai Aleksander, the 7-year-old big bro, and Rio John, the 9-month-old cutie, are getting another partner in crime.
Swipe left to catch a glimpse of the reveal on Peta’s Insta. It’s adorable, really.
In her post, Peta’s all jokes and giggles about becoming a “wolf pack Mumma.” Three boys, can you even? She’s over the moon, thinking about the chaos and laughter at family dinners. And get this – she’s due just a couple of weeks after Rio turns one. Talk about timing! She’s even fishing for baby names on Insta, something short and sweet, 3 to 5 letters. Any ideas?
Maks had a heart-to-heart with PEOPLE magazine, too. He’s living the dream, folks. Excited is an understatement. He’s been daydreaming about this family life for ages, and here he is, making it happen with Peta. And, oh, they’re totally open to name suggestions. Seems like they’re scratching their heads over the perfect name.

Big congrats to Peta and Maks! Here’s to finding the perfect name for your new little guy.
And me? I’m Kate Fann, just your average East Tennessee gal. When I’m not typing away or getting lost in Insta-scrolls, you might find me wine tasting, playing with makeup, baking something scrumptious, or hiking the gorgeous Smoky Mountains with my hubby Casey and our two sons, Quinn and Noah.
