Pregnant Joss Stone reveals her ‘crazy’ C-section plans as she gives a bump update just days before birth

BBG News

Joss Stone shared her unconventional delivery plans, which involve a C-section, during a pregnancy update she posted on Monday, mere days before her expected due date.

38-year-old artist became a mother through adoption late last year with the arrival of her son named Bear, and shortly after, she revealed that she is expecting a child as well.

She also has Violet, three, and Shackleton, two, with her partner and former US Marine Cody DaLuz. 

In an Instagram post this week, Joss mentioned that she is only a few days from welcoming her fourth child into the world.

Here’s my latest update: I’m really noticeably bigger these days. We’re almost at the finish line, just four days left! The baby is due to arrive on Saturday.

Joss added, “It’s surprising that Violet attends a dance class and she has a dance performance coming up this Saturday.

In a casual conversation, I informed my doctor, who happened to be attending a concert in Nashville, that we needed to adjust the scheduled C-section due to our daughter’s dance recital. He replied reassuringly, saying he would simply reschedule it for us.

As I shift my schedule, dance performance is scheduled for 1:10 pm today, followed by a prompt visit to the hospital around 2 pm. Needless to say, this day promises to be quite hectic!

The musician labeled the video, “Happy Mother’s Day Mondays! I can hardly wait. It won’t be much longer now. Oh, the anticipation!

Shortly before Christmas, it was disclosed by Joss (whose birth name is Joscelyn Eve Stoker) that she was taken aback upon learning she was pregnant once more, as the pair had just welcomed their child named Bear into their family.

The performer legally took custody of Bear at only a month old, who weighed merely 4 pounds and 12 ounces. During his initial months, the couple kept him inside due to underdeveloped lungs.

In the year 2020, the couple, who currently reside in Nashville, Tennessee, got together. This was after Joss had to leave the UK due to a chilling kidnap scheme, with Kevin Liverpool and Junior Bradshaw, two individuals who were later convicted for plotting to kill the celebrity at her rural east Devon residence.

They would go on to secretly marry before starting their ever expanding family.

In 2023, Joss revealed she and Cody had started the adoption process to expand their brood.

In an interview with HELLO! magazine, Joss shared about their adoption journey, saying, “We’re working on completing our home evaluation at the moment. Here’s hoping everything goes smoothly, as we dream of potentially expanding our family to around 25 children.

In their own lives, Cody was adopted and Joss, in conversations with followers via social media, has shared reasons behind their desire to adopt a child.

She explained that the existence of both Cody and Bear stems from their birth mothers’ deep love, as they made adoption plans for them.

‘In truth, biological mothers often don’t receive the appreciation they truly deserve. Their love, it seems, is more self-sacrificing than I ever thought possible. It’s a fact. We feel incredibly fortunate to be a part of this wonderful, continuous process.’

Previously, Joss shared that she intends to return to Devon from her present location in Nashville before her children begin school, as she wishes them to have an upbringing similar to the one she experienced herself.

In an interview with Sunday Times magazine, she expressed that they plan to relocate to Devon before Violet starts school, as she desires her children to experience a childhood similar to hers – filled with horseback riding, tree climbing, and close proximity to family. She expresses hope that Cody will enjoy their new surroundings.

Now that she’s a parent, the singer of “You Had Me” appreciates living at a more relaxed tempo. She feels grateful for having kids as it provides her with a convenient reason to slow down her hectic lifestyle.

She mentioned that having children has caused her pace to slow down. This delightful situation has provided her with a perfect alibi for not overfilling her daily planner. Now, touring takes on a new dimension…

Every time, I embark on a nocturnal bus journey, ensuring my little ones are blissfully asleep. With two extra hands needed due to Cody’s work commitments, this upcoming trip has me questioning the unknown. Initially, we intended to handle it alone, but circumstances might compel us to seek assistance.
