Overview

  • Brandi Rhodes announced on Aug. 29 that the couple welcomed daughter Leilani Ella Runnels, writing, “Welcome to the world Leilani Ella Runnels… Thank you God for answered prayers.”
  • The arrival surprised fans because the couple had not publicly disclosed a pregnancy.
  • Leilani joins big sister Liberty Iris, 4, expanding the Rhodes family to four.
  • Cody reshared the news and posted a photo of Liberty wearing a “Big Sister” hat as WWE figures including Natalya, Alexa Bliss and Lillian Garcia offered congratulations.
