Earlier, in a heartfelt post, Courtney shared a photo of herself cradling her newborn, revealing the unglamorous side of being a new mom. She wrote, “Under eye bags, hair needs to be washed, have milk all over me, still living in PJs, looking extremely tired… and tbh this season is really hard.” King’s honesty about the tough moments of motherhood strikes a chord with many.

She continued, “I’m still learning. Learning my baby, learning myself as a new mom, learning what this new chapter looks like for us.” Her words resonate with many new parents adjusting to their new roles while navigating the uncharted waters of caring for a newborn. Despite the exhaustion and occasional breakdowns, Courtney’s gratitude shines through.

Not only has the mother gathered strength, but CBum’s recent feats in the gym have made fans believe that he has also gained dad strength.
