The announcement was made on Wednesday, July 1st, 2024. In the clip recorded approximately 24 hours after giving birth, the 34-year-old expressed her astonishment at how quickly the event unfolded. “It’s so magical. I can’t believe we’re here right now. Things escalated so quickly, that was crazy,” she remarked while gently holding her sleeping baby.
In the heartwarming video, Jett commended Campbell for her bravery during delivery, describing her as “just amazing.” He expressed relief and joy at welcoming a healthy child and mother, saying, “I’m so relieved to have a healthy baby and a healthy wifey,” while Campbell acknowledged his support, stating, “I couldn’t have done it without you.”
The couple, well-known for their online presence, first met in 2016 in Philadelphia and began capturing the hearts of their followers in 2024. Campbell initially gained popularity by featuring Jett in her TikTok videos, where he became famous for his charming remarks. The two often shared humorous banter, with Jett routinely complimenting Campbell with phrases like, “Pookie looks absolutely fire tonight.”
Reflecting on the birth experience, Campbell described it as “a very crazy birth story”, but reassured followers that both mother and baby were in good health. In a light-hearted moment, Jett jokingly referred to his wife as a “baby-making machine,” to which Campbell responded with affection, saying, “We love you so much.”
The Pucketts were married in 2018 and welcomed their first child, a daughter named Paloma, in November 2024. Jett affectionately referred to Paloma as a “mini Pookie” and shared that witnessing her birth was an unforgettable experience he would treasure forever.
In a previous statement to the media, the couple elaborated on their daughter’s name. “We are overjoyed to announce the birth of our daughter Paloma Campbell Puckett,” they said. They explained that “Paloma,” meaning “dove” in both Spanish and Italian, holds significant symbolism in various cultures, representing love, grace, and peace. The middle name, Campbell, pays homage to Campbell’s family heritage.
Recently, the couple hosted a baby sprinkle to celebrate their latest addition, inviting close family and friends to an Italian-themed garden party with cuisine from the popular Atlanta restaurant La Grotta. Campbell shared her feelings about the event, stating, “Having everyone together that loves us is so special, and this baby is so loved already. We have the most supportive community around us and feel so blessed.”
Looking ahead, Campbell revealed that both she and Jett have always envisioned a large family. Their daughter Paloma, now 19 months old, is expected to embrace her new role as a big sister brilliantly. Campbell noted that Paloma has already shown signs of “big sister energy,” treating her dolls with affection by feeding them and wiping their mouths—an endearing display of motherly instinct at such a young age.
As the Puckett family continues to grow, their journey offers a glimpse into the joys and challenges of parenting while navigating their public lives. With a loving community surrounding them, the couple looks forward to the adventures that lie ahead with their expanding family.
