“Enjoying the last week of my second trimester by hiking to the Cathedral Rock Vortex,” Anstead wrote. “Thank you [L’Auberge de Sedona] for arranging this magical hike. The vortex vibes have us feeling relaxed and zen… Rest of the day will consist of a pregnancy massage followed by custom crystal bracelet making and a sunset dinner.”
Ant shared his Father’s Day tribute to his children on Saturday. Ant has two children, Amelie and Archie, while Anstead shares 8-year-old Taylor and 3-year-old Brayden with El Moussa.
“Being a dad and now a step dad is one of life’s biggest privileges,” Anstead wrote, alongside a gallery of photos with his children. “The moment you hold a child, everything changes! To all the dads out there… the step dads…. and those men that just take up the role of dad!! hats off for just being dads! You don’t realise how important you are! I owe my dad so much! And I’m a better dad because of my kids! I owe them so much too! Happy Father’s Day chaps! You deserve to be spoilt today.”
