Johnny Gaudreau’s wife, Meredith, brought a delightful smile to everyone’s face this past Monday by sharing the big news of their son’s arrival. Born on April 1, little Carter Michael Gaudreau entered this world weighing a healthy 8 pounds, 3 ounces and measuring 20.5 inches long.
Sharing her joy on Instagram, Meredith exclaimed that Carter “looks exactly like his daddy.” The resemblance is so uncanny that she couldn’t help but comment on it, adding a sweet “🥰” to her post.
Notably, this tiny bundle of joy isn’t wasting any time getting acquainted with the world of hockey. Meredith’s Instagram features Carter equipped with a puck, No. 13 jersey, and even a trophy, reflecting an early start to what might be a lifelong passion.
In another post, she expressed her deep love saying, “I love you so much my baby! We are going to have so much fun. I can’t wait to give you the best life, my special boy forever.”
Despite the happiness of Carter’s birth, the Gaudreau family still feels the shadow of Johnny’s untimely passing just seven months ago. He tragically lost his life in a bicycle vs. car accident involving a drunk driver, an incident that shook both the family and the wider community.
The man responsible, Sean Higgins, remains in custody, facing serious felony charges linked to the incident. The tragedy unfolded on what was supposed to be a day of celebration for the Gaudreaus, coinciding with a family wedding.
Johnny’s enduring legacy is fondly remembered across NHL rinks this season, where he is celebrated as a hero. Amid this sorrow, the arrival of Carter Michael adds a special ray of hope and joy to the Gaudreau family.
Carter Michael marks the third child of Johnny and Meredith, bringing a sense of continuation and new beginnings to this grieving yet hopeful family.
Carter Michaell’s birth is a cherished beacon of joy amidst the family’s memories of Johnny Gaudreau.
