What's even more special is that their bundle of joy is a palindrome baby or those who are born on a date that reads the same backward as forward.

In the comments section, many of their fans showered them with their heartfelt congratulations.

Young previously opened up about how she was hesitant about welcoming a child as it was a big responsibility.

"Getting pregnant is always a risk. Sabi nila it's a choice and it's a risky thing for the human body. I guess I'm afraid of complications for myself and for the child if I ever do get pregnant. That's my number one fear, getting sick or dying from having a baby," she told her husband in their podcast.

"My body change is something that I am scared of because I don't know how my body will react to pregnancy so that's a very unknown kind of thing to me, even though I've had friends and family get pregnant in the last couple of years. I'm just scared of the unknown," she added.

Nevertheless, Daez assured her that he'll be there to support her no matter what, saying, "We're going with the flow, and it's really up to Bonez, because like you said, you are the baby carrier, and I just tell them that I'm just here to support."

The pair tied the knot back in 2020 after being together for a decade.
