Sims chronicled her birth-giving experience in a series of posts on her Instagram story. Sims said that she went into labor shortly after Koepka walked into their house, six weeks ahead of her due date. The model and wife of the LIV Golf star said that their son is going to be in the NICU for a “little while longer,” though she stressed that Crew is off oxygen and breathing on his own.
“He is meeting tiny milestones every day!” Sims wrote.
Sims also credit Koepka for providing support when she was in labor.
“I seriously have never seen or felt so much love and felt more like a team than I have with Brooks throughout all of this,” Sims wrote. “He is already such an amazing father and partner and I was so thankful he was home for this. Couldn't have done it without him.”
“He made me laugh when I needed to, cried with me, held me, did everything possible he could to help my healing in the hospital, and I'm just so grateful,” Sims added.
