Katie Gaudreau and her husband Devin Joyce announced they are expecting their first child, sharing a short black-and-white video with ultrasound images. The announcement came during a week when the family was present at the Winter Olympics in Milan, where Johnny Gaudreau was honored on the ice. Johnny and his brother Matthew were struck and killed while bicycling in New Jersey on the eve of Katie's 2024 wedding, which was postponed until 2025. The couple's news arrives as legal proceedings in the case continue.
Key details:
- Katie and Devin announced the pregnancy in an Instagram video that showed ultrasound images and described the news as a personal milestone.
- Family members were at the Winter Olympics when Johnny was honored and his widow, Meredith, brought the couple's children onto the ice following Team USA's gold-medal win.
- Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau were struck and killed by a motorist in 2024 on the eve of Katie's wedding, which was delayed to 2025.
- 45-year-old Sean Higgins is on trial in New Jersey on charges related to the collision; defense lawyers have argued the blood test used was of plasma rather than whole blood and said that could lower the reported BAC from .087 to .075, while prosecutors said they will have their experts review the new claims and may seek a new indictment. Higgins is due back in court on April 14.
Summary:
The family shared personal news at a time when public tribute and legal proceedings are both ongoing. The case against the driver charged in the brothers' deaths remains active, with the next scheduled court date on April 14.
