This remarkable story unfolded on Wednesday, December 18. The Pioneer Woman star shared the news that her daughter Alex Drummond Scott and her husband Mauricio Scott had welcomed their first baby. After the exciting announcement, Drummond, at the age of 55, wrote an article on her website recounting the experience. She revealed that Scott was incredibly supportive of their daughter, to the point where it seemed she might not even be needed there.

"Alex did exceptionally well during childbirth, and Mauricio was right by her side every step of the way," Drummond wrote. "When we arrived in Dallas and got to the hospital, we witnessed Alex transitioning from latent to active labor.

Mauricio attended to Alex's every need, leaving the rest of the family questioning if they were even necessary. This act of love was a precious gift for Ladd and Ree Drummond, as they saw their daughter find a life partner who showed love through clear actions.
