Dylan Dreyer gives birth to third baby boy with husband Brian Fichera
It’s a party of five.
Dylan Dreyer and husband Brian Fichera have welcomed their third child: a baby boy named Russell James Fichera.
Dreyer’s “Today” show co-anchors announced the news Wednesday morning, revealing that Russell was born at 2:38 a.m. and weighed 5 pounds, 5 ounces and was 18 inches long.
“Mom and babe doing just fine,” Hoda Kotb shared. “He did come early. He could not stay.”
“He was not waiting,” Savannah Guthrie added. “He’s like, ‘I’m excited to join the party.’ We’re sending our love and can’t wait to meet that babe. It’s just the best! So much good stuff.”
The “Today” show meteorologist, 40, shared early Tuesday that she was hospitalized after going into early labor with her bundle of joy.

“My water broke Sunday evening and I’ve been hanging at the hospital. Our little guy is anxious to get out and meet us!” Dreyer captioned a selfie from her hospital bed on Instagram. “Doctors are closely monitoring both of us and trying to keep him on the inside for a little while longer to get stronger. All is well!”

She added, “Looks like we’ll be getting to meet our littlest boy sometime this week…6 weeks early! Guess he couldn’t handle being left out of all the fun his brothers have been having! We’ll gladly take any extra prayers you have 🙏🙏❤️❤️.”
Dreyer and Fichera, 34, are also parents to 4-year-old son Calvin and 1-year-old son Oliver, who are now big brothers to baby Russell.
