Rona Samson and Eric Tai are having a baby boy.
The couple made the announcement through Instagram on Tuesday, December 25, as they celebrated Christmas with their family.
For their baby's gender reveal, the former It's Showtime! host performed a dead lift with a pair of black bags filled with powder placed on each side of the weights.
Blue powder poured out of the black bags when Eric dropped the barbell, revealing the gender of their first baby.
Rona, who wished for a baby girl, shared the video on Instagram with the caption, "Merry Christmas Everyone! IT’S A . . . . . . . . . . . . . BOY! #RoadToBabyTai #genderreveal #christmas"
