Maddie Font had a reassuring message to Jana Kramer, who shared her tearful reaction after listening to Maddie & Tae’s romantic ballad “Strangers.” Font, one half of the award-winning duo with Taylor Kerr, said she was no stranger to the pregnancy emotions that Kramer experienced while listening to the song.
Kramer shared her “pregnancy diary” on her Instagram story. She and her fiancé, Scottish soccer star Allan Russell, are expecting their first child together this year. Kramer revealed on the Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast this week that she’s pregnant with a baby boy.
“This is me crying. This is Allan making fun of me for crying,” Kramer said with a laugh, in part, in the video she shared the video on her Instagram story. “I was listening to the Maddie & Tae ‘Strangers’ song, (and) I’m like, how were we ever strangers? And I started crying. And then he started laughing.”
Kramer, who is currently filming, posted on another slide on her Instagram story later in the day, listening to “Strangers” again and writing: “I think the heat on set is getting to me BUT [Allan Russell] this should be our wedding song??!”
Maddie & Tae shared Kramer’s video on their own Instagram story, and Font responded on the next slide. Font announced earlier this year that she’s also pregnant with a baby boy, Baby No. 1 for her and her husband, Jonah Font. The couple’s firstborn child is due in September.
Font, who also shared Kramer’s Instagram story that suggested making “Strangers” her wedding song, assured Kramer that the emotions during pregnancy were all too relatable.
“So, I just reposted our friend Jana Kramer. She is pregnant with a baby boy, as well. It’s boy season right now. And she said that ‘Strangers,’ our song, was making her cry. And girl, you are not alone. Those pregnancy hormones? No freaking joke. In my first trimester, at least the first 8 or 9 weeks, if I woke up and the sun was not shining, and it was raining or gloomy, I would cry. I would wake up, look out the window, if the sun wasn’t shining…all the tears.”
