GOSSIP & RUMORS: Madison LeCroy on her excitement over becoming a girl mom after giving birth

Madison LeCroy is a (southern) mom of two.

The reality star, 34, who welcomed her second child, daughter Teddi, with husband Brett Randle on Sunday, June 29, opened up about becoming a girl mom for the first time.

LeCroy also shares son, Hudson, 12, with her ex-husband, Josh Hughes.

“I would say, obviously, I’ve experienced the boy mom and it’s a true thing, so I’m super excited to be a girl mom for the first time,” she exclusively told The Post on Wednesday, just three days after giving birth.

“Everything’s pink and girly. I’m already just having such a blast,” LeCroy gushed. “So I know it’s just going to get better each day. I didn’t think I was going to get both, to be honest. So I’m very lucky to be able to experience it.”

Hudson, meanwhile, couldn’t be happier to welcome a little sibling into their family.

“Honestly, at first I was a little worried he was going to be jealous,” LeCroy confessed. “But, of course, he’s just taken on the role where he’s almost a little bit more protective than me already. So I am happy to see it. And I know he’s going to be the best big brother ever. She’s very lucky to have him.”

Through it all, the “Southern Charm” star has Randle, whom she tied the knot with in 2022, by her side.

“Not that he ever told me ‘no’ anyways, but he’s definitely not told me ‘no’ in the past eight or nine months,” she shared. “Anything I want or we need, he’s on top of it. He’s been being there for me and doing things without me even having to ask. I know I picked the right one when you end up expecting a child with them and you realize how it’s going to be. I definitely feel like I hit the lottery with that.”

LeCroy underwent a C-section at 34 weeks, but despite going into labor early, she was ready to enter the hospital at any moment.

“I had full glam, so I made sure to have a blowout and I made sure to have light, fresh face of makeup, just for pictures’ sake,” she recalled. “I definitely think that for me, good hair and good makeup is all I can do for now.”

LeCroy also touched on the best piece of motherhood advice she’s received, and it came from someone very special to her: her late father Ted LeCroy, who died in 2023.

“Just have grace for yourself,” LeCroy stated. “Obviously, when it comes to your children, let them be individually who they are going to be and don’t try to live through them too much. My dad would always say, ‘Don’t kill their spirit.’ Whether that means they’re a little unhinged or not just let them be who they’re going to be. I’m definitely going to take that into consideration.”

Fans can expect to see the former hairstylist step into her new role as mom-of-two on the next season of “Southern Charm.” 

As for who from the cast was supportive throughout LeCroy’s pregnancy, the influencer shouted out her close besties.

“The girls have always been there for me,” she expressed. “So I would say Venita [Aspen] has always been there. Rodrigo [Reyes] and Salley [Carson], of course. So everyone’s been pretty, pretty great.”

On Thursday, LeCroy opened up about her birth experience while talking to US Weekly.

“I was in labor for 48 hours basically [because] my water broke at home,” she recounted.

LeCroy added that she began going into labor at 2:30 a.m. after being out at a concert for her mom’s birthday. At the time, Randle, who is a firefighter, was at work in California.

“I ran upstairs, and I was like, ‘Mom, I don’t have anything packed,’”  LeCroy said. “It was funny ’cause me and her both were like in my closet trying to pick out what we were gonna wear to the hospital.”

“We kind of prolonged the labor, and Brett got here and then we waited another day and had the C-section, and there she was five minutes later.”

LeCroy had the perfect song for Teddi to make her entrance into the world.

“My doctor, she’s amazing. And at this point she was, like, a friend, and we were sitting there talking and we were like, ‘What [is[the playlist gonna be for this?’” she detailed. “And we were joking around, we’re like, ‘Girl power, let’s go Taylor Swift.’ So we did, we rocked out to Taylor Swift during the surgery.”

LeCroy elaborated, “So that’s what she was born to. Now don’t ask me what song, because at that point I don’t have no idea. But yeah, girl mode all the way.”

Teddi — who is named after LeCroy’s late father — ended up spending a “few days” in the NICU due to “protocol” for babies who are born early.

“She’s a little. She’s only five pounds, but she’s breathing on her own and hasn’t needed any oxygen or anything like that. She’s kind of a little trooper,” LeCroy revealed. “[Doctors] were shocked with how early she was that she was gonna be this independent. So I was like, ‘Oh, I wasn’t shocked at all.’”
