Dwight’s “team” posted the news via his Instagram on Aug. 21, stating: “Like the lyric from the song ‘Waterfall’ that Dwight wrote for Emily on his 3 Pears album says…Babies get born even in a…Pandemic lock down…With great joy and happiness Dwight & Emily announce the birth this past Sunday of their new baby boy.
