Prior to their recent split, Hedlund and Roberts first met in March 2019 and then announced a little more than one year later that they were expecting a child together in August 2020. Rhodes was born in December of the same year.

“Thank you 2020 for getting one thing right. Our bright light Rhodes Robert Hedlund,” Roberts posted to social media following the birth of her and Hedlund’s son.
