Lindsay Arnold is soaking up every moment of being a mom of three.
The former Dancing with the Stars professional, 32, who recently welcomed her third baby, a son, with her husband Samuel Cusick, revealed her baby boy’s name and noted the sweet connection he shares with his grandpa. Her son, Hayes Duff Cusick, has the same middle name as Arnold’s dad.
“Hayes Duff Cusick 🩵 our son blessed our lives forever on 6/10/26 at 8:01am🫶🏻 7lbs 18.5in of pure heaven and we feel so beyond grateful that he is ours 🥹,” she captioned the post, which featured a few pictures of the newborn. “Middle name twins with his grandpa Joshua Duff Arnold🥹 #babyboy #babyboyname.”
Later, the newly minted mom of three shared a video of her daughters — June, 3, and Sage, 5 —meeting their baby brother for the first time. The clip, which was set to an instrumental of Turning Page’s “Sleeping at Last,” showed the excited big sisters holding and kissing the newborn in the hospital room.
“A moment we will never forget 🥹🩵,” Arnold captioned the adorable video.
Arnold first announced the news that she welcomed baby Hayes on Thursday, June 11 via Instagram. In the photos, Arnold smiled while holding the little one as he wore a blue beanie, and her husband posed along with them before holding his son for the first time.
“Baby boy is here and we are so grateful and so in love 🥹💙,” Arnold captioned the post, adding a hashtag that indicated she had a c-section birth.
Since announcing that she was expecting her third child with Cusick in November 2025, Arnold has been open about her pregnancy journey on her social media platforms.
On April 22, just a few months before she gave birth, Arnold shared a TikTok, bringing her followers along with her as she cleaned out a closet filled with baby clothes from her daughters. Arnold explained at the start of her video that she was separating the clothes to see if she could use any for her baby boy on the way.
“Raise your hand if you are going to be a first-time boy mom in less than seven weeks and you have absolutely nothing prepared as far as boy clothing goes,” Arnold said.
“Yup, that’s me,” Arnold continued. “We’ve got an entire closet full of all of my girls’ old clothing that we need to go through today.”

She added that she will “most likely cry” while assessing the inventory.
“See if we have anything in there that could work for baby boy, and then get prepared for the stuff that we do need. So, let’s go,” Arnold said in the video at the time.
While going through the items, the soon-to-be mom of three revealed that her baby boy will “most likely” be their last baby.
“So, this is most likely our last baby, which means anything that I don’t feel like I want to hold onto, we will be donating,” she said.
