Kurt Browning - soon to be daddy...

[fsfan]

I have *no* idea if this has been posted already.... but I read in an article today that Kurt & Sonia are expecting a baby boy in July....

Here's the link for anyone interested:

Nope, fsfan, I've never seen this one before. Thanks for sharing (even though, as someone who's wanted Kurt to write a sequel to his autobiography for years, the first couple of paragraphs are disappointing to read!) Nice photos, too!

It's also nice to know Kurt got another opportunity to meet the Queen last summer, too! :)

BTW, another Kurt article (with a few more quotes about his upcoming fatherhood) was published on the canada.com website yesterday. I already posted the link in the "New career for Kurt Browning" thread, but in case anybody missed it there, here it is again:

I'm sorry, this is real nit-picky, but I can't let it slide......;)

The Halifax article said Jennifer Robinson is 5 time Canadian Champ..


Jen is Six Time Canadian Champion !!


Ok, you all continue...............................

The news about Kurt Browning's upcoming fatherhood was posted a while ago...as was that of Scott Hamilton. The Browning baby is due in July and the Hamilton baby is due in September.

That's true Emileanne, but the news that the baby will be a little boy is pretty new. Haven't had a chance to read the article yet, but sounds like it's a good one.

Also, the news about Sonia's pregnancy originally came from Sonia's camp (through a National Ballet of Canada news release), not Kurt's, so these articles are actually the first time Kurt himself has publically commented about his upcoming fatherhood. :)

Reading the article a little closer, I also noticed another boo-boo about Kurt and Scott Hamilton "having spent most of their competitive careers together." Considering Scott turned pro about three years before Kurt even competed in his first World Championships...

The parts of the article directly concerning Kurt are still great, though! ;)

Kurt also talks a little bit about the baby (among other things) in the most recent SOI "Ask The Cast" update:

Those aren't the only boo boo's. Me being the lil monarchist that I am spotted the error that Kurt met HM The Queen during her summer tour of Canada.

For starters....HM visited Canada in October.

*And*

Kurt mentions she really enjoyed his performance of Raggy. The only place Kurt performed Raggy in front of HM was at the Nottingham Gala celebrating The Queen's Golden Jubilee last summer.

That's enough nitpicking. Now back to your regularly scheduled thread. :D
