It’s a girl for Siesta Key stars Madisson Hausburg and Ish Soto!
The couple– who met while Madisson was appearing on the MTV reality show and Ish was a producer— welcomed a daughter on February 12. They announced their big news on Instagram on Saturday.
“Sunday Christina Soto 2/12/24,” they captioned a photo of the newborn.

The proud parents also posted several photos of themselves with the baby, as well as one pic posted by Madisson to Instagram Stories that marveled at how much hair the baby has.
“Where did all of this hair come from?!?” she joked in the photo caption.
This is the second child for the couple, who unfortunately lost their first baby to a stillbirth when Madisson was 37 weeks pregnant in 2021. The couple named that baby boy Elliott Angel.
As fans of ‘Siesta Key’ will remember, Madisson and Ish were married in October 2021 while Madisson was pregnant with Elliott. Just two months later, Madisson revealed she suffered the stillbirth.
In July 2023, Ish and Madisson excitedly announced that they were expecting again.
“One in our hearts, one in my belly,” Madisson shared on Instagram, along with a photo of her, Ish, their cat and Baby Elliott’s urn. “Baby number 2 due in 2024.”

Months after losing her son, Madisson revealed to fans that she and Ish were having difficulties conceiving again.
“Here’s to a glimmer of hope,” she shared on Instagram in April 2023, along with a video of her preparing for her first intrauterine insemination (IUI) treatment.
“OOTD for my first appointment to begin IUI treatment after a full-term stillbirth followed by 16 months of secondary unexplained infertility,” she wrote. “C’mon baby number 2.”
On Saturday, Madisson’s ‘Siesta Key’ cast members celebrated the birth of baby Sunday by posting congratulatory comments on the couple’s birth announcement post.
“AHHH my heart is about to explode!” wrote Kelsey Owens. “So excited to meet the precious girl. Love you guys so so much!”
“I’m so so so happy! She’s so beautiful! Congrats my love,” Juliette Porter commented.
“I’m so in love with this little girl,” wrote Chloe Long.
“Sweet baby girl,” Amanda Miller— who is also pregnant—commented. “Can’t wait to give you a best friend. She’s so perfect I can’t handle it. Congratulations mom, dad & big brother Elliot!”

Awww so happy for them. Madisson is such a nice girl and it was terrible what happened with baby Elliott.
Welcome to the world little Sunday! And what a little cutie. That IS a ton of hair lol. Best wishes to the new little family. So happy they have their rainbow baby girl.
She genuinely seems like such a sweetheart. I know how badly she longed to be a mother and how heartbroken she was losing baby Elliot. I’m thrilled that she gave birth to a beautiful little girl & her big brother will no doubt watch after his baby sister.
I’ve never seen the show, but I am so very happy for them. I know 2 families who have suffered stillbirth in the past 3 years, and it is unimaginable the amount of grief they go through. I don’t think I could handle it, myself. This is such great news to see them all happy and healthy. ❤️
