But how did her ex, Au
“I hung out with his girlfriend (Audrey Pratt) and him afterwards and they were so happy for me,” Madison recalled. “He sent me this long text like, ‘Look at how far we’ve come. Five years ago we’re arguing and now everybody’s growing up and starting families and talking about getting married and already getting married.’
“He made me believe that he’s super happy for me, and I believe that, so I’ll take it,” she continued. “I told him he was going to be the guncle. I don’t think he understood what I was saying, but it’s okay. My jokes sometimes don’t land, but we’ll tell him later.”

“It’ll be funny to see them holding the baby — you know how nervous guys get, especially with a newborn,” she said with a laugh. “I had lunch with the guys and they’re like, ‘I don’t know what to do.’ They will be a little intimidated, but I can’t wait to see it.”
