This comes after the golden Bachelor couple’s constant struggle with Harper’s health issues, after the baby was born a month early.

Snezana wrote a sweet tribute to her husband on Instagram, saying: “Our little Harper had an infection and mama here sepsis, but you never told me or showed me how serious it was or how worried you were.

“You stayed calm which kept me calm. I asked you to stay with Harper till she was ok, and you did, then you came across to the hospital I was taken to, to make sure I was okay.”

Sam documented the moment that his wife and baby Harper were reunited after recovering, sharing the ‘beautiful’ video on Instagram.

“You really are the strongest and most beautiful person I know, and like you, thank god the force is strong in little Harper,” he wrote.
