When Ender questioned why he couldn't call his mom "Ash," Halsey admitted that they couldn't find a good answer for him.
"He's like, 'Why can't I call you Ash if everyone else does?' I'm like, 'That's a great question, but I just don't like it.'"
Halsey and Aydin welcomed their baby on July 14, 2021, which Halsey announced on Instagram. "Gratitude. For the most 'rare' and euphoric birth. Powered by love," they wrote on Instagram alongside black-and-white photos from baby Ender's birth.
