'I found out while I was in the hospital that my oldest girl, Courtney, was expecting our first grandchild,' he added. Roberts chimed in, 'But I think more than anything else, knowing that she was coming this last year ... because it's been a progression, but you've just gotten stronger and stronger, so here he is.'
