A South Carolina couple have welcomed the husbandâs familyâs first baby girl in 137 years. The record-breaking birth was marked with a 12-ft tall, 24-ft wide billboard along a South Carolina highway.
Will and Kelen Settle welcomed Carter Louise Settle on June 25, shattering the Settle familyâs 137-year male-only tradition.
The birth announcement was the handiwork of Kelenâs colleagues who erected the uber-pink announcement on a highway between Bluffton and Savannah.
âWhen I first saw it, it was an âOh my Godâ moment,â Will told ABC News. âIt is so pink [and] so large. Itâs pretty obnoxious, I hate to say. It is so in your face, you wouldnât believe it.â
âI just assumed I was going to have another boy,â said Kelen who has a son from a previous marriage, saying ,the entire family were âshockedâ to learn that they would finally have a baby girl in the family.
