While sharing the news with the media, Prescott expressed the profound impact his little one has had on his life since the day she was born. He spoke of a heightened sense of responsibility, explaining how his desires have shifted from personal ambitions to ensure the happiness and well-being of his child.
“Yeah I feel different, especially wake up in the morning, you see that baby and understand the responsibilities. Everything that I’ve always wanted for myself, but to want that for somebody else even more. It’s special. Everybody’s healthy and at home. We’re blessed.”
When a reporter asked if he has dived into diaper duty yet, Dak Prescott couldn’t help but smile as he shared his experiences. He joked about changing his daughter’s first diaper and then bravely taking on a few more. However, he did not shy away in admitting that he is open to “pass off” that task whenever possible.
Sarah Jane Ramos, through an Instagram post in November 2023, had shared the joyful news of her pregnancy, and Dak hadn’t hold back in the comments, expressing his thanks to her and to the heavens for the happiness she brought into his life. Ever since the pregnancy announcement came in November 2023, the couple was eagerly waiting their little one’s arrival.
