A few months shy of their first wedding anniversary, Phil Younghusband and Margaret Hall are ready to welcome the newest addition to their family—Baby Younghusband! Last December, the couple excitedly announced the upcoming arrival of their very own bundle of joy. And as first time parents, they’re equally thrilled to know the gender of their child!

Mr. & Mrs. Younghusband gathered their closest friends and family for a gender reveal party held yesterday, January 29, at Samba terrace in Shangri-la at the Fort. The tropical-themed celebration—peppered with white, gold, and nature motifs—welcomed guests with drinks, acoustic music, and casual conversation, a relaxed and fun environment to kick off the much-awaited reveal.

Guests were invited to wear their guesses—blue for a boy and pink for a girl. There’s also a peg station for the undecided, with the choice of blue and pink clips for everyone to wear. Beside it, a white onesie is displayed for guests to stamp a blue or pink thumbprint on it to declare their guess!

Minutes before the actual reveal, baby games hyped up the crowd, which was followed by a heartfelt message from Phil and Margaret for the guests who joined them that night. And in true Younghusband fashion, the gender reveal came in a football set up—each held a blue and pink ball that they sent flying to the net. The hit sent a burst of blue confetti flying around the room—Baby Younghusband is a boy!

The predominantly blue-wearing audience cheered and congratulated the soon-to-be parents. Margaret shares how she and her husband thought their baby would actually be a boy. “When we looked at the sonogram, I said, ‘The baby looked like Phil,” the first-time mom exclaims. 

Congratulations to Phil and Margaret!
