Brian Jagde, who fled Forza del destino when his wife went into labour, is back with happy news:
Welcome to the world Baby Jagde, you are loved beyond measure! Thank you all for your messages and well wishes over the last few days. It’s been a whirlwind, and he will be leaving the hospital today per their standard protocol. We are not only grateful to finally have him with us, but also for the loving and supportive community who helped us bring this big (and little! ) dream to life.
Unfortunately I will not be back in Milano yet for tonight’s performance of Forza at Teatro alla Scala, but I will return for our show on the 19th & can’t wait to reunite with my colleagues then. In bocca al lupo tutti!
