Life has been throwing unexpected curveballs at Tara Davis-Woodhall and her husband, Hunter Woodhall. What was supposed to be a trip to support his father through open-heart surgery turned into a medical whirlwind for Hunter himself. One moment, he was in Utah for family support, and the next, he was clutching his stomach in excruciating pain. What started as a “horrible stomach pain” quickly escalated into a hospital visit, where doctors dropped the news—an emergency appendectomy was the only option. While the situation was anything but ideal, Hunter took it in stride. With his signature resilience, he brushed it off, calling it a “lil emergency surgery” and joking, “Didn’t need an appendix anyway.” Classic Hunter! But the ‘Classic Hunter’ has a few more news to unveil!
Hunter Woodhall knows how to keep his fans on their toes, and his latest Instagram story was no exception. On March 14, he dropped a video clip that, at first glance, seemed like a cozy, everyday moment—Tara Davis-Woodhall snuggled up with their beloved pet, Winnie while sitting on a chair. But then came the caption. And oh, did it spark some double takes. “She’s pregnant 🤪.” Wait, what?! Shocking, right?
Fans barely had time to process the bombshell before their minds started racing. Was Tara expecting? Was this their big announcement? But before the internet could explode with speculation, the rest of the caption delivered the ultimate plot twist: “Such a surprise but a welcomed one. 🐶 Woodhall puppies otw.” Cue a collective sigh of realization. Nope, it wasn’t Tara—it was Winnie!

Meanwhile, Hunter teased the scene by posting another story.

The Paralympic gold medalist shared another canine’s snap in the next story. But this time the character had a twist. How so? In the caption, Hunter wrote, “RayJ Not planned in anyway but they will be cuties.” Is the adorable pet concerned about it? Hunter thought so. So, any help? The 26-year-old ended the curiosity with a simple line, “The father for everyone asking [smiling face emojis].” And what about Tara? She is also on her way to becoming a grandparent, right? Isn’t she excited about it?
Surely, the Olympian is! She, in the meantime, reshared Hunter’s Instagram story on her story, announcing Winnie’s pregnancy. Additionally, she made an effort to share a surprise. What’s that? She shared Winnie’s USG visual, which showed that her paw love is pregnant with twins. Well, Tara Davis-Woodhall called it “insane” in her Instagram story. Surprise, surprise! Someone who had the responsibility to carry the couple’s wedding rings is now pregnant with twins. The couple now has a truckload of reasons to feel elated. But did Tara guess such happenings in her new calendar year beforehand? What did she picture for her new year? Do you remember it? Well, let us recall it once again.

Tara Davis-Woodhall watches several things happening in one frame
“There’s nothing really hanging over my head anymore of like, ‘I need to be this, I need to have this.’ 2025 should just be a year of growing and rebuilding what we did this year.” What did Tara Davis-Woodhall think when saying those lines to People last year in November? Chances of reshaping her and Hunter’s lives, right? But is she having that right now? Last year, in November, she found it ‘crazy’ to see herself with a gold medal around her neck. But she was “embracing the feeling of being the newly reigning Olympic champion.” But now, she is miles away from that.

In the last few weeks, Tara and Hunter Woodhall surely have attended the Tara Davis Invitational and extended hands in philanthropic works. But they have also witnessed two major surgeries, Hunter’s and his father’s. And now, it is about welcoming new members to their families. As the grandparents, they will now have to take care of things such as proper care for Winnie. Perhaps it’s an opportunity knocking on their door, a long-awaited milestone, or something even more personal and heartwarming. Whatever it is, one thing is certain—after the storm, the sun always finds its way back. And for Tara and Hunter, that sunshine is about to shine bright again!
