Claudia Oshry Welcomes First Child with Husband Ben Soffer
Congratulations are in order for comedian and social media personality Claudia Oshry, also known as "The Girl With No Job," as she and her husband, Ben Soffer, welcomed their first child, a baby boy. Oshry announced the joyful news on Saturday, sharing a heartfelt photo from the hospital that included both Soffer and their newborn.
In her Instagram post, she expressed her excitement simply by stating, “Things I did? That. 🩵.” This marks a new chapter for the couple, who have been married since 2017.
Oshry first announced her pregnancy in November 2024 using a playful twist on Taylor Swift lyrics, stating, “I’M HAVIN’ HIS BAAABY!” Her pregnancy journey gained attention when she shared a video capturing her and Soffer’s emotional reaction to finding out the news, culminating in an ultrasound appointment.
Earlier this year, the couple happily revealed their baby’s sex by using a fun pie experiment. Their lighthearted approach to announcing their child’s gender resonated with fans, showcasing the couple’s joy and creativity.
Throughout her pregnancy, Oshry stayed connected with her audience on social media by sharing everything from her cravings to the ups and downs she faced. In her candid posts, she humorously discussed how pregnancy had impacted her life, from daily struggles to lighthearted anecdotes. For example, she recently joked about her excitement at the prospect of using a medication known as Ozempic postpartum, referring to it as the “first thing” she’d have after giving birth.
While embracing her role as a new mom, Oshry has also been open about her body image and health discussions. Last year, she spoke about her experience using Ozempic, a medication typically prescribed for Type 2 diabetes, as a weight loss aid. In an emotional podcast episode, she reflected on her journey, expressing her regret over reaching a point where she felt the need to lose 70 pounds.
This kind of openness invites conversations about health and self-acceptance, and highlights the pressures many face regarding body image in our fast-paced, image-driven society. Oshry emphasized that while she had made the decision to use the medication, she also recognized the challenges associated with it.
Despite the pressures and challenges, Oshry has reiterated her commitment to leading a balanced life. She has recently stated that her journey of weaning off Ozempic was achievable, sharing her hope for a healthy future as a new mother.
As new parents, both Oshry and Soffer will navigate the adventure of raising their son, filled with its own blend of excitement, challenges, and opportunities for growth. Their willingness to share their experiences with the public has endeared them to many fans who appreciate their authenticity and humor.
This is certainly an exciting period for Claudia Oshry and Ben Soffer as they embrace parenthood, demonstrating that even within the glitz and glamour of social media, real-life experiences can be relatable and shared. Congratulations to the couple on their new arrival, as they begin this beautiful journey together as a family.
