YesJulz, whose real name is Julieanna Goddard, is a social media influencer, entrepreneur, and manager based in Miami, Florida.

She gained fame primarily through her presence on platforms like Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter, where she shares her lifestyle, fashion, and party experiences.

Everyone thought the duo would be a power couple with the birth of their little daughter, but things didn’t work out between them.

Gastroschisis is a birth defect where an infant’s intestines protrude outside of the body through a hole in the abdominal wall, usually near the belly button.

Riley mentioned that typically, when people are diagnosed with gastroschisis, they are aware of it before the birth, and some doctors offer the option to terminate the pregnancy.

However, Riley and their partner chose not to do so.

River spent her first month in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and then she was discharged from the hospital.

The new parents had trouble getting her into a sleep routine previously.

Despite the difficulties, Riley found inspiration in River’s resilience during her first two months of life.

He expressed deep affection for his family, acknowledging his two boys and newborn daughter.

Duke Riley felt blessed to have a daughter for the first time, apart from being the two boys’ father from a previous relationship.
