The couple were married in 2013 and planned to wait to have children until Kelsey Porter was diagnosed with Huntington's disease. They welcomed son, McCoy Lee Porter in May of 2015 after undergoing IVF treatments to ensure that their viable embryos were not carriers of the disease.

skittishkid: "More than just about #BabyBoyMcCoy, the @peoplemag article signifies my brave wife @KiwiPorter, and our family, joining the battle against #HuntingtonsDisease and the mission to raise awareness about it. We experienced a lot over the last 18 months and took great measures to make sure we didn't pass along the gene. The hope is one day to have a way to fight and prevent this disease for all. It's time to fight. Thank you all for reading... Oh, and #truffle says thank you as well."
