Erin Andrews could hardly contain her excitement after her one-year-old son, Mack, was gifted his first pair of ice skates. The popular sportscaster is married to former NHL star Jarret Stoll and the couple could now be about to see their son follow in his dad’s footsteps.
Andrews, who is yet to resolve her immediate future after seeing her contract with Fox Sports run out at the end of the 2024 NFL season, welcomed Mack via surrogate in July 2023 following a nine-year battle with in vitro fertilization (IVF), leading her and Stoll to take the surrogate route in order to have children.
The arrival of Mack came five years after Andrews and Stoll tied the knot, with the former ice hockey star popping the question in 2016 after four years of dating. A key figure within the sport, Stoll won the revered Stanley Cup twice in 2012 and 2014 with the Los Angeles Kings, and featured for the likes of the Edmonton Oilers, New York Rangers, and Minnesota Wild.

Now, it appears as though his son is all but set up to follow in his footsteps after Andrews took to Instagram on Monday to show off Mack’s brand new pair of ice skates. “Thank you @bauerhockey for the new wheels. @stolly28 couldn’t wait to lace up Mackey’s 1st skates!” she wrote.
In the brief clip, played to the backing of “Dream On” by Aerosmith, Stoll could be seen unlacing the smart-looking pair of black skates as he prepared to fit them on his son’s feet. Fitted with a clean blue trim and white laces, along with a “Bauer” logo on the side of the shoe as well as the tongue, they certainly looked the part and fans could only imagine what Mack would look like wearing them on the ice.
