Speaking on behalf of his son, Rancic said, “Also, Duke starts middle school in the fall. We’d lived on the West Coast, and we wanted to come back here to have him start middle school and then high school. It’s just the Midwest—it’s different from California.”

Giuliana and Rancic revealed their gestational carrier pregnancy for their first child on The Today Show on April 23, 2012. The couple gave birth to a son in Denver, Colorado, in August 2012.
