Ayesha, 35, appears to have prescheduled professional posts on her Instagram account, but posted a candid photo of herself with her daughter Ryan from a hike on May 8, just days before Caius’ arrival.

“Hikes with my Chookas 🥰. My nature girl. 🍃🌿,” she captioned a carousel of images from the mother-daughter nature outing.
