Dylan Dreyer could not be happier with her adorable family! The Today host is a mom to three sons with her husband, Brian Fichera: Calvin, Oliver and Russell. Their youngest child, Russell, arrived in September 2021, and was the perfect addition to their family.

Who Is Dylan Dreyer’s Eldest Son Calvin Bradley Fichera?

Dylan became a mom when she gave birth to her eldest son, Calvin, on December 17, 2016. According to a snapshot shared by dad Brian, Calvin was born at 11:52 a.m. and weighed 8 pounds, 3 ounces. He also measured 20.5 inches.

Following Cavin’s arrival, Dylan opened up about her experience of giving birth for the first time, revealing “childbirth is a lot harder” than she ever imagined. “I pushed for about three hours, and he was a big guy and he didn’t quite fit, so he got stuck,” she joked with Today. “We ended up doing a c-section anyway.”

These days, Calvin is a happy little boy. Not only does he join his mom for his very own Today segment called “Cooking With Cal,” but it’s not uncommon to catch a glimpse of the blond-haired cutie on Instagram. In April 2021, Dylan praised her son for his improved skills in the kitchen. “I’m a proud mom!!! Calvin learned to crack an egg without squishing it!!” she gushed.

In May 2023, Dylan revealed that Calvin was diagnosed with celiac disease. The diagnosis came after he experienced frequent stomach pain and hair loss. After changing up his diet and making changes around their home, the mom of three revealed that her eldest child was feeling much better.

“Not only is it not feeding him any wheat products but it’s also the cross-contamination risk,” she told Today.com at the time. “All of my stuff in the kitchen had to be thrown out, all of our wooden spoons, wooden cutting boards, anything that had a scratch in it … any rivets on the inside of the pot where the handle is. All of that had to be thrown out because gluten can hide everywhere.”

“I’m happy to report that since we took gluten out of Calvin’s diet, his hair’s not falling out anymore. He has no rashes. His ear doesn’t hurt. He has no headache, and his stomach doesn’t hurt,” she continued.

Who Is Dylan Dreyer’s Son Oliver George Fichera?

The duo’s second child made his arrival on January 2, 2020. Dylan and Brian told Today their newborn baby, who also goes by Ollie, arrived at 9:13 a.m., weighing 7 pounds, 2 ounces and measuring 19 inches. The star’s spouse marveled over Ollie’s birth on Instagram, writing, “Friends, meet my son Oliver George. I am overwhelmed.”

Like Calvin, it’s extremely common for Dylan to post snapshots of her adorable son on social media. In April 2021, she shared a hilarious collage of photos of her tot munching on some dinner.

“I love how a kid will look at spinach with absolute disgust … even when it’s hidden in like a delicious cheesy quesadilla, spotting it from a mile away,” she wrote in the caption. “But a pear stem and seeds? Ollie’s like SIGN ME UP!!”

Who Is Dylan Dreyer’s Youngest Kid Russell James Fichera?

Dylan’s third kiddo made his arrival on September 29, 2021. The meteorologist gave birth to Russell a little early, as her due date wasn’t until November. Fortunately, all went well for the mom of three and her newborn. Prior to Russell’s arrival, Dylan revealed she was admitted to the hospital after he “water broke” weeks ahead of time.

“Our little guy is anxious to get out and meet us! Doctors are closely monitoring both of us and trying to keep him on the inside for a little while longer to get stronger,” she wrote on Instagram on September 28. “All is well! I’m in great hands and I have the best person to keep me calm and comfortable. Looks like we’ll be getting to meet our littlest boy sometime this week … six weeks early! Guess he couldn’t handle being left out of all the fun his brothers have been having!”

Now, he’s growing up right before her eyes. Dylan decided to leave Weekend Today in January 2022 to spend more time with her family of five. She is still part of the weekday broadcasting team.

“It’s all about family time,” she said during her final weekend appearance. “You know, this job can get crazy especially when we’re traveling and we’re busy, but it’s so important to make time for family too.”
