I\u2019ve written so many songs about him and so I really just wanted to dance to a song and have him there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">During practice, the couple surprised Scott&#8217;s dance partner Rylee Arnold with the news that they&#8217;re expecting a baby.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I&#8217;m so excited to raise a family with him,&#8221; Scott said. &#8220;I just feel like we&#8217;re really, really lucky.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In June, the couple spoke with PEOPLE at the Kids&#8217; Choice Awards, and shared that they had begun the process of having a baby together. &#8220;We&#8217;re getting closer,&#8221; Mark told PEOPLE at the time. &#8220;We finally have a surrogate, so we&#8217;re closer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;And we&#8217;re becoming friends,&#8221; Scott said of their surrogate. &#8220;But then there&#8217;s all sorts of stuff that has to happen before the surrogate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;But next summer, we&#8217;ll have a baby for sure,&#8221; Mark added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Scott went on to explain the process the couple had undergone to welcome a bundle of joy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;We used an agency. And we wanted to have our surrogate in L.A., because we want to go to every single appointment,&#8221; he said at the time. &#8220;And so the wait list was a lot longer for L.A. But it was worth it. We found something. She&#8217;s amazing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Robin L Marshall\/Getty Mark Manio (left) and Scott Hoying\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/5652b20a8f633f8befcee52882de88ad.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Robin L Marshall\/Getty<\/p>\n<p> Mark Manio (left) and Scott Hoying<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Never miss a story \u2014 sign up for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/people-news-daily-newsletter-sign-up-8692701\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:PEOPLE&#039;s free daily newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">PEOPLE&#8217;s free daily newsletter<\/a>\u00a0to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer\u200b\u200b, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Scott and Mark <a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/photos-from-pentatonix-scott-hoying-wedding-mark-manio-7558759\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:tied the knot in July 2023;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">tied the knot in July 2023<\/a> in Santa Barbara, Calif., with the musician telling PEOPLE at the time that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/pentatonix-scott-hoying-marries-mark-manio-exclusive-7557701\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:he knew his husband was the one;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">he knew his husband was the one<\/a>\u00a0quickly into their relationship.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I feel like all of our life experiences and choices, and ups and downs, have led us to each other and this is the moment where the people we love most get to see us truly make the leap,&#8221; Scott told PEOPLE. &#8220;I knew pretty early on that Mark was my dream man and I genuinely feel like the luckiest man on earth to get to marry him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Scott Hoying\/Instagram Scott Hoying (left) and Mark Manio\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"304\" height=\"480\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/8557c78a54d83b111be01fe3e51bd40f.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Scott Hoying\/Instagram<\/p>\n<p> Scott Hoying (left) and Mark Manio<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">At the time, the couple also shared that they were thinking of starting a family together.

I think we, like so many queer people growing up, wonder if they\u2019ll ever even come out, and if they&#8217;ll ever find love, and for some of us, if gay marriage would ever be legal. The fact that all of those obstacles ended up working out in the end is a really beautiful thing and only makes us cherish each other more,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He continued: &#8220;What I love about Mark is that he is the most loving, gentle, genuinely kind ray of sunshine that you\u2019ll ever meet\u2014always! It&#8217;s like a superpower. He just loves life, loves people, loves every single part of me. I just know he is going to be the most amazing father in the world to our children.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read the original article on <a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/pentatonix-star-scott-hoying-husband-mark-expecting-first-baby-11830007\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:People;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">People<\/a><\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NEED TO KNOW Scott Hoying is going to be a dad!
