Deadliest Catch Star Mandy Hansen Has Baby

The F/V Northwestern captain Mandy Hansen, and her husband Clark Pederson just had a baby girl. According to People, who had the exclusive on the announcement, their baby daughter is called Sailor Marie Pederson.

The baby was born on Wednesday, November 10, at 8:24 p.m., and the baby weighed in at a perfect 8 lbs., no ounces. In addition,  she was measured at 21.5 inches long.

The new mother was joyful as she shared, “Bringing a child into this world is the most incredible feeling.” The Discovery star’s maternal instincts are already kicking in. “Every way you think changes the moment you hold your baby and you instantly know nothing is more important than protecting their life.”

She then shared a few more details about what seems to be a long week for the new mother. “It took a long week in the hospital but we can finally introduce Sailor Marie to our world.”

This news comes as quite a surprise, as the young captain did not share that she was expecting a baby.

The Meaning Behind Deadliest Catch Baby Sailor Marie Pederson’s Name

What is the meaning behind the Deadliest Catch’s star’s baby name? While Sailor is a very unique name, it is a very fitting name! This little baby’s grandfather is Captain Sig Hansen! This makes perfect sense.

Mandy explained, “We wanted something that reflects our family’s Scandinavian heritage as well as our lifestyle and profession. With my husband and I both working on the Bering Sea of Alaska as commercial crab fishermen, naming our daughter Sailor Marie is a perfect fit.”

Is This Deadliest Catch Star Sig Hansen’s First Grandchild?

Is Sailor Marie Pederson, Mandy Hansen, and Clark Pederson’s new baby Sig and June Hansen’s first grandchild? This is his first granddaughter, but not his first grandchild. Sig’s oldest daughter Nina, gave birth to Sig’s first grandchild, Jaxsen, back in June 2017. This was right around the time that Mandy and Clark got married.

Mandy And Clark’s Devastating Loss

Back In February 2019, the Deadliest Catch star shared some devastating news. Mandy shared on Instagram a photo of a white baby onesie, with the words “Xtratuf” across the front, some matching baby booties, with some little crabs on top of them.

Mandy also included a heartbreaking message.  “Though I lost you my previous season onboard, I still think about you everyday. Words cannot describe the hurt and the love I still feel for you. May we meet one day little one. Momma’s got you in her heart forever and ever 😘.”

The F/V Northwestern captain did share her philosophy over the loss. “Even when life doesn’t go as planned, you have to keep pushing and continuously work towards your goal, whatever that may be, because when it happens the reward is that much sweeter!”

Are you surprised that Mandy and Clark had a baby? Do you find the baby’s name meaningful?
