Do you believe in reincarnation? Elise Estrada and Adam Hurstfield sure do, after what happened to the couple over the summer.

Estrada, a Surrey-raised singer/actor, and music producer Hurtsfield have been trying to have a baby for close to five years. Estrada was told by a doctor that she needed to have a large fibroid removed before she could conceive, but her pregnancy test proved positive in July 㽶Ƶֱ a day after Hurstfield㽶Ƶֱs brother died in a Cancun hospital after a battle with cancer and COVID-19.

The timing is not lost on the music-making couple, who live in Vancouver.

㽶ƵֱIsn㽶Ƶֱt it odd that we couldn㽶Ƶֱt get pregnant for years, then immediately after Bert passed away, the egg fertilized?㽶Ƶֱ Hurstfield posted to Facebook this month. 㽶ƵֱNow this is some Jerry Springer sh*t because I am about to become my older brother㽶Ƶֱs Daddy! I have no doubt in my mind that this baby is Bert. I㽶Ƶֱm sure God spoke with Bert (and) when he found out that he could come back again as a Hurstfield, he stopped fighting.㽶Ƶֱ

The story is told in an emotional 10-minute video posted to , the couple㽶Ƶֱs YouTube channel. The clip also features Hurstfield㽶Ƶֱs son from an earlier relationship, Chance, a 13-year-old actor currently seen in the ABC drama .

㽶ƵֱWe㽶Ƶֱre so excited,㽶Ƶֱ Estrada said. 㽶ƵֱIt was an emotional time and I wanted to capture and film it all.

㽶ƵֱI was the one who said to Adam, 㽶ƵֱI really think this is your brother reincarnated.㽶Ƶֱ I really do. We feel it㽶Ƶֱs a miracle.㽶Ƶֱ

The first three months of high-risk pregnancy were scary for the pair, because the baby㽶Ƶֱs heartbeat was faint and Estrada was bedridden.

Now, the baby㽶Ƶֱs heart is beating strongly and is progressing beautifully, the couple report, and they㽶Ƶֱre ready to spread the news.

The baby is due on April 1.

㽶ƵֱI㽶Ƶֱm willing to bet that the baby will be born on March 28, which is my birthday and also the birthday of my brother㽶Ƶֱs son, which is another thing here,㽶Ƶֱ Hurstfield said.

㽶ƵֱI was on the fence about this kind of stuff, until now.㽶Ƶֱ

Estrada, who graduated from Holy Cross Regional High School in Surrey, hit the pop charts with songs including 㽶ƵֱInsatiable,㽶Ƶֱ 㽶ƵֱUnlove You㽶Ƶֱ and 㽶ƵֱLipstick㽶Ƶֱ in the late-2000s. She performed at .

Now, with everything else going on in life, she has some new music due out soon.

㽶ƵֱYou know what, I㽶Ƶֱve been focused on being a stage mom for Chance, really, so I㽶Ƶֱve had songs ready to go for awhile, and with COVID, there㽶Ƶֱs no touring, so we㽶Ƶֱre going to release the music soon,㽶Ƶֱ Estrada explained.

㽶ƵֱElise is very much a team player,㽶Ƶֱ Hurstfield added, 㽶Ƶֱand she always felt that this is Chance㽶Ƶֱs time right now, to help him, to take him to set, coach him, all of that. So I㽶Ƶֱve been traveling the world producing pop stars in a bunch of countries, and so it would have been impossible for Elise and I both to be on the road at the same time, and Chance to be filming. So Elise kind of took the bullet and decided it was more important to let Chance have his moment.㽶Ƶֱ Now is a perfect time to virtually promote the record instead of hitting the road. She㽶Ƶֱs been working on new music the whole time.㽶Ƶֱ
