William Karlsson's wife, Emily, did a Q&A session on Wednesday with her followers on Instagram. She is pregnant with a boy and is due in December. She already has a boy named Beckham William Karlsson, who was born on May 12, 2023.

Emily was asked about any names she had thought of for the new baby. She replied:

"We finally have agreed on a name and I'm obsessed with his name"

Emily also talked about baby names which she liked but wouldn't be using.

"I really wanted to name this baby Ledger! But Will did not like it at all! I thought if we couldn't agree on another name then I'd win the battle and get to name him Ledger. But we came to an agreement on another name so I'm glad we both found a name we love," Emily said.

Upon being asked about her first son, Beckham, Emily said,

"He's perfect healthy, happy and busy! my angel boy I'm so gosh dang obsessed with him lolzzz"

Talking about how much time she has left until the birth of her second child, Emily said:

"23 weeks! At my anatomy scan yesterday he was measuring 2 weeks ahead though so maybe he would come sooner than we think!!?!"

Emily and William Karlsson got married on July 23, 2022, at Resorts World Las Vegas. They've been together since 2017. Their wedding was attended by close friends, family, and several of William's Golden Knights' peers. Following William's eight-year contract with the Golden Knights, the couple moved in together in Las Vegas in 2019.

In an interview with Bachelor Nation, Emily shared that she met William through social media. She called it a "weird, bizarre story." They became inseparable after connecting through a direct message. Emily noted that William's Swedish background made her believe men from other countries were nicer.

In 2023, William won his first Stanley Cup with the Golden Knights. Their son, Beckham, got to sit inside the Stanley Cup.
