Cori has previously opened up about the experience of having her daughter prematurely and her time in the NICU.
"She's so resilient and strong," Cori told Us Weekly in September 2025.
Cori also spoke about her time in the NICU and how difficult it was.
"The NICU is a different type of experience, just like you gotta know to know, and it's not an easy place to be but the support is amazing," she told the outlet.
"Sometimes I go in [the NICU] and I can't stop crying, and I apologise. They're like, 'What are you [apologising] for? This is normal. If you wasn't crying, we would be worried. We'd be concerned, so just try to just stay close and just keep hope alive."
