Kelly Kay, girlfriend of the late Oregon tight end Spencer Webb, announced Monday she was pregnant with the couple’s first child. The announcement comes a month after Webb died in a cliff-diving accident at Triangle Lake in Eugene.
“We created an angel before heaven gained one,” Kay wrote in an Instagram post. “All you ever wanted was to be a father. … I know you’ll be the best one from up above. Can’t believe I have to do it without you but knowing I’ll have a piece of you keeps me going. I can’t wait to meet the person that’s half you, half me. I love you forever, both of you.”
The Lane County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement that Webb fell and struck his head approximately 100 yards down a steep trail, and bystanders and paramedics were unable to revive him. There was no evidence of foul play, and the death appeared to be accidental.
