Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and wife Candice Crawford didn’t think their marriage could get any better until their baby boy, Hawkins, came into their lives. ”If it’s possible to bring you and your wife closer together, something like this really does,” Romo told People. “It strengthens your family values and your family and the love you have, which is already really strong. It’s been a great blessing from God to put us in this situation. We feel very honored.” The star NFL quarterback has a very busy schedule, but he makes as much time for his beauty queen wife and newborn son as possible, and Romo says he feels very fortunate to have a wife that understands the demands of his athletic career and supports him all the way.
