John Reed took to his own Instagram to reflect on Bella’s special day. You can detect the emotion in his words as he recalled how young Bella was when he first came into the Robertson family’s lives.
“It’s like yesterday I was holding this one and she was hanging off me like a little monkey,” John Reed said. “Now you’re a woman and you found your man. The Loflin’s [sic] love both of you with all our hearts. Can’t wait to have fun at the next stage of life with y’all.“
