Big Brother star Krystal Forscutt reveals she changed her mind about calling her baby son Huska – but refuses to share his new name


Former Big Brother Australia star Krystal Forscutt has changed her mind about calling her eight-month-old son Huska.

She had decided on the unique name after asking her Instagram followers to vote on whether they preferred Husky or Huska, but now says she doesn’t like either of them.

The mother-of-three, 34, revealed during an Instagram Q&A on Tuesday she’d changed her little boy’s name, but was still calling him Husky as a nickname.

For the time being, she has opted not to share her son’s new name publicly. 

‘It’s actually neither of these names on his birth certificate but we call him Husky,’ she said in response to a fan asking about her son’s name.

Krystal added that while she won’t be sharing her baby’s legal name with fans on social media, she is calling him Husky in the meantime. 

‘We might share at some point but have decided not to for now,’ she said.

Decision: In an Instagram Q&A, one fan asked Krystal: 'Have you decided baby's final name yet. As in is his name Huska or Husky?'

Krystal and her husband, property developer Neil Hipwell, welcomed their third child in September last year.

After giving birth, the former Big Brother housemate asked her Instagram followers whether they preferred the name Husky or Huska.

She said at the time she was unable to decide between the two similar names, so she had been calling her son both interchangeably.

‘Now I have no excuses and have to name my child,’ Krystal laughed as she prepared to lodge the paperwork.

‘I would love to know what your thoughts are. As you know, we have been tossing up whether we go with Husky or Huska.

‘Still undecided, so I would love to know what you guys think.’

She then set up a poll for her 161,000 followers to vote on the name.

Krystal and her husband live in Cronulla and also share two older children, daughter Nakoda, two, and son Sunny, six.
