So Cute! Fergie and Her Son Axl Snuggle Up to Snoopy at Knott’s Berry Farm
After setting the internet ablaze this month with her smokin’ hot “M.I.L.F.$” music video, Fergie spent her day off at the amusement park with her son Axl Jack.
The singer — who’s married to actor Josh Duhamel — was spotted riding the newly relaunched Ghostrider ride July 14 with her sister, Dana, and had a sweet moment with Axl, 2, later in the day while cuddling up to Snoopy.
“Axl loved playing with Snoopy,” says a source, who adds that the trio also stopped in to dine at Ghost Town Grill.

Yesterland: Henry’s Auto Livery Ride
You might think that car rides at theme parks and amusement parks always have a guide rail down the center of the track.
