Ben Higgins
Documenting his life on social media and his podcast Almost Famous, fans of the former Bachelor were happy to hear that he was going to become a dad. Sharing a reel alongside his wife, Jess Clarke, Ben Higgins showcased a brief history of their romance, which will now be completed by their first baby. In the caption of the post, Higgins divulged his excitement, “The next chapter of our love story! Baby girl coming in February ❤️.”
Right on schedule, Higgins and Clarke’s daughter was born on February 12. Overwhelmed with love, the 35-year-old exclaimed, “First, I did not realize I could be more in love and more impressed with @jessclarke_ but after the last 48 hours my heart has exploded for her and our new baby girl.”

Jordan Kimball
“I thought making babies was fun, but it turns out that helping and watching the baby grow is the most fun,” Bachelor Nation alum Jordan Kimball shared with Us Weekly. The Bachelorette Season 14 contestant and his wife, Christina Kimball, are expecting another baby.
Their first kid, Thomas, was born on July 5, 2023. Two years later, they announced that a second addition to the family would arrive in 2025. Thrilled about the news, Kimball stated, “Christina is the best mom — Thomas and I love her unconditionally.”
Lacey Mark
Okay, The Bachelor Season 21 alum Lacey Mark might’ve already called herself a “mom” when she brought her dog, Jerry, home in 2022, but it wasn’t until 2025 that she was also crowned that title for a human child. Giving birth to son Sawyer James Palumbo on February 3, the shortest month of the year became a whole lot sweeter! Her husband, Derek Palumbo, was right by her side.
Madison Prewett
Madison Prewett has been up to a lot since her time on The Bachelor has ended. Becoming a wife and a podcaster was just the beginning. Now, she can add another title: “mom.”
Announcing the birth of her daughter, Hosanna Rose Troutt, alongside her husband Grant Troutt, the social media star was glowing. Their daughter was born on January 20.

From comparing her baby’s size in her body to fruits to documenting the nesting phase of pregnancy, The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise fave Kendall Long has gone into full influencer mode to make sure to capture every moment before her kid arrives.
She and her fiancé, Mitch Sagely, opened up about their happy news on October 1, 2024, which was at the start of her second trimester. In that post, Long also revealed that their baby is due in February.
