JoJo Fletcher has shared just how excited she and husband Jordan Rodgers are to welcome their first child while showing off her blossoming baby bump.
Posting via her Instagram Story on Thursday, August 28, the Bachelorette alum reshared a reel that featured her pregnancy body.
“Our hearts are so full,” Fletcher, 34, captioned the post. “Thank you to everyone for all the kind words, wishes and prayers you’ve sent along the way. We are so excited.”
The video was uploaded earlier on Thursday to announce the news that Fletcher and Rodgers were expecting their first child together after a tough fertility journey.
“We love you so much already, our sweet rainbow baby. 🌈🕊️Baby Rodgers coming January 2026 🤍” the joint Instagram post’s caption read.
Taking to the comments section, Rodgers, 36, praised his wife, who he married at the Sunstone Winery in Santa Ynez, California, in May 2022.
“Love you so much @joelle_fletcher ❤️ you have been such a rockstar through the ups and downs of this journey,” he wrote. “Your strength, resilience and positive attitude are an inspiration. Can’t wait to see you as a Mom 🥹 falling more in love with you every single day!”
The couple’s followers also shared their well wishes for Fletcher and Rodgers in the comments, including The Bachelor’s Ben Higgins. (Fletcher was runner-up on Higgins’ season 20 of The Bachelor in 2016 prior to being chosen as The Bachelorette lead.)
“Wow, just so special and so happy for you two and this baby. They will be born into a great family! Congratulations,” Higgins, 36, wrote.
Last month, Fletcher opened up to Us Weekly about the “fertility journey” she was on with Rodgers.
“It’s been a journey,” she exclusively told Us. “I do keep positive about the situation, and I know that when it’s meant to be, it will be. When the time comes and we have a little Baby Rodgers, it’ll be a very, very exciting moment.”
The parents-to-be first met on The Bachelorette’s season 12 in 2016 and initially planned to get married in May 2020. When the COVID pandemic thwarted their wedding plans, they pushed back the date of their nuptials to spring 2022.
“It’s been such a long time coming that, like, getting through the ceremony and walking into the reception to party and have fun with our friends, we’re so excited,” Fletcher told Us in April 2022. “We can let our hair down and just be like, ‘We did it! You guys, like, we made it here. We’re doing it.’”
