“The Bachelor” alum Ben Higgins and his wife Jessica Clarke are expecting their first child, a baby girl due in February. The couple announced the news on social media with an Instagram post and video showing their journey to parenthood, including ultrasound clips and family celebrations. This announcement comes after Higgins previously mentioned their plans to start a family together.
Higgins, who starred on “The Bachelor” season 20 in 2016, split from winner Lauren Bushnell the following year. He then appeared on “The Bachelor Winter Games” in 2018. Former “Bachelorette” star Kaitlyn Bristowe, who eliminated Higgins on her season, congratulated the couple on their pregnancy, along with other Bachelor Nation alumni.
The news of the couple’s pregnancy comes after the announcement that America’s first “Golden Bachelor” couple, Gerry Turner, and Theresa Nist, are getting a divorce after just three months of marriage. Despite this, the focus remains on the joyous news of Ben and Jessica’s upcoming arrival.
Fans of the reality TV star turned podcast host are excited to see him entering this new chapter of his life with Clarke. The couple’s Instagram post and video showing their journey to parenthood has garnered a lot of positive reactions from both fans and fellow Bachelor stars. Congratulations to Ben Higgins and Jessica Clarke on their exciting baby news!
