‘Bachelorette’s JoJo Fletcher Pregnant, Expecting Baby With Jordan Rodgers
JoJo Fletcher loves her new role a bunch.
Days after the Bachelorette alum welcomed her baby with husband Jordan Rodgers following an emergency C-section, the 35-year-old shared a glimpse into her first few days as a mom. In fact, JoJo noted she’s “so obsessed” with their baby girl Romy Blair Rodgers.
“Mom and Dad and baby girl all doing good!” she captioned a Dec. 28 Instagram Story post featuring a photo of her cradling her baby. “In the newborn trenches, so I haven’t had much time at all but wanted to say thank you so much for all the love and wishes. I’m recovering well.”
As for Jordan, JoJo shared that the 37-year-old was already “literally DAD goals.”
“It’s crazy how fast he took to it and has been a total rockstar caring for me and Romy,” she continued. “It’s crazy what they say that you can literally be in full sleep deprivation mode but the second you look at her, you forget it all bc the only thing you can think about is just how much you love this little angel.”
JoJo’s update comes after she shared the news of the couple’s new arrival on Christmas Day.
“Merry Christmas to us,” JoJo, who experienced a previous pregnancy loss, captioned her Dec. 25 Instagram post. “What a whirlwind these last couple of days have been but in the most magical way.”
She added, “Went in for our weekly sonogram this past Tuesday and found out we needed to deliver via emergency c section that day. At 5:37pm on Dec 23 – we met our girl.”
And the Bachelor Nation star, who is also a dog mom of two, couldn’t contain her joy over their expanding family.
“Romy Blair Rodgers you are our whole world,” she wrote. “Cant wait to share more but in the meantime soaking up these moments as a new family of 3 + 2 ;).”

Though she admitted on pal Scheana Shay‘s podcast it was “scary” to learn she was pregnant “so soon in a relationship” and while still wed to Bachelor in Paradise love match Chris Randone, she “just knew this was an incredible lesson for me to grow, to lean into love, to have faith in myself and Miles and my future and know that God gives us only what we can handle.”
