Paola Mayfield Skewers Body-Shamers With Bathtub Baby Bump Photo

90 Day Fiance star Paola Mayfield is pregnant with her first child. She and Russ are overjoyed.


Some of her more hateful followers have tried to body-shame her over her pregnancy, demanding that she cover up her baby bump.


Pao is hitting back with a photo of her wearing nothing at all — except rose petals.



Paola shared this stunning photo of her very naked, very pregnant body in a rose petal bath.


In the captions, she made it clear that this is how she has chosen to clap back at her body-shamers.


“People have asked me if I‘m ever going to wear more clothes,” Pao’s caption begins.


She continues: “my answer is… do rose petals count?”


Paola remains an absolute delight, just as she was when she wrecked the shamers who told her to stop exercising.



Paola has kept her fans updated on her pregnancy and her baby bump all along.


Her caption continues with a recommendation that others try a bath like hers.


“You too could benefit from this home spa,” Paola suggests.


She adds that her bath is “with rose petals, coconut milk, and sea salt bath.”


So, you might need a shower after such a bath if you really want to get clean.


Paola says that the bath is “perfect to keep my skin soft and my muscles relaxed.”



In case anyone had any doubts about who had taken the picture, she gives credit where credit is due.


“Thank you baby for my photo @russ_mayfield,” Paola writes.


In case it was not obvious, the photographer she tagged was none other than her husband, Russ Mayfield. His name’s right there.


Paola then tagged her post: “#momtobe #homespa #proudofmypregnantbody #90dayfiance #babybump”


She’s a fitness model and she’s proud of her body.


Paola is in no hurry to cover up her curves, even if one of them is just a baby bump.



Naturally, Paola’s body-shamers weren’t done trying to scold her into hiding her body.


“Eeeeww,” exclaimed a super mature critic. “Still seeking attention in most unflattering ways….”


“Save this type of photograph for your husband,” demanded another. “And only your husband. Nothing worse than a thirsty pregnant woman. I really want to like you.”


Really? In all of the things in the world, there’s nothing worse than a pregnant woman who’s unashamed of her body?


“Why the need to seek so much attention?” wrote another. “If you really were secure & didnt give a rats f–k you wouldn’t have to seek attention being half naked…just sayin.”


She’s a fitness model, she cares about keeping her fans updated, and she’s a reality star.



But Paola also has her genuine fans.


“I don’t think anything is wrong with you being naked and pregnant,” wrote one defender.


That person continued: “Those who are asking about you wearing clothes are probably jealous.”


“Who cares about clothes?” asked another. “Motherhood is beautiful and so are you!”


Another wasn’t technically a critic, but offered a very different sort of positive feedback: “Those tatas are getting huge!! I love it!!”


Charming.



“Wow !!! I guess Russ has really lightened up,” commented another.


“Before he would have made a big fuss about you being in such a photo,” that person noted. “Now he not only allows it but hes the one taking the photo !!!”


Yes, it looks like Russ has gotten past at least some of his weird hangups about Paola’s job.


“Omg! All these babies,” wrote a commenter. “Yours, Karine with a rainbow baby, elizabeth, aziza.”


Those are all 90 Day Fiance stars with 90 Day Fiance babies.


“Giant baby boom on TLC,” the commenter continued. “Can’t wait to see them all lined up.”

We can expect to learn plenty more as the months tick by, but we have a treat for Royal Fans below.

Do you see a baby bump on the ex-Suits actress?

Paola Mayfield Shows Off HUGE Baby Bump!

90 Day Fiance stars Russ and Paola Mayfield are expecting their first child. Fans are thrilled for them.


Pao isn’t hiding her growing baby bump — she’s been putting it on display.


Now, she’s sharing a major update, and Russ is giving her a little help. Take a look:



Back in August, Paola flaunted her baby bump in a barely-there bikini in an instagram video.


Pao isn’t just a reality star — she is a fitness model by trade.


It really shows.


But though her abs may be incredible, her baby bump continues to grow and take an effect on her body.


Take a look at this update that she shared on Monday, October 1.


For October, her baby bump is now pumpkin-sized.



“Our protector,” Paola captioned this photo. “We love you.”


Obviously, Paola still looks great.


We’ll get to see her profile in a moment, but can we talk about Russ’ presence in the photo.


He’s being careful to not overshadow Paola — which is good.


Fans are there to see her and her baby bump, specifically.


Considering that it wasn’t that long ago that fans perceived that Russ wanted Paola to cover up on Instagram, this looks like relationship progress.



“My little angel is growing healthy and stronger,” Paola captioned this pic. “I can’t wait to meet you.”


From this angle, you can really see that bump’s growth, folks!


Some fitness models make fans and followers concerned with how little their bodies seem to outwardly change during pregnancy.


Paola is still very clearly fit, but her baby bump isn’t hiding, either.


In this baby bump update (or “bumpdate,” as absolutely no one is calling it), Pao’s bump is visibly larger.


It also looks like her legs are a little wider — which is by no means an insult, and is very healthy for both her and the baby.



Paola and Russ have been married since 2013.


Previously, the two of them suffered a miscarriage. The tragedy was compounded when it led to some marital friction.


Pao felt that Russ was not there for her, emotionally, while Russ accused her of shutting him out.


That added to their preexisting issues — mostly conflict over Russ’ discomfort with Paola’s modeling work.


Said dispute has been an ongoing storyline on 90 Day Fiance.


Fortunately, they worked through the fallout from the miscarriage and seem to be in a much better place in every way.



Paola has received some shaming, unfortunately, since her pregnancy.


Some people — even those who might claim to be her “fans” — think that pregnant folks should cover up their baby bumps.


Others hope that she quits modeling altogether now that she’s becoming a mother.


Yes, there are still people in this world who have a real problem with working moms.


But these were the same people who were giving her a hard time for modeling before she was pregnant.



When you look at this photo, from just a matter of weeks ago, you can really see how much Paola’s body is changing.


This is such exciting news for her.


Some days, it seems that almost none of the couples on 90 Day Fiance get their happily ever after.


(Some are downright miserable — and others turn out to be criminals)


We wish all the best to Paola and Russ and their baby boy.

Jessica Simpson: Check Out My Baby Bump!!!

Jessica Simpson once sang that her boots were made for walking.


And that may still be true.


But fans at the moment are focused on something else as it relates to the singer: her stomach… and how it’s made for growing more and more each day.



Not because the singer is pigging out or anything, no.


But because she’s pregnant!!!!


Indeed, Simpson and husband Eric Johnson took social media followes by surprise on Tuesday when they announced that Simpson has a third bun in her beautiful oven.


Another baby is on the way!


Jessica shared this exciting news in fun fashion, too, posting to Instagram a pair of photos.


Both of them feature her two children; both of them feature a bunch of balloons; and both of them helped the artist reveal the gender of her upcoming child.


“This little baby girl will make us a family of five. We couldn’t be happier to announce this precious blessing of life,” wrote Simpson as confirmation of the life inside her womb.




balloons and kids


Following this reveal, the ex-wife of Nick Lachey and former MTV reality star provided supporters with their very first look at her baby bump.


Standing out in a beautiful sunlit garden, surrounded by vibrant green and flowers, Simpson has her hands on her midsection in a flowing, Bohemian dress in the following image.


“My Baby Love,” she wrote as a simple caption.


Within just 20 minutes of the snapshot going live, it has received over 46,000 Likes, with nearly every comment an expression of excitement and congratulations from Simpson’s fans.


Check it out here:



Not really a singer or an active celebrity in any sense these days, Simpson’s main focus for years has been on her kids.


“The fact that people think I’m doing a pretty good job [as a mother] is the best compliment,” she said while being honored at the 40th Annual Outstanding Mother Awards in May.


She has a six-year old and a five-year old at home already and is clearly a very hands-on parent.


“When I’m a mother, I want to actually be a mother,” she said at this same ceremony. “I don’t want a nanny doing everything for me.”



Simpson and Johnon, a former NFL tight end, welcomed a daughter named Maxwell in May of 2012.


Wasting little time in procreating, they then welcomed a son named Ace in June of 2013.


“The most rewarding part of being a mother is really just watching my kids grow,” she told Entertainment Tonight this spring, adding at the time:


“It’s like, how much knowledge they have about life is just so meaningful to me, and how much heart they put into everything they do. There’s just nothing like the innocence of a child.”


So very true.


We send our best wishes to Jessicsa Simpson on a happy and healthy pregnancy.

Chelsea Houska Shares HUGE Baby Bump Pic, Important Message

According to Chelsea Houska, she doesn’t merely star on Teen Mom 2…


… she also has two weeks to go until she gives birth to her third child!


The veteran MTV personality has made this pointedly clear in a new Instagram photo.



The Teen Mom 2 cast member took to Instagram Stories on Tuesday to show off her 38-week-old baby bump, giving fans what may be their final glimpse at her growing tummy before she goes into labor.


In a nearly full body-length selfie, the 26-year old is donning a grey T-shirt, grey sweatpants and her hair is styled in a messy bun.


She’s cradling the aforementioned bump with one hand, but it’s so large at this point that it’s sticking out from underneath her shirt a bit!


How precious!


See for yourself:



Houska previously revealed her pregnant figure via a stunning set of professionally-done maternity photos.


Those images and this one here come a few months after Chelsea and husband Cole confirmed that a daughter is on the way.


“…GUESS WHAT! A sweet baby girl will be joining the DeBoer clan in a few short months! We could not be more excited!” wrote Chelsea alongside a picture of her ultrasound in March.


The couple welcomed sona son named  Watson in January of 2017, while Houska also has an eight-year-old daughter named Aubree from a previous relationship with ex-boyfriend Adam Lind.


(NOTE: Houska WENT OFF on Lind at this week’s Teen Mom 2 reunion.)


Prior to seeing this 38-week baby bump photo, some folks out there were wondering whether Chelsea had already welcomed her baby girl.


The answer, of course, is no.



And Houska responded to a few social media users a few days ago by explaining that fans will remain in the dark about her status until her daughter is actually here.


“I can promise everyone that whenever I AM in labor…nobody will know..and there def won’t be posts and silly little articles about it,” Chelsea wrote on Twitter last week, adding:


“I will announce when I have her. But the last thing on my mind when I’m in labor is going to be getting on social media.”


This sounds like a jab at those D-Listers and other celebrities who have gone online from their hospital beds during this critical time in their lives.


But… wait.


Is Chelsea being hypocritical here?



“If you want privacy though – why be on the reality show about your life? I guess I don’t get it,” wrote a follower to Houska, who elaborated on her previous point as follows:


“I watch a lot of reality television and I would never expect ANYONE to give up rights to any and all privacy just because they are on a tv show!


“That’s just my opinion though…


“Plus…all I was saying was that I don’t plan on being on social media or announcing to everyone when im in labor. Will definitely announce once she’s here!”


Sounds reasonable to us.


Best of luck with that while labor and birth thing, Chelsea!

Paola Mayfield Flaunts Her Baby Bump in a Barely-There Bikini!

Last month, we learned something very exciting: Paola Mayfield and Russ are expecting their first child.


The 90 Day Fiance couple is overjoyed at the news, and Pao is taking to social media to show off her baby bump in a barely-there bikini.


In the video that we"ve included, see how her fit body has changed.


Paola mayfield baby bump bikini


Wearing a colorful and extremely minimal bikini, Paola Mayfield poses in front of the mirror while recording herself.


"Too many changes," Paola writes in her Instagram caption. "And I’m loving them all."


As you"ll see in the video below (and in the .gifs that we"ve whipped up), Pao"s body is indeed changing.


Though it"s been just under a month since she and Russ shared the good news, she"s already showing a baby bump.


But, as you might expect from an ab-tastic fitness model, her baby bump looks a little different than most.


Paola mayfield baby bump gif


The first baby bump pic that Paola and Russ shared was a little more traditional.


It was a still image. Paola was wearing a red dress that hugged her belly with its newfound curves.


In the photo, kneeling before her, was Russ, planting a gentle kiss on his wife"s bump.


It was very, very sweet.


But considering that Paola is a fitness model who is no stranger to showing off her incredible form on social media, this new video is a little more like what fans expect.


Paola mayfield look at my baby bump


A little over a week ago, Paola and Russ revealed that they"re expecting a boy.


Obviously, gender is a social construct that no ultrasound can magically predict, but we know what they mean.


This is huge news for the couple.


Even Paola"s friend Juan, who has had serious doubts about Russ and her relationship with him, is rejoicing at the pregnancy announcement.


It"s good to support your friends, even if you have doubts about their life choices.


Paola mayfield pregnant and loving it


Paola moved from Columbia to the U.S. because she and Russ had fallen in love.


Like all 90 Day Fiance couples, Russ and Pao had to deal with more problems than simply their relationship beginning long-distance.


When Paola moved to the U.S. to be with Russ, she lived with Russ … in Oklahoma. It was not ideal.


She had no friends there and no career opportunities. And it was Oklahoma.


However, things changed for the better after Russ, being a supportive husband (despite his old-timey reservations about her career), moved to Miami with her.


Boy on tap


You might be distracted by Paola"s baby bump or by the many visible parts of her body that are not her baby bump in this video.


But if you look at her face and the way that she"s touching herself (on her abdomen, you pervs), you can see that she is really over the moon about her pregnancy.


By the way, in case anyone thinks of body-shaming her for maintaining her fit body while pregnant, please remember that different women carry weight, including baby weight, to different degrees.


Also, body-shaming someone for being slender is not morally superior to body-shaming someone for being large.


Congratulations again to Paola and Russ!

Jenelle Evans: Hiding Baby Bump with Photoshop?!

Jenelle Evans … her whole entire life is just too much.


One day she’s being accused of abusing and neglecting her kids, the next she’s following strangers back to their houses and pulling guns on them



There’s always something going on with her, it’s never good, and it’s just. Too. Much.


Since Jenelle has three kids and has been pregnant at least two more times (her abortion with Courtland Rogers and her miscarriage before she got pregnant with Ensley), she’s pretty much constantly the subject of pregnancy rumors.


Except this time around, there’s a little more to the rumors than “hey, she sure is fertile!”


Last month, Jenelle posed for some photos with her husband, David Eason.



She was wearing a bikini, and her stomach wasn’t completely flat, which makes sense, because again, she’s had three kids.


So when they shared the photos on Instagram, their followers were quick to ask if she was pregnant again.


Then, over on Facebook, David actually confirmed the rumors, saying that she’s 13 weeks along, and they already know it’s another little girl.


Pretty wild, right?



Except David is fond of trolling Teen Mom fans, and also he originally commented that Jenelle was six months pregnant, not just 13 weeks.


We imagine that he realized someone would have noticed by now if she was six months pregnant, and being just 13 weeks along is a lot more believable.


But still, lots and lots of people believed him, and so now all those people are just going about their lives, thinking that Jenelle’s cooking up yet another kid.


So imagine their surprise when she shared this photo:



As you can see, it’s another ad for that detox tea she’s been promoting forever.


She looks great, doesn’t she? And her waist is so small!


Like, it looks like it’s just a little bigger than her arm there, which doesn’t seem very normal, but wow, that tea must be working!


Just kidding, the general consensus is that she Photoshopped the hell out of this picture.


“Omg that photoshopping is horrendous,” one of her followers wrote. “Even your leggings look screwed up like a skirt. Is there anything you can do right?”



“Your photoshopped photo doesn’t make you look very good,” another commented.


Someone suggested that she work on her photo editing skills because right now, her edits are “too obvious.”


And if you’re having trouble seeing exactly where the editing happened, one person pointed out “Where her tummy is you can see that wood line bending.”


But while many people were talking about whether or not she’d edited this photo, others were concerned about her unborn child.



“Can you take this if you’re pregnant?” one of those people asked. “Heard you were.”


Another said “Should you even be taking that aren’t you pregnant with another girl?”


So what’s actually happening here?


Is she really that thin these days?



Did she edit the photo to hide a baby bump?


Or did she edit the photo because in real life, her tummy is a little less flat than this?


We’re going to have to go with that last option.


Here’s a bikini photo that David posted last week — sorry in advance for the vulgarity and any potential scarring on your psyche this may cause:



If you look at her stomach there, it looks great, obviously, and it’s pretty clear it’s not edited.


You can see the loose skin she has from all those pregnancies and everything.


Again, she looks really good there, besides the super weird pose, and not the least bit pregnant, but there’s a clear difference between this picture and that ad.


Jenelle, girl, when are you going to learn that you’re perfect just the way you are?!



On the outside, at least.

Paola Mayfield Shares Sweet Baby Bump Pic, Emotional Message to Fans

Paola Mayfield has made it official:


Two body parts of hers are growing these days.


As previously announced, the 90 Day Fiance star is expecting her first child with husband Russ, as the reality stars themselves confirmed this blessed news just over a week ago on Instagram.



Naturally, as a result, Mayfield’s belly is getting bigger by the month.


But the TLC personality has also now made it clear via social media that something aside from her stomach has increased in size of late:


Her heart.


Indeed, Paola just shared a new, precious picture (above) of Russ kissing her baby bump, adding as a lengthy caption:


“We are so thankful and happy for each one of your beautiful messages! We weren’t expecting so much love and so much support. Thank you all so much.”


She then referenced some of the marital strife that she has been through over the past year or so.



“You guys know all that Russ and I went through the past months,” Mayfield said in her caption, continuing in further detail:


“I was angry and devastated after all you can never completely recover from something like that but today we have a reason to smile and to be happy, a reason to move forward and to be the best we can.


“I wish I could keep up and like all your comments from my last post. I love you all so very much!


“Thank you for living this amazing experience with us and for showing us so much love.”


Mayfield is mostly referencing a miscarriage she suffered last year in this passage.



As is the case with so many couples that go through this awful experience, Russ and Paola nearly hit a breaking point due to the tragedy.


Paola made it pretty clear on air and in a few statements that she though Russ wasn’t there for her in the way she needed following the devastating news.


Meanwhile, Russ thought his wife was trying to shut him out.


It’s never been clear just how close the stars were to splitting, but their relationship hadn’t seemed entirely stable even before the miscarriage.


The main storyline surrounding the Mayfields during their time on 90 Day Finance had been Paola’s penchant for posing nearly-naked and Russ’ unease over his wife showing the world such revealing assets.


This was a legitimate issue between the husband and wife.



It became so well known and questions about their relationship so pervasive that both sides of the romance semi-recently addressed their status online.


“He accepts me,” Paola told fans in early July of Russ. “Loves me and respects me the way I am and lets me work even when he is not 100% comfortable.”


Russ, for his part, also made it evident a short bit ago that he loves Paola and is committed to Paola and people need to stop claiming anything to the contrary.


“I accept and am proud of my wife for the beautiful woman she is,” Russ has said, adding:


“I am tired of the comments from the marriage ‘experts’ stating I deserve better, my wife doesn’t respect me, or she only loves me for my money and so on and so forth…


“I am proud of where I come from. And where I am going and that’s with the love of my life.”


And now also with a precious bundle of joy! 


CONGRATS ALL AROUND!

Mackenzie Standifer Shows Off BIG Baby Bump: When is She Due?!

Mackenzie Standifer sure has been busy lately, huh?


Between trying to spin getting fired from Teen Mom OG, taking care of Ryan Edwards, and being very pregnant, she’s definitely had her hands full.




It must be exhausting to have so much drama in your life, but somehow, she’s managed.


Let’s do a quick recap, just for fun, OK?


Last year, we learned that Ryan Edwards was addicted to heroin.


Well, first we learned that he was addicted to something, thanks to some heartbreaking scenes of Maci Bookout on Teen Mom OG.


Fans had suspected that something was up with Ryan for a long, long time because honestly, he’s been filmed looking super, super high for a while now.


And then when we saw him nodding off while driving himself and Mackenzie to their rushed parking lot wedding, it became painfully clear that something was very wrong.



During that terrifying scene, Mackenzie was heard asking Ryan if he’d taken Xanax, but a few months later, after he came back from rehab, he admitted that he’d been shooting up heroin.


Oh, and another thing happened when he came back from rehab: he tried hitting up girls on Tinder for hookups, because that’s something newlyweds do.


Things were weird for a while between him and Mackenzie, or at least they seemed that way on the show, but in January, she became pregnant.


Because hey, why not?


We didn’t hear about the pregnancy until March, when it was discussed on the show, and although it didn’t come up until the last couple of episodes of the season, it was super awkward.


Ryan didn’t seem interested in having another baby at all — at one point, he even told Mackenzie to call him when the kid turned three.



Coincidentally, he was arrested the same week the pregnancy news broke.


He’d violated the parole he’d received from a previous arrest after failing a drug test, and although he didn’t face any real consequences for anything, he and Mackenzie both sort of went into hiding after that.


Until now!


But unless you’re thinking that maybe they’re back in the spotlight for good reasons, don’t get your hopes up — they got back on Instagram and did an interview because they’ve been fired from Teen Mom OG.


According to reports, Maci threatened to quit unless MTV stopped filming them, and not because she was being petty, but because she believes Ryan is still using, and she doesn’t want their son to be able to see footage of that anymore.


It seems like there was a bit of time before MTV decided what to do, and during that time they hired Bristol Palin to replace Maci.



But eventually, they decided to stick with their OG golden girl, and last week, they informed Ryan and Mackenzie that they were out.


As Ryan explained it, “They didn’t want to see another recovering addict storyline. So they’re writing us out of the show right now and making it seem like we dipped out on our baby, on Bentley and on everyone.”


“And that’s just not the case.”


In addition to making statements about how wonderful everything is (and how wrong Maci is), they’ve also been very active on Instagram.


Ryan’s been rambling about how we’ll all learn the truth soon, and Mackenzie’s been sharing updates on her pregnancy.


And yesterday, she shared a rare full-body bump pic!



A lot of people don’t like Mackenzie because they think she’s manipulative and mean and all sorts of bad things, but she looks amazing here, right?


She’s also looking pretty big — she’s more than halfway through her pregnancy already!


Ryan has said that she’s due in October, and sources have claimed that her exact due date is October 16th, so we’ve got less than three months to go before a new Edwards baby is born.


They’re having a boy, and though they haven’t announced a name yet, a few reports have stated that they’ll name him Jagger.


We’re still nervous about all of this, because it’s hard to be excited for a pregnancy when the father is as big a mess as Ryan is, but let’s hope for the best, OK?

Mackenzie Standifer Posts Baby Bump Pic Following Mysterious Social Media Hiatus


Back in May, Mackenzie Standifer disappeared from social media.


Her reasons were obvious, of course.


Standifer"s husband, Ryan Edwards, has been involved in just about every sort of scandal imaginable in the past few months.


The downward spiral began when Edwards got arrested several months ago, and it"s continued in shocking fashion ever since.


At a certain point, Mackenzie probably got sick of dealing with a new controversy every time she logged in.


Fans are happy to see Standifer back on Instagram — but they still have a lot of questions about her absence.




1. Before the Fall


Mackenzie standifer with ryan edwards

There was a time when Mackenzie and Ryan actually appeared to have a happy marriage. That didn’t last long.



2. A Rocky Start


Mackenzie standifer ryan edwards

Things got off to a bad start when Ryan got so high on his wedding day that he passed out while driving to the church.



3. Turning It Around?


Ryan edwards mackenzie standifer son

Shortly thereafter, Ryan checked into rehab, and it briefly looked as though he was committed to making his marriage work.



4. Worse By the Day


Ryan edwards mackenzie standifer sons

Shortly thereafter, it was revealed that Ryan had been using a dating app to help him find suitable cheating partners.



5. Bad Timing

All of this came on the heels of news that Standifer is pregnant with Ryan’s baby. It will be the second child for both partners, but their first as a couple.



6. The Long Goodbye

Like we said, it’s not hard to see why Mackennzie needed a break from social media — but we’re having a hard time understanding why she returned.

Jinger Duggar Shows Off Baby Bump, Offers Final Pregnancy Update

Despite rumors that Jinger Duggar has secretly given birth, it appears that the beloved reality star is very much still pregnant.


The mom-to-be offered up some photographic of her current condition on Instagram last night:



“Almost there! Vuolo #38weeks4days,” she captioned the image.


Obviously, Jinger was able to say it all with just a few words in this case.


But she was feeling much more expressive in a recent interview with TLC.


“I get scared thinking about birth and labor,” she told her home network.


Yes, over the years, Jinger has earned her reputation as the most candid and forthcoming Duggar, and she’s cemented her claim to that title in the final weeks of her pregnancy.



When Us Weekly caught up with Jinger recently, the 24-year-old revealed that carrying a baby had taken a serious toll on her energy levels:


“I do think probably what surprised me most [about pregnancy] is just being so tired all the time,” she revealed.


“They’ve said, ‘Just take a nap, don’t feel bad when you need to lay down in the middle of the day.’”


She added:


“Especially when I was in all the morning sickness, I talked to them a lot about what they did, how they got through their morning sickness and I think that was some of the best advice — just resting, taking it easy.”


Jinger is regarded as a bit of a rebel in the Duggar clan, so it’s appropriate that her pregnancy hasn’t conformed to her family’s customs.



For starters, Jinger and her husband, Jeremy Vuolo, broke with convention by waiting almost a year after their wedding to get pregnant.


On top of that, Jinger will soon become the first of her sisters to give birth outside of the family’s home state of Arkansas.


She and Vuolo moved to Laredo, Texas shortly after getting hitched.


In recent weeks, it’s been rumored that Jinger and Jeremy will move to Los Angeles after the baby is born so that he can pursue a divinity school degree.


Needless to say, Jinger’s pumpkin will be living a much more worldly life than his or her cousins.

Deena Cortese Flaunts Baby Bump for the First Time!

There’s good news for Jersey Shore fans: Deena Cortese is pregnant with her first child!


Deena and her husband, Christopher, are expecting a baby boy within the next six months.


And now she’s giving fans and followers their first-ever real look at her baby bump. Take a look!



Back in 2016, Deena became engaged to Christopher Buckner. This was after her stint on the first run of Jersey Shore.


It was also a couple of years after she appeared on Couples Therapy.


The two of them tied the knot just before Halloween in 2017.


And now they’re expecting a baby together. They held off on sharing the good news until they were ready, but they just had to let fans know.


Take a look at Deena’s baby bump at 14 weeks!



Awww!


In the captions, Deena writes: “Excited to share our pregnancy journey with all of you!!”


“Our first bump pic,” she says beside the photo of her cradling her baby bump while wearing a stunning and form-fitting cobalt dress.


She follows that with two turquoise heart emojis. (They may have appeared blue on some screens)


“Don’t worry,” Deena assures her fans and followers. “I won’t post bump pics every single week! Lol”


Surely no one would mind. Once a week is not a lot of Instagram photos.


“But this,” Deena says. “Is the first!!”


It sure is.



In the background of the photo, the sign for 14 weeks has some blanks filled in.


At this stage of her pregnancy, the fetus has about the same volume as a decent-sized lemon.


Deena is feeling both tired and excited — both of which are very understandable.


She is craving, she reveals, three things in particular:


Candy, Fruit, and ice pops.




Deena Cortese Gender Reveal


Deena and Christopher found out that they were especting a boy at one of those goofy color-coded gender reveal parties.


On July 1, the couple announced their good news all at once.


“Chris and I Decided to wait until we were ready to spill the beans!” Deena’s post began.


“Now that we are safely into our second trimester,” Deena wrote. “Us and our little monkey are ready to tell the world Our little family is growing.”


Deena gushed: “We have a sweet little boy on the way!”



“We Are truly blessed,” Deena’s announcement post continued. “And our hearts are filled with so much joy and happiness.”


She even revealed the due date — she really dumped all of this info at once!


“December,” Deena teased. “Can’t come soon enough!”


That is so soon!


“Daddy and Mommy can’t wait to meet you Christopher John,” Deena added, revealing the name of their future baby.


Those are two of the most common names in the English-speaking world, so we hope that Christopher John really likes either nicknames or his initials.


Deena promises: “You are going to be the most spoiled little boy ever!!!!”


That is just so sweet to hear. You always want what’s best for any child, and it sounds like Deena and her husband are prepared to give little Christopher John just that.
