The Bachelor’s Vanessa Hopes Baby Is Happy & Compassionate
In April, Vanessa announced that she and her husband, Josh, were expecting their first baby on Instagram. Though she struggled with some intense morning sickness in the first trimester, she remarked that her second trimester was a breeze, and she was enjoying every moment of pregnancy. When talking about her pregnancy at the time, she remarked that she hopes the baby is happy and compassion to everyone, something that was sweet and heartfelt.
Before her pregnancy, Vanessa and Josh had a beautiful wedding in their hometown at the Le Mount Stephen Hotel. Vanessa made her way down the aisle in a beautiful wedding gown designed by Maria Arciero Design, and it featured a J and V embroidered into the sleeves. The Bachelor alum and her fiancé went on to exchange traditional vows before saying the words, “I do,” and tying the knot. Though the wedding was originally scheduled to take place in 2020, the couple had to bump it to 2021 in order to stay compliant with COVID-19 regulations, though the wait was well worth it for these two to participate in the wedding of their dreams.
