BREAKING: Former ‘Bachelorette’ stars JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers have welcomed their first child, a daughter named Romy Blair Rodgers, born on December 23, 2025. Fletcher shared the joyous news just moments ago on Instagram, revealing that the delivery was an unexpected emergency C-section.
In an emotional post, Fletcher, aged 35, described the whirlwind experience: “Went in for our weekly sonogram this past Tuesday and found out we needed to deliver via emergency C-section that day,” she wrote. “At 5:37 PM on December 23, we met our girl. Romy Blair Rodgers you are our whole world.”
The couple, who first fell in love during season 12 of ‘The Bachelorette’ in 2016, tied the knot six years later in May 2022. They had openly discussed their desire to start a family, sharing their hopes and challenges along the way. “We’re at that time in our life where we’re like, ‘Oh, my gosh, we’ve got to have a kid tomorrow,’” Rodgers had told Us Weekly in April 2022.
Fletcher had previously noted their “fertility journey,” expressing optimism about becoming parents. “When the time comes and we have a little baby Rodgers, it’ll be a very, very exciting moment,” she stated in a July 2025 interview.
The couple had been eagerly preparing for their baby girl, even sharing a heartfelt post on Instagram a few months prior, announcing their pregnancy with the sentiment: “We love you so much already, our sweet rainbow baby. 🌈🕊️ Baby Rodgers coming January 2026 🤍.”
Rodgers honored Fletcher on her birthday in November 2025, praising her resilience and strength during pregnancy. He expressed his admiration, stating, “It has been such an amazing journey watching you navigate pregnancy… You continue to put others before yourself.”
