Amanda Stanton, renowned reality TV star and actress, has delightful news! The Bachelor veteran is excitedly expecting her third child, and first one with her husband Michael Fogel, as narrated by the phrase “We have some catching up to do!” The couple used a dual Instagram post to update fans – two photos of the pair, where Amanda shows off her blossoming baby bump with her unbuttoned jeans and Michael embracing her from behind. The couple’s first shared child will be welcomed into the world in January 2024. In the caption, Amanda expressed her long-standing desire for this day to come and the overwhelming joy she’s experienced over the past months.
Amanda, a Bachelor in Paradise alum, is also mother to two daughters, Kingsley, and Charlie, ages 10 and 8 respectively, who are from a previous relationship. Amanda and Michael’s romance bloomed from a two year friendship, culminating in an engagement in December 2021 and a subsequent wedding in September at Kestrel Park, Santa Ynez, California. Notably, Kingsley served as the maid of honor and Charlie, the flower girl at the wedding. The roles brought great delight to both girls.
Amanda found incorporating Michael into her family seamless, which she attributed to their prior friendship. She expressed how smoothly everything had worked out between them owing to their history. As to be expected, Amanda’s daughters are thrilled at the prospect of referring to him as their stepfather officially.
Our hearty congratulations to Amanda and Michael on the forthcoming extension of their family! As they embark on this new chapter, we wish them nothing but pure love and bliss.
