Love Is Blind star Jessica Batten has given birth to her first child, a baby boy.
The 38-year-old reality star and her husband Ben McGrath welcomed their son Dax on June 9, six months after .
New mum Jessica proudly shared the news of their new arrival on Instagram with a bundle of adorable photographs, including a snap of her lying in a hospital bed while Dax sleeps in an incubator beside her.
She also posted pictures of Ben’s two children from his previous relationship meeting their little half-sibling, as well as a photo of her beloved golden retriever Payton being introduced.
Captioning her post, Jessica simply wrote: ‘Meet Dax ?June 9, 2023.’
Her loved ones have been showering her with messages of congratulations, with fellow Love Is Blind star Giannina Gibelli commenting: ‘Yayyyyy he’s here!!!! ?????’
Kenny Barnes added: ‘Welcome to the world, Dax! ❤️’
Jessica married Ben last year after the pair found love in 2020. They tied the knot in a swanky ceremony in August in a private residence in Montecito, California.
Of course, Jessica shot to fame after appearing in the first season of Netflix’s Love Is Blind where she famously got engaged to Mark Cuevas in the pods before they’d ever set eyes on each other.
They had a rollercoaster relationship on the series, which was filmed in 2018 and aired in 2020, but things ended abruptly when she walked out on their wedding day, leaving him at the altar.
Mark ended up marrying his wife Aubrey Rainey in Ohio last year after they welcomed a baby together in 2020.
They are now parents to two sons, Ace and Axton.
Love Is Blind is available to stream on Netflix.
