Former Bachelor star Colton Underwood is a dad! The reality star and his husband Jordan C. Brown have announced the birth of their first baby together. “Our world is a million times better with you in it.”

Colton shared a series of images to announce his little one’s birth, including one of the new family standing on the doorstep of their house. The couple revealed they were expecting a baby via surrogate and that they would be the proud parents of a baby boy. Their son was born on September 26th, arriving a bit earlier than his October due date. Colton and Jordan chose to name their son Bishop Colton Brown-Underwood.

When announcing he was expecting a baby, Colton opened up about his journey to increase his sperm count, sharing that he had to go through “sperm rehab” to begin the IVF process. The couple went through the process of finding an egg donor and surrogate, and they learned two weeks after their first transfer that it was success. They would be having a baby!

Colton confirmed he was in a relationship with the political strategist in December 2021. The couple went on to tie the knot in a three-day celebration in Napa Valley. Having a family was always in the plans for the couple. The Coming Out Colton star shared with PEOPLE that parenthood “was one of the things we bonded over early in our relationship. We both wanted to be dads. But it’s been such an incredible experience for us to go through this together, and I cannot wait to watch Jordan become a dad.”

Congratulations to Colton and Jordan on the arrival of baby Bishop!
