Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Monica Garcia is growing her family! The reality star announced she is expecting her fifth baby, her first with her new boyfriend. “I literally just found out.”
Monica shared her baby news during an interview with Bachelor alum Nick Viall, who welcomed his first baby this year, on his podcast The Viall Files. Nick asked what was next for Monica following her one-season stint on the Bravo TV reality show. Hesitantly, Monica revealed she was seven weeks pregnant. ““I literally just found out. … I have not told one f—king person except for my best friend.”
Monica revealed that she learned about her pregnancy after going “into urgent care for something totally unrelated.” When asked about her baby’s father, the reality star admitted, “I have not even — I’ve been dating him for a year and no one even knows who he is.” She began to get emotional and went on to explain, “I should not be [pregnant]. I literally, I was on the urgent care floor bawling my eyes out. ‘Cause I’m like, ‘I’m 39, there’s no way.’ I’m on birth control. Like, by all means, I should not be pregnant. … It’s so scary, but it’s so crazy.” At the end of the episode, the Brea Baby founder revealed the name of her boyfriend to be Braxton.
The RHOSLC star shares four children with her ex-husband Mike Fowler: Bri, 18, Jaidyn, 13, West, 7, and Kendall, 6. The couple finalized their divorce last year.
Congratulations to Monica on the news of her pregnancy!
