The Bachelor alum Andi Dorfman has shared her newborn son’s name one day after announcing his birth.

“Welcome to the world … Hudson McGraw Hart 💙,” Dorfman, 39, wrote via Instagram on Monday, November 9, alongside hospital photos with husband Blaine Hart and their baby boy.

The reality TV alum continued, “8 lbs 2 oz and 21 inches of pure love and snuggles and already melting our hearts and making me quickly understand what everyone means when they say there’s something so special about being a boy mama 🥹.”

Dorfman then shared the sweet meaning behind their son’s name.

“Named Hudson after mom’s favorite place, NYC, and McGraw to carry on a special family name on Dad’s side,” she explained.

Dorfman and Hart are also parents to daughter Harper, 22 months. The couple announced their pregnancy with baby No. 2 in June.

“Harper, the BIG SIS coming this fall! So grateful for baby #2 to join the crew. These are truly what our dreams are made of 🥹🥰,” Dorfman captioned photos from her maternity shoot at the time.

Dorfman later reflected on expanding her family in a post last month.

“I can’t believe we are soaking in the last few weeks of just us three 🥹,” she wrote. “I find myself holding Harper a little tighter lately and feeling bittersweet knowing this chapter is coming to an end. It feels like for so long it’s just been us three (even thought it’s only been less than two years) and honestly, I am sad/emotional knowing things will never be exactly like this again. But I remind myself of the excitement that awaits us: Harper gets to be a big sister, Blaine gets to raise a son and we as a family get to become a fearsome foursome!”

Dorfman first rose to reality TV fame on season 18 of The Bachelor in 2014. Later that year, she led The Bachelorette season 10.

Dorfman reconnected with Hart in 2021 after previously meeting him through a mutual friend 15 years earlier. The couple got engaged in 2022 and tied the knot in 2023.
