Baby brother on the way! Pregnant Rachel Reilly and Brendon Villegas are expecting a son, Us Weekly confirms.
The Big Brother alums announced in May that they are adding baby No. 2 to their family after welcoming daughter Adora, now 4.
“Oh, BABY! We have a lot to celebrate this year,” the North Carolina native, 35, captioned her Instagram announcement at the time. “I can’t believe I’m pregnant! We’ve been trying for a while to have another.”
Her husband, 40, added with a post of his own: “We’re having another baby and couldn’t be happier!”
Throughout her pregnancy, Reilly has found it difficult giving Adora her “full attention.” She explained via Instagram in September: “I’ve been having major mom guilt for not doing the stuff I used to do with Adora — is this normal? This pregnancy has been so different to my first. I’ve been way sicker and I haven’t had the time or opportunity to get out as much. The craziness has made me worry how Adora will feel once the baby comes.”
Because of that, the actress has been trying to do “everything fun” with her little one in the meantime. “We’re going to make lots of memories as a family of 3!!!!” she captioned a July slideshow. “Like bike riding/beach days/wildlife viewing/camping — basically everything especially since we can’t really travel these days. I want her to know how important she is to us.”
She and Villegas met on the 12th season of BB in 2010, then appeared on The Amazing Race the following year for season 20. The couple tied the knot in September 2012 in Los Angeles.
When they announced their baby news three years later during a live portion of BB filming, the then-pregnant star gushed, “Well, you know, Julie [Chen], how I say no one comes between me and my man … except a Brenchel baby!”
Adora arrived in April 2016. Reilly tweeted at the time: “@brendonvbb12 & I are officially parents! Omg thank you for all the prayers and well wishes it was long hard and we did it all natural.”
