‘Married At First Sight’ Babies Update: Former Reality Stars Are Now Parents
Lifetime’s “Married at First Sight” doesn’t work out for everyone, but that doesn’t mean they don’t find their happily ever after elsewhere. Many former “MAFS” stars have welcomed babies since the cameras stopped rolling.
Sam Role: The Season 3 participant split from husband Neil Bowlus at the end of filming. Sam has since met her soul mate, analyst Chris Wise. They announced Tuesday that Sam is four months pregnant. The couple got engaged in January.
“We both really want a little boy, but we wouldn’t be disappointed to have a little girl!” she told People. “All that really matters is that the baby is happy and healthy.”
The pregnancy was particularly exciting for Sam since she wasn’t sure she could get pregnant. She was diagnosed with endometriosis, which can make it difficult for women to conceive.
Neil congratulated his ex-wife as soon as the news went public. Neil and Sam have been vocal about remaining friends post-“Married at First Sight.”
Congratulations @Sam_MAFS 🙆♂️😀 Super excited for you and the family!! You will be a great momma 🤰🤱 If it's a boy I am formally submitting the name Corneilius (Neil for short) for consideration 😬 #MarriedAtFirstSight #MAFS #MAFSFamily https://t.co/Nm9A9CmqEQ

Nick Pendergrast: In “MAFS” Season 4, Nick married Sonia Granados. They split about a year later in March 2017. In July, Nick revealed that he was expecting twins with AfterBuzz TV host Heather Yerrid, who hosted a “Married at First Sight” after show. The personality also didn’t believe she could get pregnant. Their twins were born Dec. 10, 2017, two months ahead of their due date. They welcomed a boy named Logan Joseph and a girl named Layla Rae.

Sonia didn’t seem thrilled when she heard the news, noting that she has “a right to [be] irate [for] many things.” Still, she wished the couple well.
