Bachelor In Paradise star Jordan Kimball and his wife Christina (née Creedon) announced that they are expecting a baby after getting married earlier this year. Jordan revealed his relationship with Christina, a special education teacher from Texas, in November 2019. They met at LAX airport when Jordan helped her with her luggage. On Christmas Eve in 2020, Jordan proposed to Christina in their church in Houston before mass. They got married on January 15, 2022, in Houston, Texas, in an outdoor ceremony.
In an Instagram post, Jordan announced that Christina is pregnant. The Bachelor In Paradise alum shared a series of photographs of himself and Christina, including a few of them holding sonogram images of the baby with a sign that said, "Baby Kimball Arriving 2023." He wrote to Christina, "From bending knee to saying vows at the altar, it’s all been a dream. But nothing has moved me like holding your hand and hearing our baby’s heartbeat." Jordan went on to say, "We are starting our family through love and with love, I truly believe you were a godsend and now we have the miracle of new life between us." He concluded his post by saying that he loves Christina more than ever. He added, "Cheers to the beauty of the changes your body is making and how graceful you’ve made it look. I’m so excited to see you as a Mother. I love you Christina!"
Bachelor Nation's Jordan Kimball & Wife Christina Excited To Become Parents
The Bachelor In Paradise alum and Christina revealed more details about the pregnancy to Us Weekly. She is 12 weeks pregnant and due at the beginning of summer 2023. She shared that she took four pregnancy tests before she told Jordan she was having a baby. When she told him the good news, she surprised him with his favorite treat: a carrot cake. Jordan was returning from being out of town, and he said that he was "kind of suspecting" that she might be pregnant. He said that she put the pregnancy test next to the cake, and it was "a very, very cute and exciting way to find out." The couple plans to find out the sex of the baby in the New Year. Christina said that she would be content with a boy or a girl, and that she cannot wait to find out. The former Bachelorette star shared that since they want to continue to have kids, he hopes that their first child is a boy so that he can be the "older brother protector." However, he added that what is most important is that they have a "happy, healthy baby." As for names, if the baby is a girl, they will honor Christina's grandmother, and they will give the child Jordan's grandfather and father's middle name if the baby is a boy.
Jordan was quite the character when he appeared on The Bachelorette and Bachelor In Paradise. He first appeared in Becca Kufrin's season in 2018, where the model and realtor was known for his impeccable style and quick wit. During Bachelor In Paradise season 5 later that year, he got engaged to Jenna Cooper, but they broke up when text messages between Jenna and another man were leaked. It appeared that she had been unfaithful, but Jenna insisted that the messages were fake. However, Jordan broke up with her because he felt that he could no longer trust her.
The following year, Jordan returned for Bachelor In Paradise season 6, but he was disqualified in week 2 when he threw Christian Estrada to the ground during an argument. Jordan has matured greatly since his days with the Bachelor franchise. He is a loving and supportive husband to Christina and is now ready to be a father. Jordan found true love after Bachelor In Paradise, and fans wish him all the best as he begins this next chapter of parenthood with Christina.
