Five years after his engagement to season 11 Bachelorette Kaitlyn Bristowe ended, Shawn Booth is letting Bachelor Nation back into his personal life –— revealing that he's going to be a dad.
After teasing “a very big announcement,” Booth revealed he’s “going to be a dad.”
“December 12, baby Booth on their way,” he continued. “It’s happening. I’m gonna be a father. The mother is somebody who I’ve been close with for years. We’ve had a relationship and we’ve dated. This just isn’t some random girl I met at Honky Tonk Central. This is a big surprise for the both of us. [To be] open and honest, this wasn’t something that was planned. But it will be and is the most beautiful surprise I’ve ever had in my life. And it’s gonna be very special. I can’t wait. I’m ready.
“Going through pregnancy, and trying to, like, keep it under wraps is obviously tricky. We didn’t tell really anybody. … She told, like, her close family and friends,” he said. “I waited, probably, 10 to 12 weeks to tell really anybody. … Just [a] couple weeks ago, she started coming back to [my] gym. I was like, ‘Come back to the gym. Get in there, like, let’s not worry about what anybody says.’ And Nashville is a small town.
“She’s going to be such a good mother. And it’s going to be incredible. It’s very overwhelming,” he said. “And it’s also tough, too, for the dad because it takes a while to really fully grasp that you’re having a kid — your body’s not changing, you’re not dealing with all the hormones, and you want to, like, as much as you can, help out. But you also can’t really do anything. … So she’s been an absolute champ, a rock star through it all.
