Becca Kufrin and Thomas Jacobs are growing their coven. The Bachelor in Paradise stars are expecting their second child together, just over two years after welcoming their son Benson.
"Something's brewing," Becca and Thomas said in a combined Instagram post on October 30. "Another little boo coming April, 2026."
The couple continued the Halloween theme in the video they released, with Becca, 35, dressed as a witch and Thomas, 33, in a skeleton shirt, casting a spell over a small cauldron with Benson's assistance. The couple then withdrew an ultrasound from the brew before cutting to a photo of Benson in a skeleton onesie, sitting next to a jack-o'-lantern labeled "Big Brother."
And Becca was thrilled that the “cat is out of the bag,” writing on her Instagram Story, “I must say I am the SLEEPIEST girl you've ever met.”
“I think this baby might be part vampire,” she joked, “sucking the life out of me.”
Since becoming a mother to Benson, the Bachelor Nation star—who married Thomas in 2023 after nearly two years together—has been open about her painful experience with postpartum depression.
"I was not prepared for the lack of sleep, the ever-changing hormones throughout the body, the breastfeeding, and the pumping journey," she told Momcozy in the beginning of 2019. "It definitely took a toll on me, particularly in the first few weeks and months. I honestly think I blacked out and was simply in a fog."
But she was grateful to Thomas, saying, "He was going through everything else with me, which really, really helped."
The postpartum troubles reached a climax in the first months after Benson's birth, when the Bachelor alum found herself crying "five times a day, every day."
"I've always had anxiety throughout my life, but it was just on a whole new level now that I had another human to take care of," she says. "At one point, Thomas said, 'Becca, keep cleaning. You cannot focus on anything else. When Benny is sleeping, you should organize everything. Simply take a rest. And I say, 'I can't. "I can't turn off my mind."
However, she was grateful that she discovered a method to handle it, saying, "It's been a wild ride, but it's also been the greatest blessing of my life." I can't imagine my life without my Benny. I’ve learned to let go of the reins a little bit and be able to ask for help.”
And, while she and Thomas debated whether to expand their family, she previously expressed how rewarding it was for her to witness her husband in father mode.
"To see Thomas become a dad is such a beautiful moment," she told Us Weekly in April. "He was my best friend and my love before we had Benson, but now it's just so much deeper because it's a whole different level of that bond and that intimacy when you have a little one."
