Former ‘Bachelorette’ DeAnna Pappas Gives Birth to a Baby Girl

Former 'Bachelorette' DeAnna Pappas and husband Stephen Stagliano welcomed their first child, a baby girl, on Thursday, Feb. 6.

The reality star and her husband (who is the brother of fifth season 'Bachelorette' contestant Michael Stagliano) couldn't be more overjoyed at the news, and shared their excitement on Twitter. The proud dad, whose birthday is Feb. 4, was the first to make the announcement, writing:

A few days later, the new mama followed suit, sharing with all of her followers her ultimate joy:

Fans of both 'The Bachelor' and 'The Bachelorette' will remember Pappas as the fourth Bachelorette, who came to star on the show after she was rejected by Brad Womack in 'The Bachelor's' eleventh season. On 'The Bachelorette,' she ultimately chose pro snowboarder Jesse Csincsak, but the two broke off their engagement soon after the season ended. But all's well that ends well: Pappas has been happily married to Stagliano since 2011.

Congratulations to the happy couple!
