Andi Dorfman and her husband, Blaine Hart, have welcomed their first baby.
“28 hours of labor later … and we are officially a party of 3,” Dorfman wrote alongside a sweet snap of her and Hart holding their newborn’s hand on Friday, December 20.
The former Bachelorette, 37, announced her pregnancy via Instagram in August. “Future Mom + Dad!!!!” she captioned a photo of the couple posing with sonogram images as she showed off her bare baby bump. “To say we are over the moon is an understatement! Baby Hart coming later this year 🫶🏻.”
Days later, Dorfman reflected on the timeline of her relationship with Hart. The pair reconnected in 2021 while on separate vacations in Italy, though they first met 15 years earlier when they were in college. Dorfman went public with Hart in December 2021, and they announced their engagement in March 2022. One year later, they tied the knot in Italy in May 2023.
“A little reminder that good things can happen fast … while it is so wild (and surreal) to look back at this, for anyone who needs to hear this and those of you asking and seeking comfort about blooming later in life, I hope you never give up and never doubt yourself and your timeline,” Dorfman wrote via Instagram alongside a video of her relationship milestones with Hart. “Trust me, I’ve been on both sides of it, and I know it’s not easy, but I’m a firm believer that anything can happen at any moment at any age at any time. So say yes to the date, take that trip, indulge and invest in yourself, spend time with your girlfriends and don’t be afraid to live YOUR life on YOUR time! It is yours after all 💕.”
In March 2023, Dorfman opened up about her strong connection with Hart, revealing how she knew he was right for her.
“I didn’t ever think he wasn’t The One,” she exclusively told Us Weekly at the time. “I don’t remember having that moment where I’m like, ‘Oh, yeah, this is the man I’m gonna marry.’ We weren’t ever not together, and we never had a bad time and it just built up into what we have now.”
Bachelor Nation was first introduced to Dorfman during Juan Pablo Galavis’ season 18 of The Bachelor in 2014. Later that year, she appeared as the lead of season 10 of The Bachelorette. While she got engaged to Josh Murray on the show, they ultimately split in January 2015.
