From the pods to motherhood.
“Love Is Blind” star Megan “Sparkle Meg” Walerius confirmed she welcomed a baby with a new man during the Netflix show’s Season 9 reunion special.
“I am a mom now,” Walerius revealed. “I had a baby boy two and a half months ago.”
“I have a little boy and he is my whole world. And, you know, I now know more than ever I was meant on this Earth to be a mom, and he’s amazing. Our family’s very happy.”
Walerius went on to confirm she welcomed her baby, Brooks, with her partner Paul, who was in the audience during the reunion.
Walerius said she and Paul were introduced through a mutual friend three months after filming wrapped, and they got “pregnant three months into dating.”
“We definitely had our ups and downs. I’m not going to say it was perfect, but Paul’s been amazing and we’re — we’re very happy.”
Hosts Nick and Vanessa Lachey then went on to share photos of Walerius’ pregnancy as well as baby Brooks.
“I’m definitely learning to be a lot more selfless. I think becoming a mom is the ultimate act of selflessness,” Walerius said.
Walerius’ shocking revelation comes after Page Six obtained photos of an unidentified man — who we now know was Paul — carrying a baby from the reality star’s Denver home on Oct. 19 and 20.
An eyewitness told the US Sun at the time that the then mystery man “seems to be living in Megan’s home” and “has been in and out at all hours of the day.”
While Walerius was not pictured with Paul at the time, she was spotted running errands, hitting a gym, visiting a hospital and going grocery shopping at Whole Foods.
In Season 9 of the popular dating show, Walerius dated Jordan Keltner sight unseen in the pods and they got engaged.
Days before their wedding was set to take place, Walerius, who claimed to be well off financially, told Keltner, who is a single dad, that she was ending their engagement because she had “reservations” about their different lifestyles.
“I still have reservations, and that’s not how I should be feeling going into my wedding [and] our wedding,” she told him in the finale, which became available to stream last week.
Walerius also had doubts about becoming a stepmom to Keltner’s 5-year-old son, Luca, whom he welcomed in a previous relationship.
“I mean, maybe I’m just not cut out to be a stepmom. Honestly, this has me questioning if I’m even cut out to be a mom,” she emotionally said in a confessional.
“I don’t know, maybe I am too caught up in my own life. All I wanted coming into this experiment was to find love and to find my partner. I will love Jordan always — but he’s not my partner,” she added.
“Love Is Blind” Season 9 is available to stream in full on Netflix.
