Melissa Rycroft Expecting First Child!

Melissa Rycroft and her husband are reportedly expecting!

According to People, the former “Dancing with the Stars” and “Bachelor” contestant is pregnant with her first child.

The 27-year-old reality star wed insurance agent Tye Strickland in December.

In a statement to Us Weekly about the baby news, Rycroft — who is due in February — said the pregnancy wasn’t planned.

“It was a shock. We weren’t even trying,” she told the mag. “It’s the most wonderful surprise in the world. It’s such a blessing.”

This marks the first child for the couple.

The reality star — who was infamously jilted on national TV by then-“Bachelor” Jason Mesnick, when Mesnick dumped her for a second shot at love with now-wife Molly Malaney — will be back on the small screen as co-host of the upcoming “The Bachelor Pad,” which premiers on ABC on August 9.
