A baby boy!

Who's Due Next? Celebs Who Are Expecting

McNeill and Okotie announced their pregnancy exclusively with PEOPLE back in September. "We're excited to announce that we are expecting our first child!" they said at the time. "It's surreal to think that less than two years ago we met for the first time at the altar and now we are expanding our family!"

"We are blessed to begin this new chapter and can't wait to meet our little bundle of joy," added the couple, who tied the knot during MAFS' ninth season, meeting for the first time at the altar on their wedding day, March 21, 2019.

Speaking with E! News recently, McNeill and Okotie opened up about what kind of parents they think they'll be.

"I think Greg is going to be a great dad on an account of how he takes care of those around him. He's very caring, has a huge heart and he really puts it out there on his sleeve," said McNeill, as Okotie added, "Deonna is very nurturing. She's been a mother to everybody in her life — me included."
