There’s going to be a whole lotta love this spring for Carly Waddell and Evan Bass. The Bachelor in Paradise couple, who are expecting a baby girl, have been documenting her pregnancy every step of the way, and this week they shared a new ultrasound pic of their little one with some very exciting info: the baby’s due date!
It looks like the reality stars are in for an extra special Valentine’s Day, because their daughter is due to arrive just two days later. “I’m due Feb 16th! 🙌🏽👶🏼,” Waddell captioned the pics that she popped onto Instagram.
The little one still has a while to wait before making her big entrance into the world, but she already has quite a personality. “Our daughter is already devious and uncooperative and standing on her head doing yoga when all we want to do is take pictures of her 😂 seems pretty typical of a child made from @theebass and I,” the mom-to-be shared. “Can’t wait til she greets the world! (Also I still barely have a bump….so this pic must do for now.”
Followers were quick to express their excitement and support in the comments — although some fans hope Waddell gives birth a few days early or late so they can “share a birthday with a Paradise baby.”
One follower had an especially enthusiastic request, writing, “Can you guys get a TV show please? I would love to see your family and all the crazy laughs you guys have. Pretty sure most of America would want to watch it too!!!!”
We don’t know about the rest of the country, but Bachelor Nation has indeed loved watching Waddell and Bass’ love story play out, from their first meeting on season three of Bachelor in Paradise to their wedding on season four — and then their baby announcement in August, complete with an ultrasound in front of a live studio audience.

Back in January, we introduced you to a feel-good cause to inspire your New Year's resolution: a walking challenge to help raise funds for the amazing cancer fighters at The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I took part in the challenge with the Brit + Co team and ended up walking 105+ miles in January — it was awesome.
This spring, there's a new challenge on the horizon, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Big Climb. The ask: On May 15, 2021, you can step up to take cancer down by committing to climb 1,311 steps, walking 3.2 miles, or doing 440 chair step-ups at home as part of the Big Climb. If you need some motivation to bring movement back into your daily routine — look no further!
As always, it's free to sign up, but climbers are encouraged to set a fundraising goal to help beat cancer. We'll be organizing another Brit + Co team to step up, and I hope you'll join us too! Keep scrolling for a peek at where I'll be completing the challenge in my Los Angeles neighborhood around the hidden Silver Lake Stairs. Happy climbing!
Never underestimate the power of an accountability buddy! I asked my in-laws, my partner, and a few friends to join me so we can keep each other motivated and accountable in completing the challenge — virtual high-fives all around! Also, my dog Fox is a great climber, too.
An aesthetically pleasing backdrop is a huge motivator for me! I'm fortunate to have all sorts of painted steps around my neighborhood to keep the challenge interesting, but you can also keep cool inside with at-home chair step-ups.
Don't forget to share your progress on social — #BigClimb!
Feel free to break the challenge up if you need to by tackling half the distance in the AM and half at sunset. Here's me 1,311 steps later and ready for a break — but, think I earned this one!
