Last week on a new episode of "Married at First Sight," one couple decided to call it quits. Molly Duff and Jonathan Francetic didn't even make it to decision day and decided they were over. This week comes with good news as People is sharing that one couple is expecting a child! Jephte Pierre and Shawniece Jackson are expecting their first child together!
People announces the happy news
The thing is it doesn't sound like Shawniece was trying to have a baby. She shared the details saying, "When I found out I was pregnant, I was absolutely shocked.
I was in the emergency room because I felt awful and had no idea what was wrong. They came back and told me all my symptoms were from pregnancy and that I was pregnant. I was totally shocked." This wasn't the plan she had at all, but that is how it turned out for her.
She shared that she has always wanted to be a mom and Shawniece is really excited about the baby on the way. This couple did talk about the option of baby names on this season of the show, but that was just a talk and they had no idea at the time it would be a reality so soon. They do have a dog together, but this is their first child.
Will they stay together?
As of right now, nobody knows if Jephte Pierre and Shawniece Jackson will stay together.
That should be revealed tonight. The fact that they have a baby on the way may make them try a bit harder to make the relationship work. Regardless of anything, they are now going to be in each other's lives due to their child.
In a preview, Jephte made it clear he wasn't sure about his decision just yet. At that time, he didn't feel like they were in love with each other just yet.
They did get along great, but it was also really early in the relationship. Maybe they have decided to work out things at this point.
For now, they haven't talked about if they are going to stay together or not. The big two-hour reunion show will be tonight where they make their decisions. This may be where they actually talk about being pregnant as well because she probably knew already when they filmed it.
The couple decided to share the details about the baby before the show aired tonight on Lifetime.
