Former Bachelor in Paradise star Jade Roper took to Instagram on Saturday, July 11 to share a photo of her quickly growing baby bump. She and her husband, Tanner Tolbert, met on the reality television dating show and are currently expecting their third child together. The pair have two children under 3 years old, Emmy and Brooks.
Roper is currently 21 weeks along with her pregnancy. In the social media photo, she wore a blue sports bra that exposed her bump and matching blue yoga pants. Her belly looked significantly larger than the last baby bump photo she shared on social media. The mother of soon-to-be-three wore her long dark hair down in natural waves and appeared to have on some light makeup.
She accessorized with a couple of rings on both hands. She rested one hand on her belly and used the other to snap a photo of herself as she stood in front of a mirror. The former reality television star posed in her family home in San Juan Capistrano, California, modern-looking decor and furniture visible behind her.
In her caption, Roper opened up about some of the more challenging aspects of her pregnancy thus far. She has been suffering from heartburn as well as other pain. However, she has also been able to celebrate joyful moments such as feeling her child’s movements within the womb.
Many people took to the comments section of this particular post to compliment her on the photo as well as offer up their own suggestions for dealing with unpleasant pregnancy symptoms.
“Wendy’s frosties are amazing for heartburn! My saving grace,” wrote one social media user.
“Omg those clothes look comfortable and you look adorable!! Congrats,” wrote another follower.
“You are such a beautiful mama inside and out!” gushed one more of Roper’s fans.
Other followers inquired about when Roper and Tolbert will be sharing their unborn child’s gender on social media. The pair announced their pregnancy on May 28 with a cute post on Instagram, including ultrasound photos, as The Inquisitr previously reported. You can view that post here . However, they have not offered up any hints about the gender of the child or what they intend to name him or her.
In their comical pregnancy announcement post, an exhausted-looking Tolbert lay on the floor holding up a pregnancy test. Roper, Emmy and Brooks sat on his back as they posed for the photo. Emmy appeared to be crying, while Brooks had a frown on his face, adding to the hilariously imperfect image.
