Roper announced Reed's birth Saturday on Instagram. She and Tolbert had announced in May that they were expecting their third child.

"Although this time has its uncertainties, we are so thankful and excited for this baby. I truly believe babies being born during this time are here for a special reason, to be light workers," Roper said at the time.

"We are beyond happy to love another baby, to give Emmy and Brooks another sibling and to have our children be so close! #partyof5 #babynumber3," she added.

Roper and Tolbert met and got engaged during Bachelor in Paradise Season 2 and married in January 2016. Roper previously appeared in Chris Soules' season of The Bachelor, while Tolbert competed in Kaitlyn Bristowe's season of The Bachelorette.
