"I'm really excited," Roper said in a video after an ultrasound confirmed the baby's gender.

"This is the first moment it feels 100 percent real," Tolbert added in the clip. "I've seen her grow and I felt one little movement one time."

Roper and Tolbert competed on The Bachelor Season 19 and The Bachelorette Season 11, respectively, before meeting and getting engaged on Bachelor in Paradise. The couple married in January 2016 and announced their baby news in March.

"We're crazy grateful to finally announce a little secret we've been keeping," Roper tweeted March 8. "We're absolutely head over heels in love already!"
