"Never letting go," the television star, 32, captioned the image.

Mitchell and Babel, 39, were first linked together in January 2017. The couple first announced that they were expecting a child together in June.

The pair held a gender reveal party in July with a Power Rangers fight between a blue and pink ranger with the pink ranger eventually winning.

Mitchell previously had a miscarriage in 2018 after being pregnant for 14 weeks.
