Brad Womack famously dumped both of his final two women during his first Bachelor season. He returned for Season 15 and found love with Emily Maynard. However, their engagement didn’t last long. Part of what caused their split was her refusal to uproot her young daughter and relocate.
After the relationship ended, Emily went on to star as The Bachelorette. The season filmed in Charlotte, North Carolina, instead of at the famous mansion in Los Angeles, California. She got engaged to Jef Holm but they split up after a few months.
Emily Maynard met her future husband in church, not on reality TV. She married Tyler Johnson in 2014. The couple has five children together. The Bachelorette star also has another daughter from her previous relationship with Ricky Hendrick. The racecar driver died in a plane crash in 2004 when his fiance, Emily Maynard, was pregnant with their child.
Now that child is having a child of their own. Emily Maynard is about to be a grandma at just 39.
Emily Maynard’s Daughter Pregnant With 1st Baby
Emily Maynard shares five kids with her husband. Their youngest son, Jonas, has Down syndrome. Her oldest child, Ricki, was a major part of Emily’s Bachelor and Bachelorette seasons. As a single mom, Emily put her daughter’s needs first and foremost.
Now her daughter is about to become a mom herself. Ricki Hendrick shared on social media that she was pregnant with her first baby. She shared ultrasound pics of the growing baby.
She didn’t share details about who the father is. But according to The U.S. Sun, Ricki revealed that she’s expecting a girl. Emily Maynard has yet to publicly address her daughter’s pregnancy or becoming a grandmother at just 39 years old.
Bachelor Fans In Shock
Bachelor Nation fans were floored by the news that Emily Maynard’s daughter was pregnant. Many thought Ricki was still in her teens. However, she’s 20. Emily Maynard was 19 when she had Ricki. Check out some of the social media comments about the pregnancy news:
- “Emily is only a year older than me, and my kid just left the toddler stage. I still feel like a child frequently, so it’s so crazy to think about becoming a grandparent at this age.”
- “lol not me at 39 with a 3 yr old”
- “Being a 39 yo grandmother is crazy”
- “WOWZA. i remember watching her season when i was in high school”
- “I’m only a few years younger than Emily, but she’s about to become a grandma and I don’t even have any kids yet.”
- “We’re all old lmao”
One Bachelor fan claimed that things might not be good between Emily and her daughter. They noted that Ricki unfollowed her mom on social media.
Congratulations to Ricki on her pregnancy and Emily Maynard on becoming a grandma!
