Bachelor couple Arie Luyendyk Jr. and his fiancée Lauren Burnham are expecting their first child!

“I kind of had a feeling that I might be pregnant. So my friend insisted on bringing a pregnancy test over,” the 26-year-old told Us Weekly. “Arie came out with the test in his hand and tears in his eyes. He was like, ‘You’re pregnant!’”

“We weren’t trying, but we are so excited. It’s going to be a whole new chapter in our lives,” Arie added.

They are planning to get married in January after a tumultuous start to their relationship. If you don’t know, Arie originally chose Becca Kufrin at the end of his season of The Bachelor. He eventually dumped Becca and got back together with Lauren, his runner-up.

“Sending these out this week! January can’t come soon enough,” Arie wrote on Instagram.

Their wedding date is January 12, 2019 in Maui, Hawaii. The event will take place at the historic Haiku Mill.

“It’s in Maui — it’s at Haiku Mill which has this beautiful, old world feel with a lot of vines and greenery. It’s not your typical beach wedding. And it’s a private wedding, so not on TV — just a close group of friends. Probably 100 guests,” Arie said on The View.
