Love Is Blind<\/em><\/a> season 3 alum Bartise Bowden<\/strong><\/a> shocked fans when he revealed on April 7 that he was the father of an infant son.<\/p>\n

\u201cMight\u2019ve been the villain on tv, but I\u2019m gonna be the hero for him,\u201d he captioned his bombshell announcement which was shared via Instagram<\/a>. \u201cInstagram, meet my little man,\u201d he added with the hashtag \u201cbig fella.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe went from \u2018zaddy\u2019 on screen to daddy in real life,\u201d he joked via his Instagram Story.<\/p>\n

The reality star \u2013 who fans watched get engaged to fellow podmate Nancy Rodriguez<\/strong><\/a> in the third season of the dating experiment<\/a> \u2013 went on to reveal that the little one\u2019s name is Aiden.<\/p>\n

\u201cReady to see your first ever Tiger Woods golf shot. Look at that,\u201d he said, turning the camera to his son. \u201cI used to do this with my dad. \u2026 Say \u2018hi,\u2019 Aiden.\u201d<\/p>\n

While fans were quick to question the timeline of events as his season of Love Is Blind<\/em> aired on the streaming service between October and November 2022, followed almost immediately by his appearance on season 1 of The Perfect Match<\/em><\/a>, which debuted on Valentine\u2019s Day 2023.<\/p>\n

However, it was later revealed that Aiden \u2013 whom Life & Style<\/em> exclusively revealed Bartise shares with Olivia Gross<\/a> \u2013 was born in late December 2022. While Love Is Blind<\/em> had already aired at the time of his son\u2019s birth, the season was filmed in the summer of 2021.<\/p>\n

One week after his announcement, the Netflix personality played coy on whether he was dating anyone during an Instagram Story Q&A, but went on to reveal his favorite thing about being a dad.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe first thing that comes to my mind is just when I\u2019m holding him and feeding him and the eye contact, you can, I can just feel the connection. He just stares at me and locks onto my eyes,\u201d Bartise said on April 14. \u201cHe\u2019ll grab my thumb. He plays with my hair on my arm.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cJust feeling that bond and connection. I can really feel how safe he feels when he\u2019s on me, near me, around me, when I\u2019m feeding him, when I\u2019m patting him on the back, when I\u2019m rubbing his head, when I\u2019m giving him kisses. Just feeling how safe and comfortable he feels through his eye contact is probably my favorite thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
