Little Bebe, we can\u2019t wait to meet you, hold you, and watch you grow,\u201d the pair shared via Instagram<\/a>, revealing their pregnancy pictures. \u201cWe already love you to the moon and back \u2014 Mom & Dad.\u201d<\/p>\n The couple met on season 7 of Bachelor in Paradise<\/em> in 2021, after Becca decided to give the Bachelor<\/em> franchise<\/a> a third chance after two failed engagements with Arie Luyendyk Jr.<\/strong><\/a> and Garrett Yrigoyen<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Thomas joined Bachelor Nation<\/a> when he was on Katie Thurston<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s season, quickly becoming the villain after he was accused of being there for the \u201cwrong reasons\u201d before getting eliminated in week four.<\/p>\n Sparks were flying between the real estate agent and podcast host on BIP<\/em> and fans were for it up until the end, when Becca broke it off with Thomas on their last day in Mexico. They rekindled after filming ended and have been together ever since.<\/p>\n After the BIP<\/em> finale aired, Becca shared they were back together on Instagram. \u201cI\u2019m sorry for breaking up with you on national television, but I\u2019ll take every day to make it up to you, Tommy,\u201d she captioned the October 2022 post<\/a>. \u201cThanks for making my heart smile far more than it ever has. Now time to start this real life @thomasajacobs.\u201d<\/p>\n Explaining the reasoning behind the breakup and makeup, Becca answered some questions on the \u201cTalking It Out With Bachelor Nation\u201d podcast hosted by Mike Johnson<\/strong> and Dr. Bryan Abasolo<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cWe came back [home] and had to explore that on our own away from the cameras but in that moment [on the beach during the finale], I think that was game-changing for me \u2014 because I have really never had somebody fight, I would say, like, tooth and nail to want to keep a relationship with me,\u201d Becca said in October 2021.<\/p>\n Becca received lots of love from her beau when she returned as the host of 2022 Bachelor Live on Stage<\/em>.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m so freaking proud of you! Watching you take center stage with such presence and grace was nothing short of amazing,\u201d the realtor raved in a March 2021 Instagram post<\/a>. \u201cWelcome home baby, you were born to be out there. \u2014 Your #1 Fan.\u201d<\/p>\n Becca responded, writing, \u201cI couldn\u2019t have gotten through these last few days without you. You get my final rose for the rest of forever. I love you.\u201d<\/p>\n After seven months together, Becca took matters into her own hands and proposed to Thomas.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cIn the ultimate plot twist \u2026 HE SAID \u2018YES,\u2019\u201d the former publicist shared on Instagram<\/a> in May 2022, with celebratory photos of the couple. \u201cWe\u2019ve been keeping this secret just between us and close family and friends for a while but we\u2019re so excited to shout it from the rooftops!\u201d<\/p>\n She continued,\u00a0\u201cI finally found my chauffeur for life and the one who makes my heart smile every single day. I can\u2019t wait to do it all with you Tommy, thanks for making me the happiest gal alive. I love you to the moon and back.\u201d<\/p>\n Months later, Thomas officially got down on one knee in October 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
