Juelia Kinney & Fiancé Aaron Bass Reveal Sex of Their Baby
It's a boy for Juelia Kinney and Aaron Bass!
Juelia, who first appeared on Chris Soules' season of "The Bachelor," revealed the happy news on Instagram Monday. She posted a photo with her fiancé and their dog as blue smoke emanates from a handheld device.
Juelia acknowledged that the photo bears a resemblance to what happened when a gender reveal party sparked a fire in San Bernardino County in early September.
The "Bachelor in Paradise" alumna began her caption, "We were reluctant to post this picture because our hearts were saddened to know that a fire in CA started from a gender reveal. this was taken before we heard about this and couldn’t hold back anymore... IT’S A BOY!!!!!!!!!!"
Her note continued, "now Aaron and I have to figure out what the heck we are going to name him (suggestions??!!) So excited for this precious gift we have been given!!!!! Ireland and the boys wanted a sister but another brother will have to do ;) (Kevy is excited too 😜🎉)"

Juelia and Aaron, who is the brother of "Bachelor in Paradise's" Evan Bass, announced their engagement July 25, 2018.
She wrote at the time, "This man. From the time I met him last year in Mexico I thought to myself he is hot - and would make such a good husband from all the good energy I felt from his heart. I didn’t think much more of it because I lived in San Diego and he lived in Nashville. Little did I know he was going to come visit me and little did I know I would feel sick to my stomach when he left to go back home."

She added, "I knew I hadn’t felt that special or that close to someone in pretty much ever, and had no idea how it would work out. I am so happy that our relationship not only developed so much over the next couple months, but flourished. The long distance was hard but we knew what we wanted."
Juelia and Aaron were scheduled to wed June 5, but COVID-19 forced them to change those plans. Instead, the couple decided to travel to Arizona and "have a pretend wedding" in the backyard of their Airbnb.
