Clare Crawley Gets Emotional Thanking Fans After Revealing She’s Becoming a Mom: ‘My Heart Is So Full’
In our feels!
This week, former Bachelorette Clare Crawley announced that she and her husband Ryan Dawkins are expecting their first child via surrogate.
In a video posted to Instagram, the couple revealed that their family will be growing in January 2024 and that they can’t wait to meet baby Dawkins.
Clare’s post was flooded with love from her fellow Bachelor Nation stars and fans who have been following her journey for years.
Now, Clare took to her Instagram Stories to thank everyone for the outpouring of love and support.
The former Bachelorette wrote, “My heart is so full. I’m reading all of your messages now with tears in my eyes! You all have been with me through the highs and lows and it means the world to now share this with you! So many of you feel like family to me!”
And in another slide, Clare filmed herself getting emotional and tearing up from all the joy.
She said, “You guys, can you believe it?! I wanted to share so badly, but it’s this weird feeling of like if I share, is it going to jinx it? It’s just been something that’s so emotional and it’s been my whole life that I’ve waited for this.”
Clare went on adding, “I didn’t want to do anything to jinx it, but I wanted to share with you all so badly and it’s been hard holding it in. I can’t wait and I’m so happy that you are all now a part of this with me. You’ve been a part of my life for so long and all of your messages are everything I’ve ever dreamt of.”
We couldn’t be happier for Clare, and we love seeing all her dreams come true!
We can’t wait to meet baby Dawkins in a few short months.
