Jade Roper Reveals She Went into Labor with Son Brooks Watching Hannah Brown’s ‘Bachelorette’ Finale
Looking back.
Bachelor Nation fan-favorite couple Jade Roper Tolbert and Tanner Tolbert first fell in love and got engaged on the beach during Season 2 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Since then, they’ve gotten married and welcomed three children together: Emerson, Brooks, and Reed.
The couple loves to keep followers updated on their lives online. Recently, Jade and Tanner celebrated their son Brooks’ birthday.
While celebrating, Jade took to her Instagram Story and looked back on the day she gave birth to Brooks in their closet.
Over a series of photos and videos, the Bachelor Nation star walked followers through the events of that day and expressed, “Feels like yesterday.”
Jade shared that she first went into labor while watching the finale of Hannah Brown’s season of “The Bachelorette.”
She said, “My contractions didn’t come on until after my water broke. We were watching the finale of Hannah Brown’s ‘Bachelorette’ season right before this.”
Jade went on to reveal that Brooks was born that same evening after a very quick delivery.
“I was sitting in a butterfly position stretching on the floor and felt a hard thump in my pelvis,” she said. “And then 61 minutes later at 10:31, Brooks was born in our closet.”
The Bachelor Nation star recalled that the paramedics arrived just in time, and Brooks was born after only two pushes.
The family was then taken to the hospital to get checked out, and everything turned out fine.
Jade expressed, “And now we have this beautiful boy! He truly makes every day better with him in it. Love him so much.”
What a wild story and crazy connection to “The Bachelorette”! We love keeping up with the Tolbert family, and we’re wishing Brooks a happy birthday.
