The 90 Day Fiancé family is growing!

Emily and Kobe Bieberly, who starred in 90 Day Fiancé season 9 and 90 Day Fiance: Pillow Talk, are expecting their third child together.

The TLC stars revealed their baby news on social media Thursday in a collaboration Instagram post with the network.

The announcement included a carousel of two photos of the family of four posing amongst the autumn leaves and trees. The couple’s two children, Koban, 4, and Scarlett, 2, are seen at the feet of their parents showing off the new baby’s sonogram. Behind them, Emily and Kobe lovingly embrace one another, as well as in their solo shot in the second photo.

“Congrats to Emily and Kobe who are welcoming a new baby next year! 😊💕," TLC's caption read.

The caption also included a statement from Emily.

“Kobe and I couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome another beautiful baby into our family! Koban and Scarlett are both so excited," the statement read. “They make sure to sing, kiss, and hug mommy’s belly every day. We have decided that baby #3’s gender will be a surprise. We can’t wait to become a family of 5 in 2024!”

The couple, who married in 2022, met in China while they were working abroad. Two weeks after connecting, Kobe quickly proposed to Emily while they were both still living in China.

A month after he popped the question, Emily learned she was pregnant with their eldest child, Koban. But once Emily returned to Kansas, Kobe — a Cameroon native — remained abroad due to his visa being delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Before their appearance on 90 Day Fiancé, Kobe was unable to meet their son, but once their season began Kobe joined Emily in her family home in Kansas.

As the couple prepared for their wedding during filming, Emily discovered she was pregnant with their second child. The pregnancy became an ongoing storyline during their season.

Their unplanned pregnancy was a problematic development because Emily's parents had agreed to let the couple and Koban stay at their house under the condition the fiancés do not have another child before they found and moved to a new home.

The couple proceeded to keep their news private, which became difficult on their wedding day. During their wedding episode, Kobe is seen with his future father-in-law and wrestling with keeping the secret from Emily's parents.
