Shane Keough Is Going to Be a Dad, and He Announced It in the Cutest Way (UPDATED)

UPDATE (April 21, 2023, 10:38 a.m.): Days after sharing the news that he's going to be a dad, The Real Housewives of Orange County son Shane Keough shared an update on his big baby news by revealing if he and his wife, Francheska, are expecting a boy or a girl. He shared the exciting update on Instagram alongside photos and video from the reveal party, captioning the moment: "Baby girl we can’t wait to meet you."

The original story continues below.

A former The Real Housewives of Orange County kid is about to have a kid of his own! Shane Keough, the son of RHOC alum Jeana Keough, made an adorable Instagram announcement on April 16. And with Shane’s post, it’s official: He’s going to become a dad, and Jeana is going to become a grandma… again!

Jeana’s daughter, Kara Keough Bosworth, is already a mama. Kara’s baby boy Vaughn was born in 2021, a year after she tragically lost her second child, son McCoy, a few days after his birth in April 2020. Kara and her husband, Kyle Bosworth, are also parents to an adorable little girl named Decker.

“She’s a warrior, man,” Shane once said of Kara on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. “Seeing her little boy, seeing the joy that he’s bringing to the family and so many moms around the world who have suffered a loss like that, it’s inspiring beyond belief.”

Kara will no doubt be a brilliant aunt to Shane’s baby, who’s due to arrive in October. In his announcement, the baseball pro shared a picture of a onesie that read “Baby Keough.” The wee outfit was decorated with white flowers, and Shane also shared a couple of photos from his wife Francheska Perez’s sonogram.

In the next slides, Shane showed himself and Francheska cuddled up on a blanket, smiling at the sonogram images and cuddling their dog. In the caption, Shane wrote: “Keough family grows by one October 2023.”

After being engaged for two months, Shane and Francheska tied the knot in Florida last December. The couple had a gorgeous outdoor ceremony that saw them exchanging vows beneath a weeping willow tree at the Congaree and Penn farm in Jacksonville. Francheska looked stunning in a white halter-top gown with a matching veil, while Shane made a dashing groom in his spiffy tuxedo.

The intimate event was for family only. Shane’s two younger siblings, Kara and Colton Keough, were in attendance, and one of them played a major role in the wedding. Kara was the officiant!
