This Love Is Blind x Bachelor crossover is everything.

Congrats are in order! Blake Horstmann and Giannina Gibelli — alums from The Bachelorette and Love Is Blind — are officially parents. On April 2, the couple took to IG to announce the birth of their first child, a baby boy named Heath Orion Horstmann. The couple, who has been publicly together since April 2022, shared that they welcomed their son on March 29.

“His first breath took ours away 💙,” Gibelli and Horstmann captioned their joint Instagram post. “Meet Heath Orion Horstmann born on Good Friday 3/29/24 🦋.”

“Everyone is home happy and healthy — his pregnancy and birth were a dream come true ☁️our lives are brighter, fuller, and forever better,” they continued. “Thank you for all of the love and well wishes, Heath has so many people who love him 💫 we’re parents!”

Horstmann shared some more moments with his son on IG Stories, writing, “All the cliche things are completely true. My heart literally lives outside me now.”

The golden couple of dating reality shows also spoke to Us Weekly about their baby boy. “Our baby is his father’s twin!” Gibelli told the outlet. “There are so many similarities it’s adorable to see them light up in each other. As far as personality goes, he’s an Aries like his mama so we’ll see, he just might be the perfect mix of both of us.”
