Daniella also spoke at length to People about trying to get pregnant and her hope and dreams for her first child: “I was really adamant about tracking my ovulation with the Clearblue Connected Ovulation Test System and got pretty good at that, so I knew exactly when we tried there was a really solid chance it could happen.”

She then revealed how she immediately drove to see Andrew at work after finding out that she was pregnant: "I got there and just said, ‘I got you a coffee’ and I stuck the test in the coffee cup. I was shaking, I was laughing, my smile was so enormous that my face was sore for a while after.”

As it stands, Daniella is yet to find out the sex of the baby but she has said that she wants a boy: “It’s just something about a boy. I grew up around a lot of guys in the neighborhood; I was probably one of the only girls. I also had a little brother who is still, to this day, like my kid, and I just have a lot of experience with boys. If it’s a girl it will be a very new experience, which I actually look forward to, but if it’s a boy, I think I’m ready.”

Daniella and Andrew got engaged in 2017 after seven years of dating. This will be their first child.

Congratulations Daniella and Andrew!
