“Vanderpump Rules” alum James Kennedy is going to be a dad!
Amid all the rumors, Kennedy, 34, confirmed he is expecting his first child with new girlfriend Jordan Meyers, 23.
She showed off her baby bump as they posed together at the grand opening of The Vanderpump Hotel on June 11 in Las Vegas.
Earlier in the day, in a statement to People magazine, James said, “We are thrilled to share that Jordan and I are expecting our first child together. We have previously kept our relationship out of the public eye, and this is the first time we’re sharing it publicly. We wanted to keep things personal while we were building our relationship together, and we’ve shared this news privately with close friends and family for some time now.”
Jordan is four months along in the pregnancy.
Of their relationship, Jordan revealed, “We initially connected on Instagram and then met in person at one of his shows. I’m from North Carolina, so I went to visit James for what was supposed to be ‘three days,’ which has now turned into eight months together.”
According to Jordan, they had a “strong spark” immediately.
She went on, “Watching our love grow and preparing to become parents together has been the most incredible experience.”
They didn’t go public with their relationship until now.
She explained, “As we prepare for this next chapter, it felt like the right moment to share it more widely. This is an incredibly special and meaningful time for us, and we feel deeply grateful to be stepping into this new chapter surrounded by love and support from our family and friends.”

James and Ally had been together for three years.
