The couple broke the news that they were expecting in July.
Their first child together comes as a surprise after they started the in vitro fertilization process and had an embryo implant scheduled for the fall.
Heather told People, “It was a huge shock. We just weren’t expecting this. We had just gone through IVF. We had embryos on ice. We had a plan.”

For a long time, Heather was content being a “bonus mom” to Tarek’s children Taylor, 11, and Brayden, 6, with his ex-wife Christina Hall.
The “Selling Sunset” star told People, “When we first started dating three years ago, we went into our relationship not planning on having children together. I really love being a bonus mom to Taylor and Brayden. They’re such incredible kids and I love them so much. But as your love grows more and more and you fall deeper in love with someone and you build this life together, I started picturing myself having a child with Tarek. I started thinking I just wanted to create something with the man that I’m in love with.”
The baby comes just a little over a year after Tarek and Heather tied the knot.
