DWTS pros Val Chmerkovskiy and Jenna Johnson’s dreams have finally become a reality as they welcome their first child. The couple’s joy has known no bounds ever since they became first-time parents on January 10, 2023.
Val Chmerkovskiy And Jenna Johnson’s Journey To Parenthood
The DWTS couple has been together in love since 2015, and the duo finally tied the knot in 2019. Ever since they got married, it has been challenging as the couple struggled through infertility.
In 2020, the So You Think You Can Dance alum told Us Weekly that her husband wanted a baby so badly, but it was not yielding positive results. After several trials, the ABC personalities gave up on conception for about six months trying to heal mentally.
Unknowingly to Jenna Johnson, she was already carrying her first child with Val Chmerkovskiy. Their dream of becoming a parent finally came through this year as they added a cute little one to the family.
The happy father took to Instagram to announce the arrival of their baby in a sweet post. The photo showed him kissing his wife’s belly. Chmerkovskiy wrote, “Baby Chmerkovskiy coming this January! We can’t wait to meet our precious angel”.
Other Stars Also Took Time To Celebrate The Couple
DWTS co-star Sharna Burgess shared in the family’s joy as she made a post to celebrate the couple. Burgess wrote, “Girl….get ready to meet the love of your life. You are going to be amazing and also you look stunning.” Stars like Julianne Hough also gushed at the news. She revealed that she is very happy for the couple.
More so, Johnson’s sister-in-law, Peta Murgatroyd couldn’t hide her happiness. Murgatroyd commented that she is so emotional and affirmed her love for her sister-in-law. Murgatroyd said that Johnson will no doubt be the best mother to her newborn.
That same day, the 36-year-old father posted an ultrasound photo of their baby saying that his family is expanding. He also stated that this bundle of joy is the beginning of everything.
