Rilah Ferrer is preparing to become a mother of two this year as the former Unexpected star revealed this week that she and her boyfriend are expecting their first child together.
“Blessing to the new year!” Eddie captioned the photo on his Instagram Story. “My greatest gift.”
As ‘Unexpected’ viewers may remember, Rilah is already a mom to daughter Malayah, whom she welcomed with then-boyfriend Anthony Vanelli on Season 3 of the TLC series. In early 2020, Rilah announced on Twitter that she would not be returning to ‘Unexpected’ for Season 4, citing the show’s editing as a main factor.
While Rilah and Anthony only appeared on one season of ‘Unexpected,’ fans likely remember Anthony for the many run-ins with the law he’s had following his stint on the reality series, most notably the 2023 stabbing of his mom’s boyfriend, for which Anthony was resentenced in November.
Just last month, Rilah’s legally challenged baby daddy landed behind bars again, this time for a probation violation after failing to remain enrolled (and successfully completing) a required residential treatment program.
While Rilah has not commented on Anthony’s latest legal issues, she previously sounded off on social media after his initial arrest for the 2023 stabbing, telling fans that she hadn’t allowed Anthony to be around their daughter “in years.”
Rilah has yet to reveal the due date for her second child.
