Brody Jenner and his pregnant girlfriend, Tia Blanco, have announced their engagement through a heartwarming Instagram video on Sunday, June 18.
Jenner and Blanco, aged 26, stood together in front of their close ones in a gathering before Jenner addressed them. Expressing gratitude, Jenner spoke, "I am truly grateful to all of you for being here. Your presence means a lot to me. I love each and every one of you." With excitement in his voice, Jenner added, "But there is one more thing."
As Blanco looked on, Jenner gracefully dropped down on one knee and revealed a diamond ring from his pocket. Blanco, radiantly dressed in a pink babydoll dress and a sparkling tiara, joyfully exclaimed "yes" before embracing her beloved partner in a heartfelt hug.
Thompson, 73, who has sons Brody and Brandon, 42, with ex Caitlyn Jenner, expressed her joy for the couple on Instagram. She described their happy news as the perfect ending to a beautiful love story and wished them heartfelt congratulations, expressing her immense love for them both.
Brody's half-sisters, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner, also showed their support by liking the post. Prior to his relationship with Blanco, Brody was married to Kaitlynn Carter from 2018 to 2019. The couple was first rumored to be dating in April 2022 and officially confirmed their romance a month later. They even shared a heartwarming Instagram photo together, featuring Brody's beloved dog.
Amid their relationship, Brody and the alum from Ultimate Surfer received the joyful news earlier this year that they are soon to become parents.
"To kick off this new year, we want to extend our heartfelt wishes of good health, happiness, and an overflow of love to all our friends, family, and followers," they captioned a collaborative Instagram video in January. The video showcased Blanco undergoing a sonogram. "We are deeply grateful for your support and affection. We are thrilled to announce the arrival of a new life in the coming year."
The couple announced several weeks later that they are expecting a baby girl, adding to Thompson's grandchild count of four and Caitlyn's count of 21. Thompson is already a grandparent to three children from his son Brandon. Caitlyn, on the other hand, is a loving grandparent to Cassandra Jenner, Burt Jenner, and Kylie's children. Additionally, Caitlyn's former stepchildren, Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Rob Kardashian, and Kourtney Kardashian, also have multiple children that contribute to the overall grandchild count.
