AceShowbiz - Congratulations are in order for Nick Viall and Natalie Joy. The former star of "The Bachelor" and his fiancee announced that they have welcomed their first child, a baby girl, and shared photos of the newborn via social media.

On Monday, February 5, the 43-year-old former reality TV star and the 25-year-old surgical technologist released a series of pictures highlighting their newborn daughter in a joint post via Instagram. The two parents even didn't try to keep the baby's face under tight wraps by revealing it to Instagram users.

One of the snaps captured Nick building a close connection with his daughter. He was photographed having the infant comfortably sleeping on his bare chest. The infant's body was kept warm with a white blanket as well as a pink-and-blue striped-beanie.

In the same post, Nick and Natalie also treated social media users to a photo of their baby girl getting used to a car seat. The snap showed the newborn, who looked adorable in a stylish light pink hat and matching top, sleeping while sitting on a car seat.

Along with the pictures, the engaged couple offered more details of their first child, including her full name and born date. In the caption of the post, they wrote, "River Rose Viall 2-2-2024." They went on to spill, "Named after Natalies great grandmother and niece…the best part of life starts now," adding swan, bird, cloud and heart emojis.

The happy news came a few months after Nick and Natalie broke the news of her pregnancy. On August 7, 2023, the pair announced that they are expecting their first child together via Instagram. Along with pictures from a maternity photoshoot and a sonogram photo, they penned, "Our biggest dream came true [white heart emoji] (sic)."

Natalie got a bun in the oven a few years after she started a romantic relationship with Nick. The couple, who has an 18-year-old gap, began their love journey after she slid into his Instagram Direct Message back in 2020. The two got engaged in January 2023 after dating for three years.
