He’s already the proud father of his eight-month-old son Max and now, season two Married At First Sight star Jono Pitman is adding to his family unit!
On Monday evening, Jono took to Instagram to share the exciting news that he and fiancée Rebecca Pattison are expecting a daughter together in October.
“We can’t wait to welcome a baby girl into our tribe early October 2020 💕 #babypitman#supersperm#twoundertwo#bigbrothermax,” Jono penned, alongside a beautiful snap of brother-to-be Max.
In the snap, Max is sitting next to a hilarious sign, which made a reference to the viral children’s song Baby Shark by Pinkfong.
“Mummy shark due due due due due due in October 2020,” the sign read.
Jono and Bec welcomed their first son Max in July last year.
“And just like that two became three,” the proud new dad wrote at the time.
“Welcome to the world Max Thomas Pitman born 16th July at 3.36am weighing 3820g. Your first breath took ours away and our hearts are so full of love. ❤️❤️❤️”
Jono rose to fame on season two of the Channel Nine dating show after he was set up with Clare Verrall and famously remarked: “That’s not what I ordered,” when he first saw her walking down the aisle.
At the time, this was one of the most scandalous events to rock the then-wholesome dating show, and Jono was quickly cast as the season’s villain. Oh how things have changed!

Their coupling proved toxic and they lasted just three weeks into the experiment, as their pseudo marriage crumbled in front of the nation.
Looking back on his experience, the Melbourne-based reality TV star says he wishes he never met Clare.
“I know this sounds brutal but [the worst thing to come from the show was] meeting Clare. I honestly wish I never met her, that’s the truth,” Jono told Now To Love in 2017.
“If I saw Clare now, I’d turn my back and I’d walk away. I don’t have a single thing to say to her. If she wanted to apologise, I wouldn’t even want to hear it. She probably thinks the same thing about me and that doesn’t faze me in the slightest.
“I was pretty naive about the show, honestly I had no idea about the whole experiment before I even went on,” he reflected of his time on the show.”
