Welcome to the world Baby Pitman!
Married At First Sight season two groom Jono Pitman and his partner Rebecca Pattison have announced the arrival of their new baby boy. The proud new parents took to Instagram on Wednesday to share their happy news.
In the caption accompanying a sweet photo of his new son sleeping peacefully, the former reality star revealed all the details of the birth, including the name.
“And just like that two became three!” the proud new dad wrote.
“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. ❤️❤️❤️”
Bec shared the same caption as her partner but revealed another snap of little Max fast asleep dressed in an adorable blue hat with a matching wool blue blanket covering him.
She also revealed where she gave birth and the doctor who helped to deliver Max by tagging the St John of God Berwick Hospital and Dr Mei Chah who reposted the picture on her own Instagram stories.
“This makes my ungodly hour hob, worth waking up for,” she penned. “Max is just perfect @becpattison @jonopitman19.”
The couple announced that they were expecting a baby via an Instagram post that featured a selfie of the excited couple and an ultrasound pic of their unborn baby.
“New Year, exciting new adventures…We’re having a baby!!” the former MAFS groom penned.
“Baby Pitman due July 2019 and we are over the moon. 💕We can’t wait to meet our little boy!”
Jono then finished the post with a series of hashtags, “#babypitman#itsaboy#igotwhatiordered#whenyouknowyouknow#nomuckingaround”
Jono, who rose to fame on season two of the dating experiment after he was set up with Clare Verrall, previously opened up to Now To Love about his MAFS bride and how the show’s editing often blew things out of proportion.
“I wasn’t angry at her and I wasn’t angry at the situation. I didn’t appreciate the way the cameras or the producers treated me,” he revealed.
“She was the one looking for fame, I wasn’t. I was genuinely looking to find love. But I realise now I wasn’t ready for it and even if I was, it wouldn’t have been with her.”
