Domenica Calarco, who previously starred on Married at First Sight Australia, has announced that she is pregnant with her first child.
The 31-year-old revealed the news in an emotional Instagram video alongside the caption:
“Been a little MIA working on my greatest project yet…..Baby 🐣 due September 2025 🤍.”
Clips from the video showed a compilation of moments from her pregnancy so far, from finding out she was expecting and attending her first appointments to telling her friends and family the exciting news.
Fellow MAFS co-stars flooded the comment section, including Jessica Power, who wrote, “Omg congratulations beautiful.”
“Congrats Dom,” shared Ollie Skelton, as Tori Adams also commented, “Congratulations!”
The reality TV star and podcast host took to her Instagram stories to share more photos from her journey, revealing to fans that following the 5 week mark her pregnancy was complicated by “sickness.”
“I have a lot to fill you guys in on,” she added. “I haven’t been well for weeks and turns out I had a pretty serious issue with my thyroid which left me bed ridden until we finally got it sorted recently!”
At this stage, Domenica’s baby news did not mention the baby’s father. However, the following week, Dom announced that she and partner Jarod Bogunovich had split.
“I am incredibly excited about this next chapter in my life and feel truly empowered by my decision to step into motherhood on my own terms. While I will be welcoming this baby as a solo parent, I am grateful to have the support of the father in a co-parenting capacity,” she wrote.
“This journey is one that I embrace wholeheartedly, with all its highs and lows, and I am beyond proud to be stepping into this role with strength, love, and a deep sense of purpose. I also want to acknowledge and support others who choose to embark on parenthood alone – there is so much power in making the best decision for yourself and your child.”
Prior to announcing her pregnancy, Dom revealed in October 2024 that she would be moving out of Sydney and had purchased a property.
“This city chick is moving back home,” she told fans via Instagram at the time. “I moved out of home at 24, and have spent the last 7 years living in and around Sydney CBD. It’s time for a country change, heading back to my roots. I’m renovating a barn house to move into as we speak.”
