"Bachelorette" star Emily Maynard is pregnant

There's another "Bachelor" baby on the way.

Emily Maynard, who appeared on "The Bachelor" and then as "The Bachelorette," is expecting her first child with husband Tyler Johnson.

Maynard, 28, confirmed her pregnancy Friday to Us Weekly, saying, "We're super excited!"

This will be the first baby for the couple and the second for Maynard, who is already a mom to 9-year-old daughter Ricki. Ricki's father is Ricky Hendrick, Maynard's high school sweetheart and late fiance, who died in a plane crash in 2004.

Her and Johnson's baby news comes after they tied the knot at his family's farm in South Carolina back in June.

Maynard first found fame on season 15 of "The Bachelor" in 2011. She accepted Brad Womack's proposal at the end of the season, but the couple called it quits that same year. Maynard then returned to the ABC dating franchise for season 8 of "The Bachelorette," where she got engaged to contestant Jef Holm. They split in 2012.
