Arie Luyendyk Shares Family’s Joy After Baby Livvy’s Birth

Bachelor alums Arie Luyendyk Jr. and Lauren Burnham have welcomed another baby, revealing her name and other details. Fans already anticipated a girl since a gender reveal occurred back in March.

The New Baby

The couple’s fourth child, a daughter named Livvy Rowe, was born on September 18. Her arrival is something of a modern miracle. After the birth of their twins, Senna and Lux, 4, Arie had a vasectomy, which he later successfully reversed.

On Tuesday night, the parents shared a special moment on Instagram: introducing their older children, Alessi, 6, and the twins, Lux and Senna, to their new baby sister. An adorable reel captured the children’s pure delight upon meeting Livvy.

In the caption, Arie, who tied the knot with Lauren in 2019, wrote, “Their reactions are just the sweetest. You’re in good hands, Livvy.”

ABC Fans React

In the comments section, many fans adored the children’s sweet faces as they met their new sibling for the first time. One of them wrote, “Were any of them dark-haired when they were born?? They are all blond, then comes in this adorable brunette!!!”

In the replies, Lauren told the ABC fans, “Nope! She’s the only one.”

Here are a few more reactions taken from the discussion area: 

• @ariejr so not only is she born on your birthday, but she also has your hair color!
• It’s so cute how Lux is the first one to touch her the first one to grab her to hold her and has a big smile on his face! I think he’s really excited to be a big brother to a little sister!!
  He’s gonna protect her as they grow up ! She’s a beautiful baby with dark hair. and I love her name.
• Oh my goodness!! What an absolutely beautiful family you have created!! Congratulations on the arrival of Livvy!!!
  I love everyone’s reactions! But Lux takes the cake with that smile! So proud to be the big brother!

The Kids Nearly Didn’t Happen

If you watched Season 22 of The Bachelor, you might remember that Arie was considered a villain by the end. While it’s more common now for leads to switch their final choice, it was a major scandal in 2017.

Lauren’s four children almost weren’t ever born, as Arie initially proposed to Becca Kufrin. He later changed his mind, and their story has been a happy-ever-after since. Becca, meanwhile, went on to become the Bachelorette in season 14. She became engaged to Garrett Yrigoyen, but they split in 2020. She is now raising a child with Thomas Jacobs, whom she met on Bachelor in Paradise.
