One month later, they hosted a gender reveal party, where they learned they’ll soon be parents to daughter.

Doute became pregnant after undergoing IUI (intrauterine insemination) after previously suffering from a miscarriage in 2023.

Doute’s stunning maternity pH๏τoshoot on Tuesday earned rave reviews from her 1million Instagram followers.

The Valley star racked up thousands of likes and comments, with many praising the ‘gorgeous’ mom-to-be.

‘Gorgeous! Can’t believe you’re already half way!,’ one follower penned. Another chimed in, ‘You are the prettiest preggo mama!!! ❤️ This color on you omg!! OBSESSED! This, is the right shade of green.’

Last year, Doute got candid about her journey with starting a family, revealing she and her soon-to-be husband had consulted with a fertility expert over the summer for ‘a little help.’

‘After our pregnancy loss last year, we decided to start trying in early 2024,’ she told PEOPLE at the time. ‘I knew my age could be a factor in conceiving, so Luke and I discussed going for an extra push, a little help.’

‘In late summer, we decided to meet with a fertility specialist to learn about our options and what could be the next step if we decided to go that route,’ she added. 

‘The next month was a whirlwind — getting educated on fertility, and eventually hormone sH๏τs and preparing my body for IUI (intrauterine insemination).’

The pair later explained that with the aid of Dr. Carolyn Alexander from the Southern California Reproductive Center, their dreams came true.

After following through with the special procedure, she became pregnant just weeks later.

‘The two weeks following the IUI procedure felt like years. To get a correct outcome on a pregnancy test, 2 weeks time had to pᴀss and I had to wait it out but in my heart I knew it had worked,’ she shared.

‘I tested one day early and got the big PREGNANT result staring back at me,’ she said.

‘I was relieved, overwhelmed, happy, excited and nervous. The second I told Luke, he wasn’t surprised, but was SO happy that IUI worked the first time (we were prepared that it may not). He was joyful and beyond excited, to say the least.’

The pair got engaged, after dating for two years, during a lavish Hawaiian getaway back in September of 2024 that saw Broderick pop the question on a yacht in Maui. 

Kristen was previously a regular on the Bravo reality show Vanderpump Rules from seasons one through eight before being fired from the show in June 2020 over ‘racist comments.’ 

She nows stars with fellow Vanderpump Rules alums Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor on the VPR spin-off The Valley, which will premiere its second season in 2025.
