Her bundle of joy is due in 2025!

Mere days after confirming that she was expecting her first child, Domenica Calarco confirmed that she would be raising her baby by herself after splitting from her boyfriend Jarod Bogunovich.

On March 16, Domenica took to Instagram to confirm that sad news, revealing that she felt “truly empowered” by her decision “to step into motherhood” on her own terms.

“I am incredibly excited about this next chapter in my life. 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.”

She then added that she was “grateful to have the support of the father in a co-parenting capacity.”

“There is so much power in making the best decision for yourself and your child,” she concluded.

Jarod himself shared a statement of his own on social media shortly after, writing that he was “committed to co-parenting” and ensuring his child’s wellbeing was “always at the forefront.”

“As most of you already know, Dom and I are officially separated. Moving forward my main priority is our child and stepping into the role of a father with as much love and support as I can offer.”

Taking to Instagram on March 12, the former reality star shared her exciting pregnancy news for the first time via a heartfelt complication shared to Instagram.

In the caption, she admitted taking time away from social media for this special reason: “Been a little MIA working on my greatest project yet…..Baby 🐣 due September 2025 🤍”

The behind-the-scenes video started with the former Married at First Sight bride discovering she was pregnant with her positive pregnancy test.

She also provided a glimpse of her sonogram and the recorded reactions of her family and friends to finding out her news.

In an Instagram story posted on the same night as her official announcement, Domenica revealed that she was 14 weeks into her pregnancy.

While it is happy news, it hasn’t been smooth sailing for the former MAFS bride, who told followers she had already experienced sickness in her first trimester and thyroid issues.

Is Domenica Calarco in a relationship?

In September 2024, the podcast host revealed she was in a relationship with Jarod Bogunovich, posting a photo on Instagram that hinted at the new romance.

Speaking to 9 Entertainment at the time, she said she was the “happiest” she’d ever been.

However, fans were quick to speculate that the pair had ended their relationship after Jarod was not featured in Domenica’s pregnancy announcement.

Sadly just days later, Domenica confirmed there was truth to the rumours and that she would be a “solo parent.”

What happened with Domenica from MAFS?

Following her time on the reality show, she hosted the Sit With Us podcast with fellow bride Ella Ding.

Despite its success, the podcast ended in August 2024, following backlash from listeners after inviting on controversial guests. They shared a statement on the podcast’s private Facebook page, explaining ending the podcast was a joint decision.

Domenica then embarked on her first solo podcasting venture with her empowering show Mad Woman, which speaks about “highs, lows, and everything in between.” Away from podcasting, she provides updates about renovations to her barn house through her Instagram account @th3.bluehouse.

In 2023, she also returned to reality TV with a stint on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
