The couple — who met on the 22nd season of The Bachelor and got married in January 2019 — announced their pregnancy news in December after revealing in May 2020 that she suffered a miscarriage. They are expecting their twins in June.
They cheered in a January YouTube video in which they found out the sexes of their twins, a boy and a girl. "I'm so relieved that there's at least one boy in there," Luyendyk Jr. joked at the time. "Oh my gosh, that's so cool."
Burnham said, "We're so lucky, and I'm just really grateful. And now we're having a boy and a girl. We're just so lucky and I don't know why."
