The “Love Is Blind” family is growing.
Shaina Hurley and husband Christos Lardakis are expecting their first child together.
“We feel so thankful and grateful that we have been given such a blessing. Our hearts are full,” the reality star told People Tuesday.
“We cannot wait to start this next journey of parenthood together and to meet this little soul.”
Hurley, 33, rose to fame after appearing in the second season of Netflix’s “Love Is Blind,” which aired in 2022 after being filmed the prior year.
She initially connected with fellow contestant Shayne Jansen in the pods, before getting engaged to Kyle Abrams sight unseen.
However, Hurley broke off their engagement shortly after meeting face-to-face.
The Chicago-based hairstylist then revealed that she had moved on from the men in the pod.
“I’m actually in a relationship,” she told Nick Viall on the ”The Viall Files” podcast in March 2022.
“It’s pretty serious,” she added. “He’s been great throughout the whole situation. I’m happy.”
She and Lardakis had been dating for about a year before getting engaged — which happened just one week after the podcast episode aired.
“She’s been dating Christos for almost a year and this is the happiest I’ve ever seen her,” a source told People at the time.
“He has stood by her side through all of the ‘Love Is Blind’ drama and has been her steady in the storm,” they added.
“She’s found a man who loves her and understands her … She deserves the very best.”
On July 3, they said “I do” for the first time in a low-key courthouse ceremony before exchanging vows in front of family and friends in Vouliagmeni, Greece.
“I have found the one whom my soul loves,” she captioned an Instagram post following the dreamy European nuptials last summer.
In a separate post, Hurley added, “Thank you to all my loved ones who came to celebrate. I feel so loved and adored. I love you all so much and I am so grateful to have such strong amazing women in my life!!!!”
