Jade Roper is bidding farewell to the baby years, as she recently shared that she and husband Tanner Tolbert are finished having children. The Bachelor in Paradise alum, 37, revealed the news during an Instagram “Ask Me Anything” session, responding to a fan’s question about expanding their family. “I think we are done,” Roper wrote. “Which is very bittersweet. I’m that person that I guess I don’t think I’ll ever feel that feeling of ‘our family is complete.’”

Roper and Tolbert, both 37, have been fan favorites in the Bachelor franchise since meeting and falling in love on season 2 of Bachelor in Paradise in 2015. Their journey captured the hearts of viewers as they navigated dating within the spotlight and eventually married in a televised wedding special in 2016. Since then, they have built a family together, welcoming three children: Emmy, 7, Brooks, 5, and Reed, 4.

The couple’s family journey has included both joyful and challenging moments. In August 2023, Roper experienced a “missed miscarriage” at five months pregnant, a heartbreaking loss she openly discussed with her followers. Her transparency brought attention to the reality of pregnancy loss, as she shared her feelings with her community, who offered their love and support.

Roper’s bittersweet feelings about closing this chapter reflect her deep love for motherhood. While she’s ready to move on from diapers, bottles, and sleepless nights, she admits she may never feel her family is “complete.” Known for her candid discussions about parenting and family life, Roper has continued to engage her fans with authentic reflections on the joys and challenges of raising young children.

As Roper and Tolbert transition out of the baby years, fans admire their commitment to family and the openness they bring to their lives both on and off social media. Their journey together continues to be an inspiring story for followers of the Bachelor franchise, showing how two people who met on reality TV have built a loving family and tackled the ups and downs of life together.
