In March, Nathan and Esther announced they were expecting their second baby together. "We’re doubling the cuteness! Baby #2 coming Fall, 2024!🤍," they wrote in the caption of a carousel of photos, taken by Nathan's brother Lawson and his wife Tiffany.
The carousel of photos featured Nathan and Esther posing with their daughter Kenna Joy and an ultrasound image on a beach. Kenna wore a gingham pink and white dress that matched her mom's pink one in the photos.
Her father held her in his arms in a photo as she looked down at the ultrasound image. Her parents stood on either side of her, kissing both her cheeks as they showed off the ultrasound image in another snapshot.
Nathan is the fifth child of Gil and Kelly Bates. The Bates family was followed for eight seasons on the TLC show Bringing Up Bates from 2015 to 2021.
Esther and Nathan married in October 2021 after announcing their engagement that same year. They announced Esther's first pregnancy in May 2022 on Instagram and welcomed their daughter later that fall.
