Witney Carson Expecting First Child with Husband Carson McAllister

“Dancing with the Stars” pro Witney Carson has a baby on the way!

On Thursday, Carson announced that she is pregnant with her first child with husband Carson McAllister.

Along with posting a pic of herself holding a pregnancy test and a sonogram while embracing Carson, the 26-year-old wrote on Instagram, “Baby McAllister coming Jan 2021!!!!! We can’t even contain our excitement and joy right now.”

Witney shared on her Instagram Story, “We are so excited for this journey and we’re so excited that you guys get to follow along.”

Two years ago, Witney opened up about her future plans to have a family, saying that she wanted “three or four” children. In a Valentine’s Day vlog, McAllister added, “No more than four. As long as we get one of both genders, I’ll be happy.”

The high school sweethearts tied the knot in 2016. In the same vlog, they revealed their secret to a successful marriage, with McAllister saying, “What’s important to me in a good relationship would be probably service. That shows true love and also builds the love that’s already there.”

Carson pointed out, “And also being able to trust and communicate with one another because we’re not perfect at all and there’s things that, in order to build that good relationship, you always have to be partners — you have to be companions to each other and love and trust one another and communicate how you’re feeling. And making sure that your goals align I think for us is a big one too: what do we want in this life that’s most important to us? And that’s building a great family with good standards and good beliefs.”
