Now, Dillard has revealed she’s having a baby boy.
“I was really excited,” Derick Dillard told People magazine. “As a new dad, to have a firstborn son to be our first child and be the leader of his siblings, it is very special.”
Jill is 23, and her husband, Derick, is 25. They got married on June 21, People reports, sharing their first kiss in front of more than 1,000 family and friends.
“Oh yes, there was some screaming in the room,” says, Jill. “I thought all along we were having a girl. Everyone made their guesses.”
