Congrats to Kristen Doute!

The “Valley” star gave birth to her and fiancé Luke Broderick’s rainbow baby on Wednesday after suffering a miscarriage in 2023.

“She’s here, and we still can’t believe it. Luke is even hotter as a dad, and I just feel so lucky,” Doute told Us Weekly on Friday.

“And even though I haven’t slept or showered in two days, seeing our daughter and finally being able to hold her makes it all worth it. We’re completely overwhelmed with love and so grateful for her— our lives are already changed completely.”

The happy couple welcomed a baby girl, whom they’ve named Kaia Lily. The new parents revealed that their inspiration for their daughter’s name — which means “the sea” in Hawaiian — comes from their appreciation for the Aloha state, which is where they got engaged.

Doute, 42, revealed her pregnancy to her Instagram followers in November 2024.

“so thankful,” she captioned her baby bump debut, acknowledging the “fear that [came] with the good news … after experiencing a loss.”

The “Vanderpump Rules” alum explained, “Every week, and every ultrasound, lifted that weight little by little. when i saw the baby move for the first time, i finally felt like i was allowed to be excited. i am forever grateful.”

The following month, Doute and Broderick announced the sex of their upcoming arrival with the help of a pink smoke cannon.

“Luke and I are so thrilled,” she gushed to People in December 2024 of the “unexpected” news after being “convinced” they had a baby boy on the way.

The former SUR waitress and the real estate agent have been together since 2022.

By March 2024, Doute was “actively trying” to start a family with her partner.

“Watching all of my friends over the past few years get married, have babies and grow their families, [I started thinking], ‘S–t, I am the oldest girl in this group. When is my time?” she said in a confessional.

The episode aired four months after the Bravolebrity opened up about her “terrifying” miscarriage at six weeks on the couple’s “Balancing Act” podcast.

She noted that she had yet to undergo in vitro fertilization or freeze her eggs, instead relying on “God’s plan” to conceive again.

Broderick promised to be Doute’s “rock” at the time and help her “get over these sad times and get back to more happy times.”

When he proposed to the reality TV star on a boat in September 2024, the bride-to-be wrote via Instagram that she was “wrapped around [his] finger.”

She gushed, “out of the all the fish in the sea, you chose me.”
