Days after sharing her pregnancy news with the world, Jessie revealed that Eric was shocked by the development. “[Eric] actually didn't believe me. He thought I was joking with him, but I would never joke about something like this,” she told fans during an Instagram Story Q&A. “He thought literally [my then-pregnant sister] Sydney was peeing on a stick and we were messing around with him.”
Once Jessie assured Eric she wasn't joking, he got excited about their growing brood. “I thought, 'I'm not kidding. This is real,” she said. “It was a shock for a while, but as soon as he knew it was real, I mean, you know him. … We love kids, so we say, 'Yes!'”
