Love is Blind UK stars announce pregnancy news with rap song
Netflix stars Jasmine and Bobby Johnson have announced they are expecting their first child.
Last year the couple met on the first UK season of the dating show Love is Blind, where they got engaged before even meeting in person.
Bobby, 33, was a luxury shopping guide from Staffordshire, while Jasmine, 29, was a mental health nurse living in London.
In the final episode, the couple were married, later sharing on the reunion that he’d moved to London, and they were still together.
A year on, they’ve now shared the exciting news they are about to become parents.

Writing a message to their unborn child, they wrote: ‘I’ve pictured your tiny face a thousand times.
‘I’ve dreamt of this moment long before I knew how good life could get. Then I met your dad and the rest was written in love 🤍
‘Baby Johnson Coming Winter 2025!!’
They also shared a video that showed them embracing while photos taken throughout their relationship were shown on a screen.
It began with a sit-down interview with the couple, who were both wearing white shirts while Jasmine showed off her baby bump, speaking about how they might want to raise their future child.
‘I ideally want to raise children in a household where our foundation is on 100,’ she said.
The video then zoomed out and showed Bobby performing a rap, which began: ‘I’m happy that you’re here with me, Because you be beautiful and that be clear to see, I can feel the love each time you’re near to me.

‘They said we might not make it here, After such a crazy year, But we just took a leap of faith and dived in with no safety gear. I love it when you’re next to me, Connecting intellectually, I was lost but now I’m found, well ever since you rescued me. We sit and talk on rainy days, Just debating baby names, But our minds keep changing day to day they never stay the same.
‘I’m looking at your baby bump… I guess we’ll have to wait until the day you come, To know if your our daughter or our baby son. I’ll be happy either way! Tears of joy I wipe away, Ever since i found out I can’t sleep and I’ve been wide awake.’
The rap concluded with the lines: ‘I hope I’ll be a better dad, And give you what we never had!. Turn the pain to purpose, You don’t have to hurt the way we have!’
The couple were quickly met with messages of support from family, friends and fans, as well as their former Love is Blind co-stars.
‘So happy for you guys,’ Sabrina commented.
‘Yaaaay,’ Maria shared.
Meanwhile the official Netflix account shared a series of love heart face emojis.

During Love is Blind, Bobby said that ‘from the start Jasmine was the girl for me’.
After rapping a poem sharing his feelings for her, Bobby proposed.
Earlier this year they told Grazia UK they’d been struggling to conceive.
‘In the beginning, we were very naive,’ she said. ‘I thought I was going to get pregnant as soon as we had sex. Obviously, that’s not the case.’

Despite being one of two couples to make it after the show, it wasn’t all smooth sailing for the pair though, with Jasmine less than impressed when discovering the music video for Bobby’s old song Body of a Dancer, which saw him rap alongside two bikini-clad women.
They also faced the disapproval of her mum, who had concerns about their relationship and said she wanted to be told about any and every argument they had.
‘I respect my mum. I respect her opinion. As much as I love her, ultimately it’s my decision to make and I’m really happy,’ Jasmine later shared.
Meanwhile her mum came around and said at their wedding: ‘There were worries but they look so happy together. My God, I can’t stop crying.’
Love is Blind is streaming on Netflix.
