In a tender and heartfelt confession that’s bound to tug at fans’ hearts, Dancing with the Stars pros Jenna Johnson and Val Chmerkovskiy are opening up about their dreams of expanding their family — and this time, they’re hoping for a baby girl.
During a recent interview, Jenna didn’t hold back when revealing the intimate conversations she and Val have been having behind closed doors — and the surprisingly sweet reason why they’re hoping to welcome another child within the next two years.
“He Talks About His Baby Sister All the Time”
“Our son has started asking about a sister,” Jenna shared. “He’ll point to babies and say, ‘That’s my baby sister.’ It’s the most beautiful thing — and honestly, it makes me emotional every time.”
Jenna and Val welcomed their son Rome in early 2023, and the couple has fully embraced the rollercoaster of first-time parenthood. But now, with Rome blossoming into a curious and affectionate toddler, the couple is feeling the pull to grow their family again.
A Future Filled with Love — and a Little Pink
“We’re planning for a baby girl sometime in the next two years,” Jenna admitted. “We’ve talked about it a lot. It just feels like the right time — not immediately, but soon.”
Val echoed the sentiment, adding that their conversations have shifted from if to when. “Rome has changed our lives in the most profound way,” he said. “But we’ve always envisioned having more than one. And seeing how gentle and loving he already is… we know he’ll be the best big brother.”
He Promised to Protect Her
According to Jenna, Rome’s desire for a sibling isn’t just talk — it’s a promise. “He told us he’d protect her, share his toys, and teach her to dance,” she said, laughing through tears. “It’s like he already knows her.”
Though the couple insists they’re not putting pressure on themselves or rushing the timeline, their dream is crystal clear. They want their son to have the joy of a sibling — and they’re hoping it’s a little girl with her daddy’s rhythm and her mommy’s heart.
No Timeline, Just Hope
“We’re not controlling the outcome,” Jenna said. “But we’re hopeful. We’re ready for more love, more chaos, more everything.”
If love, honesty, and a sweet little boy’s wish have anything to do with it, a baby girl may be dancing into their lives sooner than anyone expects.
