In a raw and vulnerable moment that’s sure to resonate with new parents everywhere, Love Is Blind UK’s Bobby and Jasmine Johnson are opening up about the emotional rollercoaster of expecting their first child — and the truth isn’t wrapped in pretty bows or perfect Instagram posts.
“We’re Scared — And That’s the Honest Truth”
As Jasmine nears her due date, the couple sat down for a candid interview where both confessed they’re battling more anxiety than excitement. “There’s this huge pressure to look like we’ve got everything figured out,” Jasmine admitted. “But behind closed doors? We’re scared. We argue more. We’re not sleeping. And sometimes, I just cry for no reason.”
Bobby echoed the same fears. “I thought I’d feel ready by now,” he said quietly. “But instead I’m questioning if I’ll be good enough, if I’ll provide enough… if I’ll know what to do the moment that baby cries.”
Sleepless Nights and Silent Worries
The two revealed that their once easygoing chemistry has been tested by the realities of impending parenthood — from budgeting breakdowns to panic over hospital bags and birth plans. “I’ve had nights where I stayed awake just watching her breathe,” Bobby shared. “She’s carrying our baby, and I feel useless.”
Jasmine added, “People keep saying ‘you’re glowing,’ but honestly? It’s the tears and the stress. I’m terrified — not of the birth, but of who we’ll become after.”
Love Can Be Blind — But Parenthood Isn’t
The couple rose to fame for taking a leap of faith in the pods, but Jasmine admitted this next leap feels even scarier. “Falling in love was the easy part. Becoming a family? That’s where real trust is tested. And sometimes, I don’t think either of us feels ready.”
But despite the fear, one thing is certain: they’re facing it together. “We’re not perfect. We’re not even sure what we’re doing,” Bobby said. “But we’re choosing to show up. Every single day. For each other, and for our baby.”
