Vanessa Grimaldi’s SHOCKING Mom Confession: What She Never Expected!

Vanessa Grimaldi‘s kid deserves a rose for his toddler era. 

In a unique disclosure, the well-known figure from “Bachelor Nation” offered a peek into her family affairs, revealing that her 2-year-old son Winston, along with his father Joshua Wolfe, has so far managed to steer clear of mischief.

Vanessa shared with Us Weekly during an interview on April 23 that there’s no sign of the “terrible twos” yet in her son. At two and a half, he’s moving towards his third birthday, which could mean we bypassed that phase entirely.

Indeed, the 37-year-old woman, who became a mother to Winston last year following her marriage to Joshua, aged 40 in the previous year, has relished each aspect of her motherhood experience.

In Vanessa’s words, she expressed her deep affection for her husband while also sharing a unique revelation about the love she feels for her son. When she first held him, she realized it was an entirely new kind of love she had never experienced before in her life. Despite this, she acknowledges that her husband remains an exceptional individual, deserving of the title ‘greatest human being in the world.’ She added that her son, at two and a half years old, is able to communicate effectively, reason, and even exhibit wit, traits which she attributes to his father.

Due to this, the former participant of The Bachelor found it difficult to leave her child behind for a series of work engagements in New York. She admitted to crying throughout the entire day prior to their separation.

Vanessa went on saying, “It’s quite significant, yet I find it satisfying. This is me stepping out slightly more, experiencing more of ‘Vanessa life’ away from home.

What makes motherhood so fulfilling, according to Vanessa (who had an engagement with Nick Viall in 2017 during season 21 of “The Bachelor,” but ended the relationship shortly after), is that it has completely transformed her outlook on life.

When the new year arrives, it’s essential to select a word, Vanessa explained. Before I had Winston, ‘being present’ was always my chosen word, but now he has shown me how to embrace presence even more deeply in life. It’s truly a precious gift.

Besides Winston, Vanessa cherishes a unique bond with Joshua as well. Despite parenting duties dominating much of their current lives, she remains thankful for this strong relationship they share.

Fortunately, my spouse and I put a lot of effort into strengthening our bond before Winston came along, which gave us a strong base,” she shared. “It’s true that our relationship has shifted significantly since becoming parents, as it now primarily revolves around our child. However, we make an effort to show affection towards each other in sweet ways.

Observing that Joshua had recently gifted her flowers, a card, and a video, she mentioned, “We strive to arrange date nights when we have a babysitter available, and we make an effort to spend quality time together as a family and as partners to nurture our love.

The former contestant from ‘The Bachelorette’, ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ and ‘The Bachelor’ was given the most cherished rose of all when his fiancée delivered their baby girl, River Rose Viall, on February 2nd.

Expressing a sequence of delightful photos of their little daughter, the pair penned, “Life’s finest moments begin right here and now.

Back in 2024, the contestant from The Bachelor season 20 who triumphed on Bachelor in Paradise’s third installment and later returned for the spinoff in 2017, gave birth to her first child, named Rosie. Her husband was by her side during this joyous occasion. Interestingly, she already has two daughters from a previous marriage – Kinsley and Charlie.

Pre-Thanksgiving in Canada, the former stars of “Bachelor in Paradise” welcomed their newborn son, named Nash Lochland Wendt. He now has an older brother, August, by his side.

Kevin posted on Instagram, “Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving as our family has grown to 4! Let me introduce you to our little one, Nash Lochland Wendt, born October 7. Mom and baby are doing wonderfully and will be coming home today. A heartwarming moment for us was witnessing August’s reaction when he met his new baby brother, Nash. He smiled the entire time and even gave him a sweet kiss!

The pair from Bachelor in Paradise discovered a new kind of paradise through parenthood as they brought their son, Benson Lee Jacobs Kufrin, into the world on September 21, 2023.

Approximately eight months following their engagement at The Bachelor Live On Stage event, the couple joyously welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Tatum Booth Mock, into the world on December 6, 2022, at 6:13 am.

On her 35th birthday, September 29, 2022, the former “Bachelor” contestant welcomed a new addition to her family – a son named Winston, what a precious present!

In an unexpected twist of events, the contestant from Nick Viall’s season shared her birth story, which wasn’t necessarily the most dramatic ever, but certainly was quite eventful. After 90 minutes of labor, she and her husband, who had been married for nine months, welcomed their baby during an emergency C-section on January 18, 2022. “What was life before him?” the woman from Arkansas mused about their 8-pound, 6-ounce son, Gates Zev Gottschalk. “I can’t remember.”

However, she is confident that she and her Bachelor in Paradise partner are not finished expanding their family. “We’d like two or three,” she told Us Weekly. “But Adam has said, you know, we’ll see how I do with two and then go from there.”

Fan-loved couples from “Bachelor in Paradise” welcomed their baby boy Dawson, named after the Titanic character played by Leonardo DiCaprio, in January 2022.

17 months after the winner of “The Bachelor” season 16 welcomed her first child, a son named Joaquin in June 2020, they made room for their early-arriving daughter Paloma at their Thanksgiving table. In other words, has this family expanded? Yes, it has! They now have a baby boy and a newborn girl to celebrate with during Thanksgiving.

In a delightful manner, they introduced their latest acquisition, tipping the scales at 4 pounds and 15 ounces, as their world’s tiniest treasure. On social media, they couldn’t help but express their affection, declaring her the sweetest girl one could ever find. Her smile has a knack for brightening our days and melting this mama’s heart.

On November 20, 2021, the couple reached their final destination, which was August for them, marking the end of a long journey. Their cycles of intrauterine insemination and IVF, one of which led to an ectopic pregnancy, were part of this journey. The Canadian-born firefighter couldn’t help but express his admiration for his fiancee, calling her his hero. He spoke highly of her courage and resilience, particularly during the last two days in the hospital and the past two years of tireless efforts to conceive their perfect child. This beautiful family dream was first discussed back in 2018 on Bachelor in Paradise, she shared on Instagram. However, even in her wildest dreams, she couldn’t have imagined how truly wonderful this journey would turn out to be.

After entering parenthood with the arrival of their daughter Alessi four months following their January 2019 wedding, and welcoming a younger sibling and another child in June 2021, this former racer is prepared for a slowdown.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d put it this way: “We’re absolutely overjoyed with our family expansion! The arrival of our twins, Senna and Lux, has truly completed us. At 40, I understand the clock is ticking, and I want to make the most of fatherhood by being an active dad. Three seems like a perfect number for us.

They mentioned grand schemes, they did on June 8, 2021. The Bachelor season 20’s final rose recipient, along with her nine-pound country singer husband, brought their little one, Dutton Walker Lane, to the ranch.

On October 16, 2022, the couple took another spin at the rodeo, and that’s where their new addition, baby Baker Weston Lane, joined their family.

After not being able to gather a rose during week six of Arie Luyendyk Jr.’s Bachelor season, the health coach eventually cultivated her own small bloom, welcoming daughter Andara Rose Bowles on March 31, 2021, less than a year into her blossoming relationship with a San Diego-based entrepreneur.

Though she confessed on friend Scheana Shay’s podcast that it was terrifying to discover she was pregnant “early in the relationship” and while still married to Chris Randone from Bachelor in Paradise, she “simply felt this was an outstanding opportunity for me to grow, to embrace love, to have confidence in myself, Miles, and our future, and understand that God only gives us what we can manage.

On February 12, 2021, the creator of The Road Les Traveled and her fiancé took their daughter Nora Blanche Kavanagh on a journey, and she has already shown herself to be a born explorer. A short while ago, someone told this Bachelor and Bachelor Winter Games alum that traveling with a baby isn’t a vacation, it’s an adventure – a change of scenery, a temporary relocation of parenting. However, after trips to Hawaii, Miami, New York, and Kavanagh’s homeland Australia, the alum expressed that they wouldn’t give up anything if it means sharing the world with this little girl.

Ever since Reed hopped into the picture back in November 2020, me and the original Bachelor in Paradise lovebirds have been mulling over the idea of expanding our little family to four. It’s not a matter of three’s a crowd – quite the opposite, really!

According to Tolbert, he expressed being “somewhat open” to the idea, but his future spouse’s desire for a baby is more intense and passionate.

The mom of Emmy and Brooks mentioned, “A family of four would be wonderful. They could look out for each other, and there’s an unique charm in the mother-child relationship that I truly appreciate.
