Congratulations are in order! Queer Eye star Tan France and his husband, Rob France, are expecting their second child!
Earlier today, Tan made the exciting announcement on Instagram. "Hard to believe it was two years ago today we announced Ismail was on his way! And today— we couldn’t be prouder to share that he’s going to be a big brother! 🥰 Becoming dads has been our greatest joy, and we are so excited to grow our family with the help of our wonderful surrogate," he wrote.
The couple found out their surrogate was pregnant around Christmas. "We were over the moon," Tan told People magazine. "It was the best feeling ever. I mean, it felt almost as shocking as the first time. I was overjoyed, in tears; I couldn't believe that it had finally happened again. It was just the most incredible feeling."
They'd hoped they could give 21-month-old Ismail a sibling close in age.
"We wanted him to have someone that will be his person that he's tethered to. I'm really close with my siblings, and my husband is really close with his, so we wanted to create a family where [our child] would have more support other than just Rob and I," Tan said.
"We are so excited about Ismail having a sibling, but the most exciting part is that he will have somebody hopefully for the rest of his life that he gets to call his person."
The Next in Fashion host also shared that he and Rob have a wonderful relationship with their surrogate. "The only thing that's different [compared to Ismail's surrogate] is that she's out of state, so we don't get to see her in real life as much, but we see her on FaceTime or Zoom. We text regularly, and so it's been great."
