Candiace Dillard Bassett said goodbye to the adventures of the Real Housewives of Potomac earlier this year. She had had enough of the constant drama with the cast and the bad narrative regarding her husband, Chris Bassett. But she isn’t about to rest on her laurels as she announced she was expecting her first child shortly after her exit.
Candiace Dillard Bassett announces her pregnancy
In April 2024, Candiace announced her pregnancy during an interview with Entertainment Tonight. Just weeks after her Bravo departure, Candiace was ready to share that she would be embracing motherhood. During the interview, she revealed that she was 13 weeks along and still very early on in her journey. Candiace is already a stepmother to Chris’s three children, but this will be their first child together. She excitedly told the outlet, “It’s been weird, but also really wonderful, I think, to keep it kind of to ourselves to this point.”
Candiace added, “Our immediate family knows, my mom — I told my mom on her birthday in February — my dad knows, Chris’ parents know, my siblings know, and that is my core, best friend group, but outside of that, it’s just been, like, kind of quietly just growing a bun.” As fans know, the couple has been going through the IVF process. The RHOP star chronicled some of her fertility sessions as she froze her embryos. Candiace shared she got “the itch” noting “I always wondered, like, how would I know when I was ready? And I always felt like a part of my anxiety was that I wasn’t sure that I would know, and when I knew, it was undeniable.”
Candiace Dillard Bassett announces she is having a boy
Like most new parents, Chris and Candiace decided to do a creative gender reveal. The Miss United States alum and private chef did a simple blindfold paint reveal that showed they would welcome a bouncing baby boy. The couple sat on the kitchen floor of their home, and they both wore white button-down shirts. After the blindfolds had been pulled down, they finger-painted on the blank canvas, eventually revealing blue paint. Candiace captioned her video by writing, “You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.” -2 Timothy 2:1.”
While speaking to Us Weekly, Candiace said, “I started to feel a masculine energy. I just couldn’t deny the feeling of a sweet little boy growing inside of me.” The boys will outnumber Candiace as, along with the newborn, she will have Chris and his two sons. However, the beauty queen doesn’t seem to be bothered as she told the outlet, “It’s the most magical and indescribable experience. I think I’m actually going to miss it, but I also can’t wait to meet him and stare at him all day!”
When is Candiace Dillard Bassett’s baby due?
In August, Candiace was thrown a lavish baby shower that would make any expectant mother burst into tears. But she didn’t have just one party, she had two! The first baby shower was exquisite, and it felt like you had entered a French fairytale. Candiace stunned in a skin-tight white dress with feathers around the neckline. There was a blue cake that was decorated like the Hall of Mirrors in Paris. Every detail was absolutely stunning. The second party was a surprise and thrown by Candiace’s mother. The mother-to-be was surrounded by her best friends as the family sat down for a nice afternoon lunch.
Candiace wrote, “When you’re ripping and running all over the place, it can be easy to forget how blessed you are. I’m so grateful for my friends, my day ones!” Currently, Candiace is all about her cravings. The former Real Housewives of Potomac star shared that “Olive Garden spaghetti with meat sauce, Apple Jacks cereal, and watermelon have been the top contenders. I’ve also had a few stretches where all I wanted was smash burgers … that was a great time.” The baby is due any day as she hinted, “I’m so happy to have a fall baby.”
