The reality star shared on Monday a photo of three pregnancy tests that turned out positive. On the caption she posted a series of emojis including an angel, a baby, a family and a baby bottle next to the hashtag #blessed.

Hochstein's rep confirmed the news to Us Weekly, adding that after years of struggle the family is expecting via surrogate.

"It did not feel real, almost unbelievable!" the, 32-year-old reality star said of the news, adding, "We felt that we tried almost every option available to us except surrogacy. Adoption was a consideration if this didn't work."

Hochstein's bundle on Joy is due on Aug. 1, but the couple has been warned that the baby might come sooner. While they have yet to learn the baby's gender, the couple is already picking out names.

"We are thinking he or she should have a name beginning with the letter L so we would all have the same initials," she gushed to Us. "How cute is that?!"

The Hochsteins married in 2009 and began documenting their lives in the Bravo series in 2012.
