Bekah Martinez has always been open to expanding her family
In September 2018, Bekah announced her first pregnancy just a few months after she began dating Leonard. She revealed that she found out she was pregnant only three months after they started dating.
“It wasn’t planned and at first the news came as an utter shock to the couple. I was in disbelief and thought, ‘Is this really happening?’ I immediately called Grayston and then went across the street to the Dollar Tree and bought two more pregnancy tests. They, of course, were both positive.”
Leonard was initially unsure about whether he was ready to be a father, while Martinez had always dreamed of it. Martinez explained,
“It’s the one thing that I’ve known with certainty for so long. I’ve gone back and forth on the idea of marriage and relationships, but I’ve always felt sure that I want to be a mom.”
Blissfully, they welcomed their first child a daughter in February 2019. In an interview with US Weekly, the TV Personality shared her desire to expand her family, weighed in,
“I would be fine with five or six, Maybe just five. But for now, we want to keep it just [Ruth] for a couple of years. We can travel with her really easily, so we want to stick with her and then go for the rest.”
Nine months after the birth of Ruth, they announced their second pregnancy. In June 2020, they welcomed their second child or first son Franklin.
Before the arrival of their third child, Martinez revealed her plans to become a foster parent. In August 2022, she shared an Instagram story, writing,
“I haven’t updated y’all but I [was] sworn in for CASA [Court-Appointed Special Advocate] during my Oregon trip and I’m in the process of getting paired with a foster youth! Waiting on [an] official court appointment order, and in the meantime I have to look over the child’s documents and history with DCFS [Department of Children and Family Services]. [N]ot a light task.”
