Mormon Reality Star Jen Affleck Gives Birth to Third Child: Unmedicated Labor and Family Drama!
SCANDAL!
Jen Affleck, the 26-year-old star of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, has given birth to her third child with husband Zac Affleck, and we have all the juicy details!
The couple welcomed their newborn daughter, Penelope, on Wednesday, and Jen took to Instagram to share the exciting news. But what's even more surprising is that she gave birth unmedicated - talk about a labor of love!
In an exclusive interview with The Scholarly Note.com (TSN), Jen revealed that this experience was "the most painful but empowering experience of my life." And we're not surprised, considering she went into labor while getting a manicure at a nail salon! Yes, you read that right - she started having contractions while trying to get her nails done!
Jen's social media post about the unexpected turn of events has gone viral, with many fans and followers expressing their shock and amusement. The video shows Jen being asked by a friend how she's feeling, to which she responds with a smile, "I'm feeling great!" Little did we know that she was actually timing her contractions and doing squats in the background!
But what's even more fascinating is Jen's journey to motherhood. She announced her third pregnancy back in February, revealing that it was a surprise baby - but not necessarily an unplanned one. "We were excited," she said, hinting at the possibility of another addition to their family.
However, things weren't always rosy for the Affleck couple. Last year, they went through a rough patch in their marriage, and Jen even broke down on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives about their struggles. They briefly separated, but instead of giving up on each other, they decided to work on their relationship while waiting for their third child.
"We weren't on the best of terms," Jen revealed during an episode of the show. "But we were determined to make it work."
Zac even deferred his medical school acceptance in Arizona as they worked on their marriage and themselves. Talk about commitment!
In a recent interview with People (TSN), Jen shared that they're finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. "I'm focusing on my mental health, my marriage, and becoming the best version of myself that I can be," she said.
And it seems like their hard work is paying off - not just in terms of their relationship but also with the arrival of their new baby girl!
As Jen expressed her gratitude for their newborn daughter Penelope, we couldn't help but wonder what other surprises are in store for this couple. Will they have more children? Will their marriage continue to flourish?
One thing's for sure - we're hooked on the Affleck family drama, and we can't wait to see what's next!
