Paradise Found on Reality TV
Becca Kufrin, 36, and Thomas Jacobs, 33, found love where few expected it: on the beach during Bachelor in Paradise. The couple met during season 7 in August 2021 and experienced a brief breakup during the show’s finale. After leaving the Mexican island, they reconnected and never looked back.

From Heartbreak to Happily Ever After
Becca’s Bachelor journey wasn’t always smooth before finding Thomas. The former Bachelorette star navigated two previous engagements in the franchise before landing in Paradise. Her willingness to give reality love another chance paid off when she met Thomas Jacobs, creating a partnership that produced not one but two beautiful boys. The couple has openly shared their fertility struggles, with Becca revealing last August that getting pregnant with their second child was harder than their first.
Will There Be More Little Ones for the Kufrin Family?
As Becca and Thomas adjust to life with two sons under three years old, fans wonder if the family is complete. In August 2025, Becca told People magazine: “We want a second for sure,” admitting they’d been trying since earlier that year. Now that Steven Jon has arrived, will the couple consider a third addition? Instagram fans are already speculating about whether Benny and Stevie, as the parents nicknamed them, will become big brothers again.
