Witney posted a video that showed her and Carson surrounded by a select few family and friends and few appearances via FaceTime for the reveal. The lucky guests in attendance were each given smoke poppers to set off. When everyone twisted the popper, blue smoke appeared. It’s a boy! Witney jumped and clapped in excitement while Carson stood behind her clapping as well. The couple embraced in a big hug, clearly elated to be having a baby boy!

Witney shared the news that she was expecting late last month. The news came just two months after Witney’s best friend and fellow Dancing with the Stars pro Lindsay Arnold revealed that she was expecting.

Congratulations to Witney and Carson! We look forward to learning what the couple choose to name their little boy and await his arrival this coming January.
