Former 'Bachelorette' Ali Fedotowsky pregnant

NEW YORK -- Former "Bachelorette" Ali Fedotowsky is expecting her first child with fiance Kevin Manno.

Ali, 31, made the big announcement on her website aliluvs.com Wednesday.

Ali wrote: "Kevin and I decided that we wanted to become parents on July 4th in 2015. We were hanging in our backyard talking about life and how grateful we are to live in this country and have this life. We were talking about our future, our love for our little dog Owen (who I refer to as our first child in my pregnancy journal), and talked about our new home that we bought together and suddenly it clicked - we were ready to start a family."

She says that she plans on blogging a lot about her pregnancy and that "Baby Manno" is already very much loved!

She became engaged to 32-year-old Manno back on September 2, 2015.

Ali was the season 6 "Bachelorette" on ABC. You may remember that she became engaged to Roberto Martinez, but they broke up back in November 2011.
