Bliss Poureetezadi-Goytowski and Zack Goytowski are expanding their family, proving once again that — for some — love truly is blind.
“We have a new little Valentine on the way ❤️,” Bliss, 36, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, February 14, announcing she is pregnant with the couple’s second baby. “Our hearts are overflowing because this time we know the joy and awe of parenthood. The out of this world, all consuming love that’s coming. We are so excited to meet you our precious, heavenly blessing!”
Bliss further told People that it’s been “extremely special” to grow her brood.
“It doesn’t really feel quite real until they’re here,” the mom-to-be gushed to the outlet. “I feel like it’s almost more exciting in a way this time because we know the love and joy that’s coming.”
Bliss and Zack, 34, got married during Love Is Blind season 4, which aired on Netflix in spring 2023. They became the first LiB couple to welcome a baby when Bliss gave birth to daughter Galileo Terri Rayne in April 2024.
Bliss recently found out she is expecting again after returning home from a trip to Japan.
“I was feeling a little bit off. I started having weird dreams, which is the same kind of thing that happened with our daughter,” she told People. “It was a little early, but I decided to take a test and I was fully prepared … to see a not pregnant result, but it came back pregnant and I was really shocked.”
Bliss and Zack have already told their 21-month-old daughter the happy news.
“I think she can comprehend,” Bliss teased to the outlet of her firstborn. “I got her a baby doll. We talked to her about it. She saw the baby on the ultrasound. She can feel the baby move. She was meant to be a big sister.”
She continued, “I really think she’s going to love it. I honestly think she’s going to take to it really well.”
As Bliss and Zack gear up for life of two under 2, Bliss has already dealt with a more “challenging” pregnancy this time around.
“The first trimester, especially with a toddler, is probably one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Zack has been really supportive,” Bliss acknowledged to People. “I think this time, [I’m] just a million times more exhausted.”
Bliss’ pregnancy comes shortly after she and Zack held a belated first birthday party for Galileo.
“That morning the house ran on lists. Bliss moved from room to room, phone glowing in her palm, eyes on the clock,” Zack recalled in a Friday, February 13, Instagram post. “Every small detail felt like it mattered because it was Galileo’s first birthday party.”
He continued, “Galileo sat in my arms, eyes wide, watching kids fly past her, then pressing her face into my shoulder when it got too close. Later, plastic balls hid in the grass. The castle sagged as the blower went quiet. Galileo slept heavy against my chest, frosting from her very first birthday cake still on her cheeks. It was a perfect day.”
Zack met Bliss sight unseen in the Love Is Blind pods during season 4, where he also connected with Irina Solomonova. He ultimately dumped Bliss in favor of proposing to Irina, now 29, but they broke up within days of meeting in person.
“I would say I made a mistake with not picking Bliss [in the first place],” Zack exclusively told Luxury Handbag Shopping in March 2023 of his time on the hit reality TV dating experiment. “I knew that when I ended it [with Irina] and was kind of dealing with that. I don’t know how much you could see of the turmoil that I was going through, but when I did end it, then my very first thing was I wanted to go and tell [producers] to bring [Bliss] back and that I had made the wrong choice, but I knew I had to live with the decision.”
