US Weekly is the first time to report on Candiace’s gender reveal. In a chat with the outlet, the mom-to-be said she predicted she’d have a boy because of his “masculine energy.” For the nursery, the parents chose an ‘Alice in Wonderland’ theme, and she loves it!

“It was the most magical and indescribable experience,” she told US Weekly. “I think I’m actually going to miss it, but I also can’t wait to see him and see him all day!”

The foods she’s craving most from her fall baby (right now) are spaghetti with Olive Garden meat sauce, Apple Jacks cereal, and watermelon. Candiace added that her burger obsessions are a “good time.” In August, Dillard took to Instagram to share a sneak peek of her baby shower for their brainchild.

“When you’re running around, it’s easy to forget how lucky you are. I’m so grateful for my friends, my friends! My family! For reminding me that I am loved and showering me and @cbassett33 in such a special way. We ate and laughed and filled that room with so much joy and it was EXACTLY what I needed. Thank you ALL! We are SO blessed,” she wrote of the event.

While this is Candiace’s first time on the parenting show, her husband is making his fourth trip. He has three children from a previous relationship. As mentioned, the couple has been going through their pregnancy journey off-camera. Dillard said in March that she would be taking a break from the show to balance new opportunities and responsibilities.
