The Challenge’s Jenna Compono and Zach Nichols Expecting Baby No. 4
The Challenge alums Jenna Compono and Zach Nichols are getting ready to welcome their fourth baby.
“Because 3 kids wasn’t chaotic enough 🤣,” Compono, 32, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, January 25. “Baby #4 coming August 2025 👶🏻♥️.”
Compono uploaded a portrait of kids Anthony, 3, Liliana, 2, and Carmella, 11 months, sitting in order of their ages below balloons that read “1,” “2” or “3.” Below a “4” balloon was a framed sonogram photo with the words “Coming Soon.”
Nichols, 37, reshared the announcement via his own Instagram Story later that day.
Several of the couple’s Challenge costars shared their excitement in the Instagram comments.
“Congrats 😍😍😍,” Tori Deal replied, while Kailah Casillas asked, “When ya buying the school bus? 😛 so happy for you 🤍🤍🤍.”
Compono and Nichols met while filming The Challenge: Battle of the Exes 2 in 2015, going on to date on and off. Nichols ultimately proposed in December 2019 before they said “I do” two years later in March 2021. Compono found out she was pregnant with son Anthony one month before their nuptials. He was born in September 2021.
“Zach got to see him before me while he held my leg and watched him come out,” she exclusively told Us Weekly at the time. “But when he was put on my chest and we both got to see him, it was amazing. We made this adorable little life. It’s truly the best feeling ever. We haven’t put him down once yet; we are completely obsessed.”
Compono added, “We are looking forward to bringing Anthony home and just having fun being parents. Zach is super hands-on and I can honestly say I haven’t changed one diaper yet. He continues to impress me every day, and you can easily see that being a dad came so naturally for him.”
Compono and Nichols welcomed their second child, daughter Liliana, in December 2022. Carmella followed in February 2024.
“The greatest gift we ever gave you was each other,” Compono gushed via Instagram in November 2024, sharing footage of the three siblings.
While the reality TV alums have their hands full with almost four kids, they might not be done expanding their brood. In 2020, Compono ruled out another Challenge stint because of their family plans.
“We want six kids,” she said in an Instagram Story Q&A at the time.
