“Been a little MIA…”

After a whirlwind few years following her time on Married At First Sight in 2022, Domenica has taken to Instagram to announce her pregnancy.

“Been a little MIA working on my greatest project yet.....Baby due September 2025,” she captioned the video.

The video, set to the tune of Taylor Swift’s But Daddy I Love Him (‘I’m having his baby’ - yes she is!), features loving moments from Dom’s journey so far, including her taking a pregnancy test, a sonogram, and celebrations with friends and family.
