Paige Banks is in her third trimester and is excited to welcome her first child into the world.
It’s seemingly been a smooth pregnancy for the Married at First Sight star, who shared the most stunning pregnancy photos on social media moments ago.
Long-time fans of the show are excited for the Season 12 star because she certainly deserves a happy ending after her nightmare experience on the show.
They took to the comment section to congratulate the mom-to-be and share predictions on the baby’s gender.
We’re currently on Season 17 of the popular Lifetime reality show, but Season 12 will always be memorable.
The experts matched Paige with a fellow Atlanta native named Chris Williams, and it was drama from start to finish.
Paige stuck with the toxic marriage for as long as she could, but eventually, she chose to end the nightmare, with viewers backing her all the way.

The Celebrity Rehab star, Kari Ann Peniche, will possibly lose custody of her 10-month old baby due to Meth. She is posing a serious threat to her baby's health.
All these accusations were proven when his ex-husband, Justin Williams, took their son for a drug test. He already suspects that his ex-wife is abusing the substance again. It's a good thing he followed his instincts because results say that the baby is indeed positive for crystal met.
So, after finding out the truth, he wasted no time to file his documents to La County Superior Court. He is actually demanding sole custody for the child and wants to ban Kari out of their baby's life without supervision.
So far though, there's still no word from Kari's side.

Actress Rebecca Gayheart is pregnant with her second child, according to U.S. reports.
The former Beverly Hills, 90210 star, 39, will give birth later this year, according to Life & Style magazine.
The actress has been spotted sporting what looks like a baby bump in recent weeks, but opted not to open up about her happy news.
She and husband Eric Dane became first-time parents last year when daughter Billie Beatrice was born.
The actress' publicist had not responded to WENN's requests for comment at press time.
Coincidentally, the model who was caught naked, bathing with Gayheart in a headline-grabbing 2009 home video, shot by Dane, is also reportedly pregnant.
Kari Anne Peniche's husband Justin Williams announced the news in divorce papers, filed in Los Angeles earlier this week (beg04Jul11).
Williams is unsure if the baby his estranged wife is carrying is his - and he is asking a judge to order a DNA test to determine if the unborn child is "a child of the marriage".

Given Kari Ann Peniche's previous antics, we're not exactly shocked at this turn of events. The husband of the former Celebrity Rehab subject, who two years ago infamously appeared nude in a home video with Eric Dane and wife Rebecca Gayheart, has filed divorce papers seeking to end their four-month marriage. But here's the bombshell part: Not only is Peniche pregnant, he claims the baby may not even be his. Justin Williams filed his petition on July 1 in Los Angeles Superior Court, citing irreconcilable differences. But according to court papers obtained by E!

Possibly the most impressive story on this year’s American Idol series so far, is that of 16 year old Christian Spear.
Having survived a battle with leukemia and making it into remission, the American Idol judges were no challenge to Miss Spear. She wowed the panel with her reserved but skilled version of Etta James’s “All I Could Do is Cry”.
Randy Jackson was impressed, saying, “I think you’re really good. At 16 I’m so, so impressed.”
Joe Jonas agreed, “You’re definitely very confident and [have] a beautiful voice.”
Kara DioGuardi raved: “You’ve got a big natural gift, and I think when you were singing I didn’t sense any natural fear from you. And you know, that is really rare in a 16-year-old.”
Simon summed it saying. “I like you. I like you very much.”

20. Katelyn Epperly (New this week): Producers inexplicably played up her divorcing-parents backstory, and (blasphemy alert!) the shaggy-maned blonde admitted she'd long been "stand-offish" about auditioning for the show. Still, Katelyn's choice of Duffy's "Syrup and Honey" was refreshingly left-field, and as Shania Twain noted, girlfriend has the kind of voice one might hear on a hit record. 19. Maddy Curtis (Last week No. 17): Charming 16-year-old warmed hearts and won fans thanks to a sweet package that highlighted her loving relationship with her four brothers with Down syndrome. But nerves and inexperience bubbled through her rendition of "Hallelujah." Perhaps a...

Although they didn’t mention it on tonight’s show, cancer survivor Justin Williams actually got through to last year’s American Idol Hollywood stage. He was sent home as his voice was thought to be too classical, but after a year of working on his style, Justin returned to Boston to wow the judges.
Williams, who survived cancer after being diagnosed with the illness during a mission in Spain seven years ago, gave a fantastic rendition of ‘Feeling Good’ and earned himself another Hollywood pass. Here’s hoping he makes it a bit further this year!

"American Idol" heads to Atlanta Wednesday (Jan. 13) for auditions, and we're hopeful for some good talent ... and a few characters.
After all, the Dirty South style of hip-hop emerged from there from hip-hop/R&B artists such as Outkast. Atl is also home to Ludacris, Usher, Jermaine Dupri, Ciara and Kanye West.
Other genres also thrive there, we have Hotlanta to thank for The Black Crowes, Collective Soul, the Indigo Girls and a slew of indie rock bands.
And let's not forget "Real Housewife" Kim Zolciak. Any guesses on how fast Kara DioGuardi would give that "Tardy for the Party" singer the boot?
We enjoyed last night's auditions, especially the 16-year-old Katie Stevens and Maddy Curtis, both of whom had nice, soulful voices. Let's see if Atlanta can add to the surprises.
What kind of talent do you think "Idol" will find in A-Town?

Remember White Chocolate? "American Idol" producers seem to be hoping you won't. Last season, the sweetly named rap-and-soul group formed during Hollywood week and featured the vocal stylings of Kris Allen and Matt Giraud. Also in the foursome was a guy named Justin Williams, who didn't make the semifinals. We never heard from him again ... until he popped up on "Feeling Good," the song Adam Lambert covered last year during Rat Pack night.
This year, Williams seems well-prepared for the increased attention. His Facebook page contains over 100 professionally shot photos, some in black and white, some showing the singer posed with a guitar in front of rock outcroppings and a picturesque lake. His personal Web site contains a blog and links to his YouTube and Twitter pages.

The intro acknowledged the judging turmoil that has roiled "Idol" since the last season ended in May, alluding to Paula Abdul's departure and Ellen DeGeneres' addition to the panel. But there was no mention of Simon Cowell's announcement on Monday that he would be leaving "Idol" at the end of this season, either because the news broke too late to re-edit the episode or because producers didn't want to draw attention to it.

Tuesday (January 12) night's "American Idol" season nine kick-off had everything we've come to expect from the series' early audition episodes: Sob stories, delusional wannabes and Alicia Keys covers. Everything, of course, except Paula Abdul.
Producers shrewdly addressed the Paula Issue with the very first audition of the season: A walking Boston stereotype named Janet McNamara whose sole purpose — aside from saying "wicked" and conveniently promoting the "American Idol" video game — was confusing "new" judge Kara DioGuardi with Paula. "See?" the TV show said to its devoted fanbase. "This random girl who can't sing didn't notice Paula was gone. Neither should you."
Well, okay then!
Guest judge PoshBot-2000 (also known as Victoria Beckham) was on hand to play the role of Pop Culture Relic Who Wears Funny Clothes, and she did a fine job of sitting in a chair and blinking. Based on that criteria alone, she's already proven to be...

American Idol kicked off its ninth season last night, as Ryan Seacrest greeted viewers with these words:
“Each year we get bigger and better. Be prepared for this year’s talent to blow you away!”
Hmmm... where have we heard that before? Oh, right. On every other edition of the show!
Still, it was hard not to break into a smile upon first seeing Simon Cowell and company at the judge's table. Even if Victoria Beckham did seem stiff and out of place there, the sight of awkward auditioners and a smiling Simon (in a t-shirt, of course) was as comforting as a mug of hot chocolate on a winter day.
So, who actually stood out in Boston? Katie Stevens, Luke Shaffer, Maddy Curtis, Tyler Grady, Amadeo Diricco, Justin Williams and Leah Laurenti were among the 32 golden ticket recipients.
But why did Andrew Fenlon make the night's most lasting impression?...

When Utah's Justin Williams made it to Hollywood on last season's "American Idol," he had a powerful voice, but was a bit tentative and not really particularly dialed in to contemporary pop music. But when Williams flashed his magazine cover-worthy grin on Tuesday night's season nine premiere, it was clear that he's been working on his look and sound.
"I remember him as more of a beautiful, classical, Josh Groban kind of singer," said Matt Giraud, season eight's fifth-place finisher, who was in the Hollywood Week "White Chocolate" quartet with Williams and eventual winner Kris Allen last year. "He tried to sing pop and dance around with us, but he had that classical voice, which was amazing, but we had a hard time teaching him hip pop songs and dancing around.

Hottie Justin Williams will have the female "American Idol" fans reaching for their phones. Watch him in Hollywood Week last year with finalists Kris Allen and Matt Giraud.
During the group numbers last year in the Hollywood Round, Williams joined up with eventual finalists Kris Allen and Matt Giraud plus awesome rapper India Morrison to perform the Jackson 5 hit "I Want You Back." It was great, one of the best group performances.
Tuesday night on "Idol," Williams came back to try again and this time he brought out the big guns -- classic crooner song "Feelin' Good." Woo woo.
You can practically see Kara and Lady V's panties bursting into flames.

Tuesday night on "Idol," Williams came back to try again and this time he brought out the big guns -- classic crooner song "Feelin' Good." Woo woo.
You can practically see Kara and Lady V's panties bursting into flames.
