(PHOTOS) Melissa Rycroft Pregnant: Former 'Bachelor' Hopeful Pregnant with New Hubby, Tye Strickland

Former The Bachelor 2009 hopeful, Melissa Rycroft, is pregnant! News that Melissa Rycroft is pregnant comes quickly after her marriage last year to hubby, Tye Strickland. Strickland, 29, is an insurance agent and was not a part of 'The Bachelor'. After Melissa Rycroft, 27, was rejected on The Bachelor 2009, she capped off a year of chaos and heartbreak by finding love and getting married to regular-joe Tye Strickland.
Newly-wed Bachelor Star Melissa Rycroft Pregnant? Yes! Baby On The Way for 2011...

Following their December 2009 wedding, Melissa Rycroft (photos here) says she had no immediate plans on getting pregnant. Her husband Tye was apparently ready to go from day one, though! Still, the Melissa Rycroft pregnant shocker comes as the happiest of surprises, says the former Bachelor 2009 contestant. "It's such a blessing."

Although the Melissa Rycroft pregnant (photos here) news is brand new, we already have an estimated due date! Us Weekly is reporting the Melissa Rycroft is roughly three months pregnant, or about to enter her second tri-mester. This math is based on a projected February 2011 due date for Rycroft's new baby, reported by Us Weekly.

Melissa Rycroft, who is now expecting a baby with new husband Tye Strickland, will be hosting ABC's new reality romance series, set in The Bachelor mansion. The series is called Bachelor Pad (premiering August 9), and promos shown on this week's The Bachelorette promise tons of tears, drama and hook-ups during the competition series which offers a chance at love, plus a nice chunk of change ($250,000, I believe).
