Julia Trubkina and Brandon Gibbs, a beloved couple from 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, have shared a deeply emotional moment seeing their baby for the first time during an ultrasound. This joyful milestone comes after a public journey through fertility struggles and marks a new chapter for the couple.
A Long-Awaited Pregnancy
Julia Trubkina and Brandon Gibbs, both 31, are expecting their first child together. The couple announced their pregnancy in late August 2025, sharing the news on social media with a video where Julia showed off her baby bump. In the clip, Brandon expressed that the news was both “exciting and a little scary,” but that they were thrilled to share the next part of their journey with fans.
This pregnancy is particularly meaningful because of the couple’s public struggles with fertility. On the current season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, viewers saw Julia’s emotional journey as she sought a second medical opinion after previously being told in Russia that she might not be able to have children. After visiting a fertility clinic and having an ultrasound, she was diagnosed with a uterine polyp but received hope that she could conceive.
The Emotional Ultrasound Reveal
The latest episodes of the show have documented the couple’s path to this pregnancy. A significant moment featured Julia and Brandon attending an ultrasound appointment together, where they saw their baby for the first time. The emotional reveal was a pivotal point for the couple, who have been open about their desire to start a family.
This joy follows a period of tension in their marriage, where Brandon admitted he was worried they weren’t on the same page about having children. During a group therapy session on a previous show, Julia had explained that a doctor in Russia once told her she could not have children, which created feelings of shame and fear around the topic. Brandon encouraged her to get a second opinion, leading to the hopeful diagnosis and, ultimately, this pregnancy.
Planning for the Future
As they prepare for their new arrival, Brandon and Julia have been making big life changes. Recent episodes showed them planning an extended trip to Europe, a decision that caused some conflict with Brandon’s parents. Brandon quit his job, and the couple planned to fund their travels by selling Julia’s apartment. They told Brandon’s parents they were leaving without a set return date, a move that surprised and concerned his family.
Despite these earlier tensions, the couple is now focused on their growing family. They have shared professional maternity photos, including one where Brandon holds a strip of sonogram images, celebrating this new chapter. Congratulatory messages have poured in from other members of the 90 Day Fiancé family, including Elizabeth Potthast and Darcey Silva.
For Julia and Brandon, this pregnancy is the happy outcome after facing significant challenges. Their story has been a central part of the current season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, showing their arguments about starting a family, Julia’s fears about her ability to conceive, and the medical journey that brought them to this point. The emotional ultrasound was a key scene, representing the realization of a long-held dream for the couple.
