The couple is framing this as a joyful, lucky surprise, emphasizing their gratitude and the support of their inner circle in Charleston and beyond.
Insiders are buzzing about the rapid timeline from the July wedding in Provence to the October announcement, while ex Craig Conover's past praise for Billy is being resurfaced as validation of her choice.
Naomie, 34, announced the pregnancy on Instagram on Sunday, Oct. 25, 2026, with the caption 'Bébé Billy à Bord!!' The couple married in July 2026, and Us Weekly confirmed their relationship in April 2025.
Naomie Olindo is living her best life, proving that a fast timeline from wedding aisle to baby bump is totally possible when you find the right guy.
The Charleston tea is officially steaming, folks. Naomie Olindo, the Southern Charm alum who has been keeping her romantic life on the down-low for the better part of two years, has dropped the ultimate bomb. On Sunday, October 25, 2026, the 34-year-old took to Instagram to announce that she and her husband, Billy Haire, are expecting their first baby together.
The caption? A cheeky French nod to their recent wedding destination: “Bébé Billy à Bord!!” She paired the text with stunning maternity photos, admitting she is “feeling incredibly lucky (and shocked)” to be entering this new chapter. It is a happy surprise, but let’s be real: the timeline is tight.
This announcement comes just three months after the couple tied the knot in July. For those who haven’t been tracking the receipts, Naomie and Billy’s romance was a stealth mission. Us Weekly exclusively confirmed in April 2025 that the two had started dating.
By December of that same year, they were engaged, and by July 2026, they were exchanging vows in the picturesque region of Provence, France. Naomie shared wedding photos earlier this month, noting that she honored her late father by surprising Billy with his resized wedding ring. The ceremony was officiated by her father-in-law, surrounded by their closest loved ones.
It was a moment of pure joy, and now, barely a quarter of the way through their first year of marriage, they are already expanding the family. Naomie even took a moment to think of “those still hoping for this chapter,” showing a grounded side amidst the glamour. Of course, you cannot talk about Naomie’s love life without bringing up the exes, and the internet is already digging into the past.
Her former Southern Charm co-star and ex-boyfriend, Craig Conover, dated Naomie for three years before splitting in 2017. But here is the tea: Craig has been vocal about his approval of Billy. Back in December 2025, during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Craig stated, “I have heard more good things about this guy than anyone.” He recounted how friends in Los Angeles who used to know Billy and his ex-wife, model Brooks Nader, had nothing but praise for him.
Craig concluded, “So apparently she’s in really good hands.” It is rare for an ex to give such a solid seal of approval, and it adds a layer of comfort to this rapid-fire romance narrative. Speaking of Brooks Nader, her history with Billy is the other side of this coin. Billy, 39, was previously married to the model from 2019 to 2024.
Brooks, now 29, has alleged that both parties signed non-disclosure agreements barring them from speaking about each other. On The Viall Files podcast in August 2025, Brooks claimed, “We both did [sign one]. It was a mutually exclusive [NDA].” She also reflected on how the marriage shaped her, noting she was only 19 when she started dating Billy.
While Naomie’s former costars like Landon Clements and Molly O’Connell were quick to flood her comments with congratulations—“You’re going to be the best mom 💘,” wrote Clements—the background drama of Billy’s previous marriage and Naomie’s past relationships adds a spicy complexity to this otherwise sweet announcement. The Southern Charm alum has finally found her happy ending, or at least, the beginning of a new one.
