Bachelor Nation alum Krystal Nielson experienced complications while welcoming her and husband Miles Bowles’ second baby.
“Welcoming our little warrior, Rowan Vincent Bowles. 💙,” Bowles, 31, wrote via Instagram on Tuesday, November 18, alongside a photo of the couple’s newborn son. “His entrance into the world was dramatic and filled with unexpected complications, but by nothing short of miracles, both mom and baby are here and safe.”
Bowles added that while Nielson, 38, and Rowan still have a “recovery road ahead,” they are grateful for the support they’ve received.
“We are overwhelmed with gratitude — for the heroic doctors, nurses, and medical teams who fought for them, and for every single prayer and message of love from our family and friends,” he continued. “Praying that Krystal and Rowan will both be home safe and sound soon. Thank you for holding us close in your hearts. 🤍.”
BiP’s Krystal Nielson and Husband Miles Bowles’ Relationship Timeline
Fans were introduced to Nielson in 2018 during The Bachelor season 22 where she competed for Arie Luyendyk Jr.’s heart. After being eliminated in week 6, Nielson returned for Bachelor in Paradise season 5 that same year and she met Chris Randone.
Nielson and Randone got engaged during the BiP finale. They tied the knot in June 2019 in an intimate ceremony officiated by former host Chris Harrison at the Vidanta Hotel in Puerto Vallarta. Their nuptials were televised and aired during BiP season 6.
In February 2020, Nielson and Randone separated after less than one year of marriage.
“It hurts to announce that at this moment, we have mutually decided to separate. Never did we imagine this scenario, but we’ve come to a point where we both need to work on ourselves,” the pair said in a statement to Bachelor Nation. “We are best friends that love and care for each other so deeply. We’ve appreciated everyone’s love and support so far throughout our journey and we just ask that you please respect our privacy as we navigate through this.”
Before finalizing the divorce paperwork in January 2021, Nielson met Bowles. The couple went public with their relationship in October 2020.
“This year has been full of ups and downs. Loss, uncertainty, and constant anxiety over when ‘life’ will get back to normal,” the fitness coach wrote via Instagram alongside a photo of her and Bowles. “But I realized that life isn’t meant for us to replay… but rather for us to embrace, evolve and create new experiences that will continue to shape us into who we are meant to be.”
The following month, Nielson and Bowles revealed they were expecting their first child. The couple welcomed daughter Andara Rose in March 2021. Two years later, Nielson and Bowles tied the knot.
In May, Nielson announced that she and Bowles were expanding their family.
Bachelor Nation’s Krystal Nielson and Miles Bowles Are Married
“Our second little love is on the way. 🤍,” Nielson captioned a close-up shot of her family cradling her baby bump.
Last month, Nielson shared she experienced Braxton Hicks contractions for the first time. (Braxton Hicks contractions are false labor contractions a person can have during pregnancy, per the Cleveland Clinic.)
“Experienced my first Braxton Hicks contractions last night… and part of me thought I might be going into labor at 34 weeks!! 😅,” she wrote via Instagram in October. “Making sure to capture photos of this bump while I still can! And making sure I can cook this baby boy a bit longer. ✨”
