Former Bachelorette Clare Crawley has addressed pregnancy speculation fueled by her Valentine’s Day 2026 celebrations.

In the pic, Dawkins packed on the PDA with Crawley, resting one hand on her stomach. The Bachelor Nation alum also carried the couple’s 2-year-old daughter, Rowan, in the portrait.
After the image sparked speculation about whether Crawley and Dawkins were expanding their family, she publicly dispelled the rumors.

“Yikes! I didn’t realize my husband wasn’t supposed to touch my stomach when he kissed me,” she wrote in a follow-up post via her Instagram Stories. “No one’s pregnant here.”
Crawley and Dawkins, who also shares two daughters from a past relationship, have been together since late 2021. They got engaged one year later.
“Everything in my world has changed since I met her, she’s the love of my life and I wish the world knew the Clare that I know,” Dawkins exclusively told Us Weekly in 2022 of proposing to Crawley. “She is one of the strongest women I know and is truly a light. I love our life and [am] beyond excited about our future.”
Crawley tied the knot with Dawkins in February 2023. The pair welcomed their first baby, daughter Rowan, via surrogate the following year in January 2024.
“So, we’re going to be seeing our surrogate, who I just love. I feel like I’ve known her my whole life,” Crawley wrote via her Instagram Stories in August 2023, detailing her bond with the gestational carrier. “Her and I are alike in so many different ways.”
She added, “So grateful to have somebody in our lives that is so incredibly special and is giving us the biggest gift ever.”
Crawley was briefly engaged to her Bachelor Winter Games costar Benoit Beauséjour-Savard in 2018 and Dale Moss in 2021. (Moss, 37, appeared on Crawley’s season of The Bachelorette, proposing after just 12 days.)

“I think having a family and building a life, you know, happiness with someone that you love and care about is the most important thing,” Moss told Us after Crawley became a mom. “I just wish nothing but the best. That’s a big thing.”
As for Crawley, she doesn’t plan to hide her rose-filled history from Rowan.
“I want to always be the example of real, and Mom was trying her best,” the hairstylist told E! News in October 2024, revealing whether she’d let her daughter watch her seasons. “Mom was putting herself out there. Mom was believing in herself. Mom was following her heart. And regardless of if it’s a reality show or something else in life, I want to be the example for Rowen of — she followed her heart, she did what she wanted to do.”
She concluded, “I know that sounds crazy coming from a 43-year-old woman who got married when I was 41. I don’t know what in my soul has always felt this, but I always believed deep in my heart that it was all going to happen for me, even when there was moments of doubt, like, ‘When is it going to happen?’”
