Bachelorette’s Emily Maynard becomes grandmother at age

Emily Maynard is formally the first grandmother to come back from The Bachelor franchise.

On Friday, January 23, The Bachelorette star, 39, took to Instagram to announce that her daughter, Ricki Hendrick, 20, welcomed a child woman. Alongside a number of household photographs from the supply room, she wrote, We turned grandparents today!! The feeling is inexpressible. This is love.”

She also hooked up a bible verse, 1 John 4:7-11, that reads, “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

“This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him,” the verse continues. “This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.”

Several stars joined in the remark part to congratulate Emily on the new addition to the household.

While starring on Season 8 of The Bachelorette, Emily opened up about the premature loss of life of her late fiancé and Ricki’s dad, Ricky Hendrick.

The former race automotive driver died in a airplane crash in 2004 when he was 24 years outdated.

Emily hadn’t discovered out she was pregnant until after his sudden loss of life. She gave start to Josephine Riddick Hendrick at 19 years outdated; however, she calls her daughter Ricki in honor of her late father.

She is now a mom of six. She shares 5 younger kids together with her husband, Tyler Johnson, who was also current for Ricki’s start.

Emily and Tyler met via church previous to her 2012 look on The Bachelorette.

After her relationships from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette ended, the two reconnected and began courting.

When Tyler proposed in 2014, he gave each Emily and Ricki rings.
