Days after her ex-husband Tarek El Moussa accidentally announced she was expecting a baby boy, Christina Anstead revealed the sex of her baby on the way with new husband Ant.
The pregnant Flip or Flop and Christina on the Coast star, 35, shared a happy photo from their sex reveal celebration on Instagram Friday, which featured her two children with 37-year-old El Moussa — son Brayden James, 3?, and daughter Taylor Reese, 8 — and Anstead’s son Archie, 12, and daughter Amelie, 15.
“It’s a boy 💙!! @ant_anstead, the kids and I are so excited! This blended family cannot wait to add our 5th child to the mix,” she captioned the group photo.

In another post, shared on Christina’s Instagram Story, the HGTV star jokingly asked her fans and followers to take a poll to see if she was expecting a boy or girl. “Can’t wait to find out,” she captioned the Boomerang video along with a crying laughing emoji.
The sex reveal comes days after El Moussa sat down for an interview with TMZ Live, during which he let slip the sex of the Ansteads’ baby on the way.
“Things are good today. She’s remarried, she’s actually pregnant — everybody knows that,” he said. “She’s having a son. My kids are super excited. I’m excited for her new chapter in life. They’re a great couple and I really do hope the best for them.”

Shortly after, Christina’s publicist Cassie Zebisch confirmed to PEOPLE exclusively that the pair is indeed expecting a boy.
“While Christina and Ant wished they could have shared the news themselves, they are very excited to welcome a baby boy in the fall,” Zebisch said.
Christina announced late last month that she and Ant, who married in December, are expecting their first baby together in September. “@ant_anstead and I are so excited to announce #babyanstead coming this September!! The kids are all so excited to meet their new sibling,” she posted alongside a snapshot of herself holding out a sonogram photo while hugging her husband.
“Blessed! #MiracleBaby,” Ant commented.
Last week, Christina proudly showed off her baby bump at 17 weeks along.
