JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers are ready for a family — and trusting the process.
“Fertility is such a sensitive topic to anybody going through it. Jordan and I have been on our own fertility journey — and man, it’s been a journey,” the 34-year-old former Bachelorette told Us Weekly at a recent dinner for her alcohol brand, Saint Spritz, at the Butcher’s Daughter in New York City. “But I do keep positive about the situation and I know that when it’s meant to be, it will be.”
Noting “everybody has a different experience” when it comes to expanding their family, Fletcher confirmed the couple are “looking forward” to having kids. She added, “When the time comes and we have a little Baby Rodgers, it’ll be a very, very exciting moment.”
Fletcher and Rodgers, 36, met on season 12 of The Bachelorette, which aired in 2016.
“It is pretty wild that next year will be a decade of me and Jordan being together,” she told Us. “When I think back on the show I’m like, ‘Oh, that was just, like, two years ago. I was 24 just yesterday!’ No, I’ll be 35 in November. But what a whirlwind and crazy story to be able to tell 10 years later.”
While the twosome have a wedding anniversary (May 14, 2022), Fletcher notes that the anniversary of when Rodgers popped the question is extra special. “The fact that we met on a reality TV show — and have been together since we met — is wild,” she said.
Acknowledging she doesn’t always keep up with The Bachelor franchise — Fletcher is, however, all in on Love Island USA and wants someone to shake things up with Ace acting like “the president in the villa” — she plans to check in on the new season of Bachelor in Paradise.
“I am interested to see how the Goldens are integrated into it,” she said. “I want to see them get in on the fun.”
While keeping up with her favorite reality TV shows, Fletcher is sipping on her brand’s Hugo Spritz.
“Amalfi was our original, inspired by a love of the Aperol spritz. Hugo is the It Girl for me,” she told Us. “When we were developing this, it was before Hugo even had its moment in the U.S. so we felt proud to be a little bit ahead of the curve. I could drink way too many of these. But I, obviously, love all of them.”
The brand, which she runs with her brother Ben, sister-in-law Mallory and Mallory’s sister, Jordan, recently celebrated becoming the No. 1 wine cocktail in Target after two months in the stores.
“The fact that we were able to accomplish that within 60 days of launching in Target nationally was like, ‘Holy moly, I think we’re onto something.’ It was so freaking cool,” she said. “So proud of our team.”
