Sullivan recalled finishing “the final touches” on the little ones’ nursery when he and Farago “unexpectedly rushed to the hospital due to concerning symptoms” experienced by the Netflix personality.
“I brought her suitcase and hospital bag just in case, but felt as though it was possible we’d be back in our bed the same night,” Sullivan wrote. “We got her settled in the room as they checked her out, I went to grab Starbucks. Within 2 minutes of me stepping back in the room multiple doctors rushed in handing us surgery caps and said ‘happy birthday twins, we’re delivering them in 20 minutes!’”
The influencer said “everything happened so fast” as he and Farago prepared to meet their babies. “Francesca is the best mom in the world already, and I know we’re going to raise the best little humans together, along with big sibling Arlo🖤,” he wrote, referring to his eldest child. (Sullivan was 18 years old when he first became a parent.)

Farago and Sullivan announced their engagement in May 2023 after one year of dating. In March, Farago revealed via Instagram that she was “pretty newly pregnant,” and the reality star exclusively opened up to Us Weekly about her journey three months later.
Francesca Farago isn’t living in the past — and is completely “content” with her and partner Jesse Sullivan’s relationship as they prepare to welcome their twins. When asked if any of her exes have reached out to “wish her well” after announcing her pregnancy in April, Farago, 31, exclusively told Us Weekly that she has […]
“It’s kind of scary,” she said at the time. “I just have anxiety all the time that something’s going to go wrong, but I love being pregnant. I love feeling my belly grow and every time we see the babies it just feels surreal that it’s happening.”
Farago referred to pregnancy as an “adventure,” explaining that the biggest “misconception” is that she and Sullivan would not be “biologically related” to their babies. (The couple used a sperm donor and previously documented their IVF journey via social media.)
“I think a lot of people automatically go to saying that we’re just adoptive parents. … That’s really just people just are so ignorant and don’t realize queer couples exist and they have existed and adoptive families exist,” Farago told Us.
Navigating her first pregnancy — and preparing to welcome twins — had its “scary” moments, but Farago felt “excited” for her parenting “instincts” to kick in after giving birth. “I think I’m just going to naturally mold into it and know what to do instinctually,” she said at the time.
