"It's crazy to think that we are beginning to prepare for Baby Fren who will change our lives forever. 👶🍼," they revealed online as Dani reached her halfway pregnancy mark.
"We are extremely unorganised, underprepared and underestimating how much parenthood will change our lives, but we are lucky to have incredible role models and hearts so full of love already.
"Baby Fren, you are going to turn our lives upside down but in the best possible way! 🥰," Dani added.
Jono and Dani's relationship timeline
Jono and his now wife-of-four-years Dani first connected on Tinder in 2019.
Fast forward seven months, and the Travel Guides star popped the question while on holidays in the US at a home game for the Philadelphia Eagles.
In their six years together, Jono and Danielle have ticked off plenty of milestones. Instagram
The pair tied the knot in June 2021 in a gorgeous outdoor ceremony in Luskintyre, a rural area in the Hunter Region of New South Wales.
In May 2024, the couple celebrated something they "never thought [they] would achieve" – buying their first home together!
Jono's family have credited Dani for bringing him out of his shell and audiences could see that for themselves as Dani finally joined the Frens on a Travel Guides holiday.
A moment six years in the making, in July 2025 Danielle tagged along with the Frens on a trip to Japan while sister Victoria was away at work.
