João Franco and Jack Stirrup may have had their issues while working together this season of Below Deck Mediterranean, but when it comes to major life moments, these two yachties will be there for one another.

How to Watch

Watch Below Deck Mediterranean on Monday, June 3 at 9/8c and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo app.

João sent his warmest wishes to Jack and his girlfriend, Kelly Hidge, after the couple announced that they are expecting their first child. "Congrats to this guy! And his girl," João captioned a photo of himself and Jack taken on September 11 that he recently shared in his Instagram Story. "What a champ."

The yachties were often at odds this season of Below Deck Med as bosun João struggled to motivate his deckhand Jack. However, by the end of the season, João and Jack seemed to be on good terms, giving each other a big hug before leaving the Sirocco.

The Daily Dish confirmed Jack and Kelly's happy news earlier this week. Kelly first announced her pregnancy on Instagram on October 27 before sharing a series of photos of her gorgeous baby bump.

Chapter 1ð¤°ð½ I have been so skeptical about showcasing my bump and I to the world; on our little journey;mainly because I didnât want to be placed into the âincapableâ bracket: incapable of still having fun, incapable of doing normal day to day things, and most importantly of being incapable to work...I have worked so hard to establish myself in this competitive industry, and give 150% into whatever I do, so the anxiety Iâve had over not being booked for a job because of the perception of what being pregnant entails has left me worried, as working really is my happy place and what I will continue to do until I physically have to be bed boundð§ð¼ââï¸ This may sound ridiculous, and maybe itâs more my thoughts running away with me, but I wanted to air it; as perhaps Iâm not the only one who has felt or feels this wayð¤ So fuck it, here I am ready to take on the world with my growing little human, and amazing boyfriend by my side...who I couldnât of done it withoutð
