"I am pregnant. I literally just found out," she said during the podcast, which had been recorded about a month before it dropped on April 11. "I have not told one f-cking person except for my best friend. I'm like seven weeks. But, yeah, I'm pregnant, it's so crazy. It's so scary."

Monica Garcia discusses more about her pregnancy

Monica, who already has four daughters (she shares her three youngest with her ex-husband), said she found out she was expecting when she went to urgent care for something unrelated.

While there, the doctor told her that she is pregnant. Monica later shared that she had not been trying to get pregnant. 

"By all means, I should not be pregnant," the 39-year-old said.

Who Is Monica Garcia's Boyfriend?

When asked who the father of her new addition is, Monica revealed that she's been in a relationship with a 29-year-old property manager named Braxton for about a year. 

"I've been dating him for a year, and no one even knows who he is..." she said on The Viall Files. "We actually met during filming. I met him filming."

Monica said that she met her now-boyfriend Braxton when she went snowmobiling with Heather Gay on the show, though they didn't reconnect until a few weeks later. 

She gave him her number during the snowmobiling excursion, and he contacted her two weeks later. The two have been together ever since, and Monica said that Braxton has been really "supportive" since he learned that he was going to be a dad. 

"Honestly, we were both in shock, but he has been incredible," she said of how he reacted when she told him her pregnancy news. "He has been so supportive."
