From Pregnancy Secrecy to Public Joy: Wood's Journey
Wood's journey to welcoming baby Talon was kept largely private initially.

These eagle-eyed viewers correctly suspected that Jacqueline might be expecting again.
She officially confirmed her fifth pregnancy back on March 17, 2025, through her weekly newsletter, revealing that she was "almost 7 months pregnant!" At the time, she shared her family's excitement, noting that her kids were "over the moon" about a new sibling. This period of quiet anticipation has now blossomed into public joy with Talon's arrival.
