MAFS star Brook Crompton shares emotional pregnancy update: “Feeling so loved”
Inside Brook Crompton’s surprise baby shower breakfast.
Brook Crompton’s life has done a full 180. After a whirlwind, short-lived stint on Married At First Sight, the 27-year-old Gold Coast model has found her real-life fairytale. She’s back with her ex, got engaged over Christmas, and is expecting a baby, all while still technically “married” on the show.
“It honestly feels like everything has fallen into place,” Brook tells Woman’s Day. “This is everything I’ve ever wanted – to be with a partner who supports me and loves me for me.”
Now, Brook, who is due in July, has given fans another glimpse into her pregnancy journey, sharing a sweet baby shower surprise arranged by her sister.
“My gorgeous sister surprised me with a little baby breakfast this morning,” Brook captioned a series of snaps. “Feeling so loved and grateful for the beautiful people in my life!”
She also shared a heartfelt message to her unborn son in a post from March.
“To our little boy, you’ve already filled our world with so much hope and love,” Brook shared.
“The past year, and especially these last few months, have taught me more than I ever imagined about patience, love, and the person I want to be.
“I’ve dreamed of being a mother for as long as I can remember, and sharing this journey with the person I love most makes it even more special.
“Harry, you are my rock, my safe place, and my heart,” she added. “Thank you for making my dreams come true and for showing me what family truly feels like. I can’t wait to watch you become the father I know you’ll be, kind, strong, and full of love.”
Brook leaves MAFS’ and reunites with her ex
Brook reportedly left the show last August after just two weeks of filming. Sources say she grew tired of the production and struggled to connect with her on-screen husband, who she never even kissed.
Two weeks after leaving the show, Brook reconnected with her former partner, Harry, 28, a builder from the Gold Coast. Her brief, disastrous TV marriage to Chris Nield ended off-screen due to an “incident,” paving the way for Brook to follow her heart.
“Yeah, I came crawling back,” Harry tells Woman’s Day. “I missed her a little too much.”
“But he had to put in the hard yards, because he broke up with me,” laughs Brook. “But no, really we were both like, ‘OK, if it didn’t work back then, what are we going to do to make it work now?’”
Though she spoke on MAFS about cheating exes, Brook is clear: the reason for her initial breakup with Harry, three months before filming, was purely timing and bad communication.
“We’ve got a bubba on the way”
In November, as the couple settled into their renewed life together, Brook had a dream that would change everything.
“I had a dream that I was pregnant,” she says. “I woke up and thought, ‘That was crazy,’ but I did a pregnancy test… and it was positive!”
They did several more tests — all confirming the same life-changing news.
“We just couldn’t believe it,” says Brook. “Two separate psychics also told us we’d have a baby together, so it all felt very surreal.”
Now, Brook and Harry are preparing for a whole new chapter.
“We’ve got a whole life ahead of us now. We’re engaged, we’ve got a bubba on the way. We’ve got everything we’ve always wanted!”
