Heather Rae Young shares kiss with Tarek El Moussa in BTS footage from her pregnancy reveal shoot

Heather Rae Young looked angelic in new footage she unveiled on her TikTok account on Wednesday from a new photoshoot revealing her pregnancy.

The 35-year-old Selling Sunset star was joined at the beach by her Flip Or Flop star husband Tarek El Moussa, 40.

The loved-up couple shared the results of their photoshoot with People as they announced that Heather was expecting her first child, which will be Tarek’s third.

The clip opened with heather in a gorgeous cream-colored satin dress as Tarek, who wore a white button-up shirt and black pants, lovingly placed his hand on her burgeoning tummy.

He leaned in for a romantic kiss on the lips, and then he moved to kiss her neck as Heather turned toward the camera and showed off her infectious smile. 

‘After months and months of trying, and after being a step mommy to Tarek’s beautiful kids for the past 3 years, I get to be a mommy, myself,’ Heather wrote in her captions, adding extra exclamation marks in the clip, which was soundtracked by a romantic yet somber tune.

The real estate agent was joined on the beach by Tarek’s daughter Taylor, 11, and son Brayden, six, whom he shares with his ex-wife Christina Hall.

They waved while wearing matching T-shirt commemorating the pregnancy announcement.

Heather posed with one leg popped out as she cradled her hands on her baby bump while framed against the gorgeous sunset.

‘I’m pregnant with the love of my life’s baby — Baby El Moussa,’ she continued in her caption as she and Tarek had to run to escape an incoming wave. ‘…i can’t wait to meet you, hold you, and love you.’ 

She added that her baby would be born sometime in early 2023, though she didn’t offer a more specific date.

‘It was a huge shock,’ the blonde beauty shared with People as she announced her pregnancy. ‘We just weren’t expecting this. We had just gone through IVF. We had embryos on ice. We had a plan.’  

In the images, Tarek is seen kissing her baby bump while they are on a sandy beach.

Also present were Tarek’s children Taylor and Brayden.

Heather, who is due next year, said she is thrilled with the great news.

‘I think when you least expect it and there’s no stress in your life, the world just brought us what was meant to be. I’m so excited that it happened like this,’ explained the real estate agent.

She started dating Tarek in 2019 and they wed in 2021.

She was happy to be the ‘bonus mom’ to her stepkids and did not think they would try to have babies.

But she told People: ‘As your love grows more and more and you fall deeper in love with someone and you build this life together, I started picturing myself having a child with Tarek. I started thinking I just wanted to create something with the man that I’m in love with.’

They also shared how they found out they were expecting. 

Tarek explained he felt Heather was pregnant so he asked her to take a test. She took two. ‘Both came out ‘undetected,’ she said. ‘I said, “Oh, I must have done it wrong.”‘

She took one more test. ‘I was organizing my clothes. I was just doing other things, and probably like 20 minutes later I was like, “Oh, the pregnancy test.” I went and looked and it said full-on pregnant.’ 

Heather screamed with joy. 

‘I took two more tests. Right away, [they said] pregnant,’ she told the site.

They will share the gender of the baby at a reveal party in a few weeks.

‘Tarek thinks it’s a girl. I don’t know yet. I just want a happy, healthy baby,’ said Heather. ‘We already have Tay and Bray, so I’d be happy with either. But I secretly want a little mini Heather.’

Now they want to find a new home. ‘We are looking for a new house and if we don’t find that house when the baby comes, we do have room for the baby at our current home,’ said Tarek. ‘But we definitely need to find a bigger house with a yard and some more space.’

They are now filming the HGTV docu-series The Flipping El Moussas. 

Their journey to have a baby together has been long. 

In January, she said she retrieved seven eggs from her egg retrieval procedure.

‘All went smooth, was told 2 eggs got 7!!!!’ Heather posted to her Instagram Stories. ‘Doesn’t mean they will all be healthy but hoping (prayer hand emojis).’

She tagged her El Moussa in the post, which included a screenshot from the FaceTime call she had with him immediately after waking up from the procedure.

Heather looked tired but happy as she gazed wearily towards her husband.

The couple’s day started off bright and early in preparation for the procedure.

In video taken at 6:44AM that day, Heather and her husband were already on their way to the doctor’s office.

‘Morning, the El Moussas are tired!’ Heather said as she sat in a car with her husband.

‘Big day today!’ Tarek said.

‘We’re doing egg retrieval, so we’re on our way to the doctor right now and we’re gonna get two good strong eggs! Ready babe?’ Heather said. 

Heather has been documenting her fertility journey on social media as she prepares to freeze her eggs.

Earlier, Heather had ‘not ideal news’ to share with fans after learning it appeared as though one of her five eggs was not going to ‘mature enough to extract or freeze’. 

‘I have two that are strong, one that’s still growing, and another one that’s still growing so I have four that are looking decent,’ she said.

The Netflix star said the low count of eggs is ‘not the best number’ and noted that she planned to ask her doctor if they’re worth extracting to create embryos.

Heather wanted to avoid ‘doing another round’ and said she was hoping for some good news when she speaks with her medical professional.

Despite the news, she wrote she was ‘trying to stay positive.’

Heather and Tarek said ‘I do’ in October at the Rosewood Miramar Beach Resort, and then traveled to the Maldives and Dubai for a lavish honeymoon.

In November, the couple revealed their plans to start a family together.

‘We’re going to freeze embryos first, go from there and then see what happens,’ Heather said during an appearance on E! News Daily Pop.

While talking about their honeymoon, host Justin Sylvester said, ‘There’s nothing to do in the Maldives except drink–’

‘Make a baby?’ Heather interjected.

Tarek then went on to say that newlyweds were ‘having talks about having babies’ and were ‘practicing having babies.’

Heather said, ‘I’m more open to it because our life is already crazy.

‘We’re raising two kids. I’m already a mommy. So I’m like, well, why not have just one more?’

‘Whatever she wants,’ Tarek said. ‘Happy wife, happy life!’
