They might still have a little bit of time before they become a family of three, but Bindi and her handsome hubby have been doing everything they can to prepare for their beloved child. When they have downtime, the duo have been “[reading] up on what to expect during the pregnancy,” a source told Closer Weekly in August, noting they already “have a ton of books on child-rearing.”
With all their preparation, there’s no doubt Bindi and Chandler are “going to be amazing parents,” the insider shared. Even though they “didn’t expect” to have a kid this early into their marriage, they’re “happy” about becoming parents. “[They are] excited about starting a family,” the source dished.
