Nara Smith Is Pregnant, Expecting Baby No. 4 With Husband Lucky Blue Smith
Sam Hubbard’s news is priceless.
The Million Dollar Secret runner up shared she and husband Donte Hubbard expecting another baby together after years of fertility struggles and experiencing several miscarriages.
“For us to finally conceive and hold on to this pregnancy—we found out in January,” she told E! News’ Francesca Amiker in an exclusive interview. “It's funny, I was looking at a video that my husband and I did before our anniversary dinner where we wanted to see the results before we went for blood work. I was so nervous, and I was so grateful. I finally felt like, ‘Oh, my God, God has answered our prayers.’”
While Sam—who shares son Oliver, 3, with Donte—is now 22 weeks into her pregnancy, her previous struggles are still weighing heavily on her and Donte.
“My husband and I are still really, really scared and really nervous” she admitted. “I'm just being very raw and honest—we don't get to have that happy, fun experience. We're literally taking it week by week and praying whenever we go for the ultrasounds that everything is okay.”
As the reality star explained, “When you go through so much trauma and heartache, it's hard. You’re cautiously optimistic.”
But some of those fears are assuaged every time Sam and Donte get to look at their little one.

“This baby is so perfect, so healthy, so beautiful, so energetic,” she gushed. “Whenever we see the baby in the ultrasounds, we are over the moon. I can't tell you how grateful we are just because we've been through so much.”
And through it all, the 41-year-old had the ultimate support system—not just in doctors such as her therapist Sowania Germain—but also in Donte.
“My husband is one of the kindest human beings I've ever met,” she said. “I've realized he's also one of the smartest. Every time he just looked at me and he said, ‘Sam, God is going to bless us, I had a dream. It already happened. Don't worry about it.’ For me, things need to be planned out, right? I'm very methodical. And he's like, ‘Just have faith, it's going to happen.’”
The reality star—whose turn on Million Dollar Secret won over the hearts of viewers—also discussed what it meant to have Donte on this journey with her as she sought expertise from multiple doctors.

“I did so much, and every single time he was by my side, supporting me, no matter how ridiculous it sounded,” Sam noted. “If I'm like, ‘Babe, I went to the doctor, she said, jump eight times and kiss a frog in the leg.’ He'd be like, ‘Listen, you gotta go get that frog.’”
As she put it, “If I’ve done anything right, it’s him.”
And for others going through similar fertility struggles, Sam stressed the importance of community.
“To have somebody there who's so supportive, it goes such a long way,” she added. “And if anyone's doing this alone—keep your friends close, keep your families close.”
