During the episode, fans were able to see Joy and Austin’s wedding decorations, which appeared to be fall-themed as the flowers that decorated the church were orange and white and wheat was spread throughout the church. While the fall decorations may seem like no big deal, the couple’s autumn wedding theme could be a major hint that their nuptials was meant to take place in the fall.

Dr. Sean Henry, who runs Dr. Sean’s Women’s Health Podcast, and has not treated Joy, told Radar, “She looks about 24-26 weeks pregnant" despite announcing her pregnancy three months after her wedding.
