"We're blessed and overjoyed to be welcoming a baby boy into the world and the third little boy into the MAFS family," Deonna and Greg told Reality TV World in a statement.
Deonna and Greg's first child will be the eighth baby to be born out of the Married at First Sight franchise.

"I'm beyond excited to be having a little boy," the mom-to-be gushed to Us Weekly. "I can't wait for Greg to have a little mini me."
And Greg added, "Can't wait to participate in father-son activities and watch him grow up to be a fine gentleman... like his dad."
Last week's Season 2 episode of Married at First Sight: Couples Cam featured a pregnant Deonna giving her dog Bailey special attention and affection since her furbaby was no longer going to be her only baby in the house.
Deonna and Greg celebrated the gender news by dressing in formal attire and having a maternity photo shoot. Greg wore a navy blue suit with a bow tie for the occasion and his wife looked beautiful in a blue off-the-shoulder gown.
But Deonna and Greg discovered they're going to be parents of a boy all the way back on November 1, when Greg was about to hit a ball with a golf club that would expose pink or blue color once launched into the air.

"Baby O's Gender Reveal was today! It went off without a hitch. The reveal was so much fun," Deonna captioned a video of Greg swinging his club at the time.
"Greggie knocked it out of the park with this one. Reveal to come... #TeamPink or #TeamBlue."
Deonna and Greg first announced they were expecting a baby together in September 2020.
"It's true, we're expanding our family!!" Deonna captioned an Instagram photo showing the couple holding a "Okotie Party of 3" sign that she posted shortly after Lifetime aired a Season 1 Married at First Sight: Couples Cam episode that concluded with Deonna receiving positive results of an at-home pregnancy test.

"What a blessing?! Thank you all for all of the well wishes and blessings on our family," she continued. "Yay! [Our dog] Sandy is going to be a big sister! #marriedatfirstsight #mafslifetime #teamparents #babyontheway #teamchocolateybaby."
Deonna and Greg were the third Married at First Sight: Couples Cam couple to be shown discovering they are expecting on Season 1 of Married at First Sight: Couples Cam.
Since the spinoff debuted in May 2020, Married at First Sight: Couples Cam has also documented pregnancy and birth stories for Danielle Bergman and husband Bobby Dodd as well as Ashley Petta and husband Anthony D'Amico.
In June 2020, Deonna and Greg reportedly told In Touch Weekly that they'd like to have "two to three kids."
Married At First Sight: Couples Cam, produced by Kinetic Content, premiered its second season earlier this month and currently airs on Thursday nights at 8PM ET/PT on Lifetime.
