Abbott welcomed her baby boy at 11:28 p.m. in South Carolina. Talking exclusively with ET, Christmas told,
My family has a history of strong and unique names so I wanted to follow suit. I chose his first name Loyal because I believe it will guide him to have strong integrity through his life. It's a reminder that family comes first, which is why it is his first name.
She added,
I chose his second name Atticus from the Greek educator and philosopher to embrace balance and fairness through understanding. Neither is a family name, but I hope he will embrace his name as his own and follow the greatness he can bring to this world through love, understanding and fair action.
Later, the reality star took to her Instagram to announce the arrival of her first son where she shared the first snap of her newborn sleeping on her chest. "Please meet Mr. Loyal Atticus Abbott!" captioned Abbott her post.

"Well, I've always expected the unexpected in my life and this year is no different! In January I discovered I am actually EXPECTING," wrote Abbott in a separate post.
Later, Abbott shared a snap of her and her beau from the sonography session. Abbott wrote "I'm 11 weeks today and am still in shock and awe of this transformation in my life," alongside the post.
Abbott competed in the 19th season of the CBS reality series in 2017 where she came third behind Josh Martinez and runner-up Paul Abrahamian. Before she conceived her first child, she had told that she was willing to explore a romantic relationship with Abrahamian outside of the house.
