Jesse, the show's host, confessed that he wasn't sure he'd be able to attend the December 4 wedding because his wife, Emely, is due to give birth at any time. He stated that he was aware that Emely was watching from home and instructed her to call him if she required his assistance.

"Please call me if you need anything!" Jesse told Emely.

Fans on X couldn't help but share their concerns as they write, "Let Kris Jenner host and let Jesse Palmer go be with his impending baby!!!"  While another user chimed in, "Jesse is NOTTTT potentially missing the birth of his child for this wedding."
