A source close to the reality star told the magazine that Ronnie is "over the moon."

Jen shared a picture on her Instagram and thanked her friends and loved ones for being by their side during their journey. "We are so thankful to have such good friends and family to come support us and fly in from all over the country!" Jen wrote on Instagram. "Special thanks to @jennamarie018 my BFF for planning this for4 months @ally.kluth for helping her, @chas_face For bringing @smileboxlv That was so much fun we have the most amazing pics!"
