Married At First Sight’s Booka Nile is welcoming her first child in a matter of weeks, but before the new family member arrives, they hosted a beautiful baby shower in Perth.
Booka, 33, shared photographs of the day on her Instagram page, including pictures of her friends while showing off her growing baby bump.

MAFS star Beck Zemek attended the Perth baby shower and was seen kissing Booka’s bump in one snap. She also welcomed her baby girl in June last year.
Booka wrote on social media, “Thank you so much to everyone who came and helped make today so special”.
“It made me realise that my little baby boy is going to be born into a world where he is so loved. Not just by his dad, but also by his devoted grandparents, his dedicated aunties and uncles and by all my amazing, beautiful friends.
“I feel so happy and at peace right now, I love you all. Thank you.”
Booka wasn’t successful in finding love when she was featured on MAFS. She confirmed the wonderful news that she was pregnant in September last year and explained that while the mystery man was excited to become parents, they don’t plan on being together as a couple.
“Motherhood was not something I ever thought id experience. It just didn’t feel like it could or would ever happen for me. My circumstances felt like they’d never be right…and to be honest they’re still not ‘right’. I don’t think they’ll ever be ‘right’ but my baby boy does not really give a f— about that haha.
“Against all odds he has made himself a little home inside my belly and is growing bigger and stronger every day,” she said in a caption.

“His dad and I were very very shocked to find out that we’d made a little life by accident and that he had taken up residency in my uterus,” the post continued.
“But after giving it a lot of thought we realised we wanted to be his mum and dad, even though we aren’t together and have no plans to be. We’re working on becoming great friends and plan to co-parent together.
“Our only goal is that our son is loved and cared for by both of us and that he grows up knowing how loved he is by his mum and dad.”
Booka is due to give birth in April this year.
