It looks like Melissa Rycroft really has found her fairytale ending, and RadarOnline.com has details.
Rycroft - who was famously dumped by Bachelor Jason Mesnick on live television only to later find true love - is pregnant.
"It was a shock. We weren't even trying," Rycroft tells the brand new issue of US Weekly, which was first to report the news.

After being publicly humiliated by Mesnick, Rycroft, 27, rekindled her relationship with her ex-boyfriend, Tye Strickland, 29, an insurance agent.
They married last December.

The busy Rycroft also tells Us that having a baby was the last thing on her mind. "He wanted the kids right away, and I was laughing at him going, 'No, not ready!", she said.
"He's actually cried more than I have," she tells Us. "Tye is caring, he's funny. He's going to be a great dad."
