Reality TV star Arie Luyendyk Jr. is back at the doctor’s office — this time to schedule his second vasectomy — just two months after welcoming his fourth child with wife Lauren Burnham. The former Bachelor star shared the news with fans in a humorous Instagram video on Dec. 5, showing him calling a doctor’s office to book the procedure, captioned: “Making THAT call for the third time … Need a punch card.”

A Growing Family

Arie, 44, and Lauren, 34, welcomed their fourth child, Livvy Rowe, on Sept. 18, 2025. The couple also shares daughter Alessi, 6, and 4-year-old twins Senna and Lux. The Luyendyks married in January 2019, roughly 10 months after getting engaged on The Bachelor: After the Final Rose.

This upcoming vasectomy comes after a unique journey with family planning. Arie previously underwent a vasectomy in February 2022, following the birth of the twins. However, he reversed the procedure in July 2024 — a fact he revealed publicly in February 2025 — and the couple welcomed Livvy seven months later.

Why the Second Vasectomy?

In his Instagram video, Arie jokingly mimicked the sound of the procedure, saying “Snip snap, snip snap,” before giving a thumbs-up. He captioned the post, “She’s probably heard it a thousand times lol,” poking fun at the repetitive nature of scheduling the procedure.

In a YouTube video, Arie explained that he initially rushed into his first vasectomy: “Honestly, it’s more on me. I think having the twins was hard at first … And then I kind of remember a moment of watching Senna, and she’s like…all of our kids are the best age right now. And I just felt like, ‘Dang it, I think we could do this again.’”

Lauren echoed his sentiment, telling fans, “We said that we were done having kids like, I don’t know, a couple years ago. But I think we’re going to do it one more time.”

Family Planning Journey

The couple’s path to their fourth child wasn’t without challenges. In March 2025, Lauren shared that she had experienced a chemical pregnancy before conceiving Livvy, explaining that “I’ve never had a chemical pregnancy before, so I thought that was it.” Later that month, the couple announced they were expecting another baby girl, celebrating with a gender reveal featuring their three older children and a cake filled with pink icing.
