Schroeder spoke about her pregnancy plans on theVanderpump Rules After Showback in April.

“This summer — before I knew I was going to be proposed to — yes. I know Beau is my person and the man I want to be with and I want to have a family with, and I’m not going to sit around and wait for him to propose to me for me to do the things that I want to do with him,” she said at the time.

“I’m not tricking him into a pregnancy,” she added. “He was an active part of the conversation and participating. So, like, he knew what was going on, but I’m like, ‘Okay, I’m going to take matters into my own hands. I can’t wait to be a mom, then let’s just start doing this because I’m not waiting around for this anymore.’ "
