Reality television star Tyler Cameron and his fiancée, Tate Madden, shared a major family milestone during the October 20 episode of Dancing With the Stars. They announced they are expecting their first child together. The couple revealed they are having a baby girl at the conclusion of an emotional contemporary performance dedicated to mothers. This routine blended a tribute to Cameron’s late mother with news about their growing family.
Madden joined Cameron and professional dance partner Sharna Burgess on the ballroom floor during their routine to Ed Sheeran’s “Supermarket Flowers” for the show’s Dedication Night. Throughout the performance, a recorded voiceover by Cameron played, expressing a heartfelt message to his mother, Andrea, who passed away in 2020 following a brain aneurysm.
“Hey, mom, there’s so much I wish I could tell you,” Cameron said in the voiceover. “You would have loved the woman I’m going to marry. All the things that made you special, I found in her. She’s going to be the most incredible mama, just like you – and we’re going to have a baby.”
Live Gender Reveal on the Ballroom Floor
Following the routine, co-host Alfonso Ribeiro brought the celebration live to the ballroom floor for a gender reveal. Pink confetti rained down from the ceiling, confirming that Cameron and Madden are expecting a daughter. Judge Bruno Tonioli praised the performance, noting that the trio danced with “three hearts beating as one.” The routine ultimately earned Cameron and Burgess a score of 32 out of 40.
“This is incredible. I get to be her husband soon and the father of a beautiful baby,” Cameron said after the announcement, adding, “I get to be a girl dad, what a gift.”
A Relationship Built Away From the Spotlight
The pregnancy announcement arrives just two months after Cameron and Madden revealed their engagement in August. The pair shared a joint Instagram post featuring photos from a romantic proposal on Florida’s Little Palm Island beach, captioned, “Better late than never they say.”
The couple first crossed paths in 2022 when Madden worked as a photographer on the set of Cameron’s home renovation series, Going Home with Tyler Cameron. After keeping their romance private for months, Cameron confirmed they were dating and living together in late 2024. Throughout his current run on Season 35 of Dancing With the Stars, Madden has served as his primary support system, assisting him with choreography homework, stretching, and travel.
