Nichole Wood, a former contestant on The Bachelor, announced that the father of her child, Jake Wood, remains in critical condition following his recent hospitalization.
Recent Instagram Revelation
The 31-year-old reality TV personality shared the update on Instagram this week, stating she learned of the situation just hours earlier. “Hi everyone, I’m getting a lot of messages in regards to my child’s father,” she wrote. “I’ve just found out a couple hours ago myself and am still processing this information. I also don’t know much. [I] just know he’s in critical condition. I hope he does make a recovery and can get his life on track.”
Relationship Background
Wood and Jake Wood welcomed daughter Bohdi Leigh Yard in November 2020 before parting ways in 2021. Fans first noticed the permanent split in June 2021 when Wood moved out of their Gold Coast home with their daughter.
In Instagram Stories at the time, she detailed multiple issues leading to the breakup, noting the couple had separated three times previously. She recalled Jake Wood once calling her his “best friend” and saying he “couldn’t live without her.” Posts included images of smiling Bohdi, captioned “I will always keep you safe baby girl,” and a plea for housing: “Looking for a place for us two. Hola.”
Pregnancy Split Details
The pair initially split in November 2020, when Wood was 39 weeks pregnant. She described the ordeal on Instagram as “pretty s**t” and “another f***ing level of f***ed up.” Assuring followers she was coping, she added, “Just want to jump on and tell everyone that I’m in this situation and am okay as I can be, and thanks for all the messages.”
Residing at her parents’ home days before labor, she shared a sonogram with the caption: “I’m so glad that at least out of this I have you baby girl. Just you and me.” She later confirmed, “Bubs and I are doing great, will post a photo of her soon.”
Bachelor Appearance
Wood gained attention during Matt Agnew’s 2019 season of The Bachelor, reaching the tenth episode. She memorably arrived on a motorcycle for their first meeting.
