American Idol season 22 star Triston Harper and his new bride, Paris Reed, are expecting their first child together
“Iv got big news harpies❤️❤️😘,” Harper, 16, wrote alongside a Wednesday, November 6, Facebook update announcing that he had tied the knot with his girlfriend, Paris Reed. Two days later, his mother, Hattie Mae Sullivan, revealed that the couple are expecting their first child together by sharing a selfie they took with a positive pregnancy test.
American Idol fans were introduced to Harper on season 22 of the ABC singing competition series, which aired earlier this year. The Alabama native wowed judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie with his impressive audition, as well as the story of his difficult childhood. He added: “I never thought I’d be able to tell my story to American Idol, ever. It makes me happy just thinking about it.”
The judges brought his mother in to receive the good news that he would be moving on to the Hollywood round of competition. He made his way through the competition to become one of the show’s top five contestants, but was eliminated alongside Emmy Russell in May. He released his debut single, “H.O.P.E.,” later that month.
