Love Is Blind’s Bartise Bowden celebrates first Father’s Day with his adorable son Hayden.
The reality star posted a picture of himself, his own father, and the two-month-old baby on Instagram, simply captioning it, “Happy Father’s Day.”
The Dallas native proudly posted a carousel of images and video, introducing little Hayden to the world, letting everyone know that even though he was the reality show villain, he is definitely going to play the role of hero in his son’s life.
“Might’ve been the villain on tv, but I’m gonna be the hero for him. Instagram, meet my little man.”
The 27-year-old new father also appeared in a video with his newborn, during Love Is Blind‘s live season 4 reunion two months ago.
“This is my son Hayden,” Bowden said in the video, sharing both his son and his son’s name with fans for the first time. “He’s also a massive fan of the Love Is Blind franchise.”
He quickly added, stating that Hayden, “has not watched daddy’s season, and he will not ever watch daddy’s season, hopefully.”
So, just who is Hayden’s mom? Well, the Perfect Match reality star explained on a recent episode of his Talk’R podcast, that the reason for not revealing Hayden’s mother is that he wanted to keep everything “private because it was the safest for everyone involved.”
“I wish the public had a little bit more of an appreciation for people’s private life,” Bowden said. “There’s a difference between privacy and secrecy.”
He continued saying, “I wanted to keep my private life as private as I need it to be or I needed it to be for my son and for my baby mama and for everybody involved in my whole circle.”
Bowden is currently in a relationship, though not with his baby’s mother. The senior analyst at VMG Health in Dallas says that he and Hayden’s mother are “…friends. I say this all the time, ‘We’re single parenting and co-parenting all the time.”
