On Sunday, June, 21, the Summer House alum, 37, and her boyfriend Eoin Heavey announced that they had welcomed their first baby — a boy — 10 weeks early.
The announcement on Instagram came on Father’s Day, just over a month after the couple revealed that they were expecting.
Heavy, who stars on Bravo’s Summer House spinoff In The City alongside Olivera, shared the news alongside a photo of a bouquet of flowers and a beer glass reading, ‘Promoted to Dad.’
The following slide went on to reveal their baby boy’s name and shared that he will spend his first two to three months in “summer camp at NICU.”

“Aidan Santos Heavey born June 21, 2026 – 10 weeks early – longest day of the year both solstice wise and for mom and dad,” Heavey wrote. “He’s heading to summer camp at NICU for the first 2/3 months in this world but mom and dad can’t wait to bring him home hopefully soon.”
Heavey then shared the meaning behind their baby boy’s Irish name, adding, “Fitting for his mom, Aidan translates to ‘fiery one’ or ‘bringer of fire’ and she was nothing short of amazing after getting contractions at 10pm on Friday, going to [the] emergency room at 3am in Southampton, then getting transferred by ambulance to Stony brook for a further 24 hours.”
Thanking the “incredible’ staff at Stony Brook, Heavey added that he was a “nervous, terrified, sobbing mess” during the birth, but “couldn’t ask for a better first Father’s Day.”
The final slide of the carousel, a black-and-white snap, saw Olivera gazing down at Aidan and placing her hand into his isolette. Sharing the photo on her Instagram Stories, Olivera wrote, “Here early but safe and we couldn’t be happier ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.”

The post was set to The Verve’s “Lucky Man,” while Heavey captioned his carousel, “Promoted to Dad 🥹.”
Olivera also reposted the slide explaining Aidan’s name and early arrival and wrote on her Instagram Stories, “mum and dad! 😘😘 we got this!”
A number of the couple’s In The City costars sent their congratulations, including Andrea Denver and his wife Lexi Sundin, who exclusively shared with PEOPLE last week that they are expecting their first baby together.
“What a beautiful little fighter. Huge congratulations to you both brother on welcoming Aidan into the world,” wrote Denver. “Wishing him strength, health, and steady growth over the coming weeks, and sending so much admiration to Danielle for everything she went through. May the NICU days fly by and may you have him home in your arms before you know it. 💙🙏.”
Sundin added, “Sending you three so much love 🩵 We can’t wait to meet him 🙏🏻.”
Yvonne Najor, who also shared her pregnancy news with PEOPLE last month, wrote in the comments section, “Congrats! We can’t wait to meet you baby Aidan 🩵🩵🩵.”

The couple have been dating for a year. In January, they spoke to BravoTV.com about their relationship and shared how they first met.
"We met a long time ago," Heavey said. "We both moved to New York around the same time, kind of after college, and we would have overlapped a little bit in regards to friend groups or parties back then. And we did meet back then."
"But I moved, I was living down in Miami for the last year, and moved back up at the start of this year," he continued. "And we reconnected then. And it's been what, now it's been nine months? But it feels like it's going on five to ten years, which is a great feeling."
