The couple, who met while playing love interests in Netflix's Roped, tied the knot in July 2019 after announcing their engagement at the end of 2018.
Following the couple's announcement this week, Josh and Lauren both appeared virtually on Access Hollywood to talk about their exciting baby news.
After showing off her baby bump, Lauren told the outlet that it has been the couple's "little secret for the last eight months."
"I have about six weeks left of the pregnancy, so we're almost there," she said.
Adding, "We actually were pregnant during the filming of A California Christmas," Josh began to chime in before his wife took over and quipped, "It happened during the filming of A California Christmas."
Lauren also noted that she is "so excited" to become a mom as it has been "one of my dreams since I was a little girl."
