Jenna Compono and Zach Nichols’ family is officially a squad of six!
On Sunday, Aug. 10, Compono, 32, announced the birth of The Challenge stars’ fourth child on Instagram. “🎀 I’d like to introduce Miss Francesca (Frankie) Rose Nichols 🎀,” she wrote, before sharing the newborn’s stats.
Frankie made her arrival at 4 a.m. on Sunday morning and weighed in at 7 lbs., 4 oz. She was 20 inches long.
The proud mom shared a photo of her tiny new daughter sleeping in a bassinet in a cream knit outfit decorated with ruffles. The baby also wore a matching hat with a bow.
A second snapshot showed Compono sitting in a chair at the hospital, holding a swaddled Frankie. Nichols, 37, can be seen standing and pointing to a calendar on the wall featuring paper footprints with the names of the babies born at the hospital that day.

Nurys Mateo commented: “She’s so precious 🥹 congrats you two ❤️🙏🏽.”
Little Frankie joins siblings Carmella Jean, 17 months, Liliana Marie, 2, and Anthony Joseph, 3.
Compono announced her latest pregnancy on Jan. 25, sharing a photo on Instagram of her and Nichols’ older three kids sitting on the floor, in order of their ages, under balloons that read “1,” “2,” and “3.”

Under the “4” balloon was a sonogram picture of baby No. 4, along with a sign that said “Coming Soon.”
“Because 3 kids wasn’t chaotic enough 🤣,” Compono wrote in the post’s caption. “Baby #4 coming August 2025 👶🏻♥️.”
Prior to Frankie’s birth, Compono shared a funny, behind-the-scenes look at the delivery. She posted a photo on her Instagram Stories of Nichols sleeping face down on a recliner in the hospital room, with his legs dangling off the end of it.

In a sweet Instagram post on July 21, Compono reflected on how things would soon be changing in their family with the addition of a new member.
“In two weeks, everything changes again. But if these three have taught me anything, it’s that there’s always room for more love ♥️,” she wrote, alongside a photo of Carmella, Liliana and Anthony posing together at a playground.
“People say you don’t really notice anymore kids after 3… I’ll keep you guys posted on that 🤣😅,” she added.
