Bliss Poureetezadi-Goytowski and Zack Goytowski, known for their roles on the popular Netflix series *Love Is Blind*, have recently expanded their family with the birth of their second child, a baby boy named Polaris J³ohn Pax. The couple, who first captured audiences’ hearts during Season 4 of the show, became parents for the first time when their daughter, Galileo Terri Rayne, was born in April 2024. With the arrival of Polaris in June 2026, their family journey continues to grow.

The couple’s relationship blossomed on the reality show, culminating in their marriage in 2022. Bliss and Zack openly expressed their eagerness to start a family shortly after their wedding. In an interview with *PEOPLE* magazine, they revealed their excitement over impending parenthood, with Bliss stating, “It’s not too far in the future,” while Zack remarked, “Our children are going to be the luckiest kids in the world.”
Galileo, who arrived on April 26, 2024, quickly became the apple of her parents’ eyes. In the weeks following her birth, Bliss and Zack didn’t hold back their feelings, describing their daughter as “precious” and “beautiful,” saying, “We are forever changed and are so blessed to spend the rest of our lives loving her.” The couple later received heartfelt gifts from friends, including a hand-sewn outfit for Galileo from country music star Lee Ann Womack, who personally crafted the item as a gesture of love.
Despite the joy of new parenthood, Bliss has been candid about the challenges she faced, particularly concerning postpartum depression. On her podcast, *Blind Love with Zack & Bliss*, she shared how the condition caught her off guard, pushing her into a state of “survival mode.” With the reality of sleep deprivation and the hurdles of breastfeeding, Bliss initially tried to navigate her struggles without assistance but eventually sought help and started medication to reclaim her mental balance.
Reflecting on her journey, Bliss expressed profound gratitude to her daughter for her resilience during tough times: “She saved me. She really did. I am still here because of her,” she said. This experience seems to have fortified the couple’s bond and love for their growing family.
The arrival of Polaris on June 29, 2026, marked another milestone in their family life. The couple shared their joy via *PEOPLE*, stating, “We are overjoyed to share that our sweet baby boy has arrived. Our world has yet again shifted, changed, expanded, and become even more magical.” Both Bliss and Zack revelled in the idea that their hearts had “doubled in size” with the birth of their son.
The unique middle name of their son holds special significance, as it pays tribute to family lineage. Bliss and Zack shared that Polaris’s middle name, J³ohn, represents three important figures: Zack’s grandfather, John; Bliss’s twin brother; and Zack’s grandmother, Jean. This thoughtful naming choice highlights the couple’s commitment to family values and their desire to honour those who came before them.
As Bliss and Zack embrace their new roles as parents of two, they are buoyed by the bond forming between their children. A month after Polaris’s birth, the couple remarked on how well their daughter Galileo had taken to her new sibling, describing her as “the best big sister” and expressing excitement for their journey as a family of four.
With each passing day, the couple navigates the ups and downs of parenthood, finding strength and joy in their shared experiences. As they continue to grow together as individuals and as a family, their story serves as a testament to the enduring power of love, connection, and the importance of mental well-being in parenting.
