Country Dancer Surprises Husband With Pregnancy Reveal

A country dancer came up with the perfect way to reveal her pregnancy news to her husband – by pulling out a positive test during the final dip in their performance. Efisio Girodanelli froze in complete shock as his wife, Donielle, pulled out the test on the dance floor, initially asking "What is that?!" before the realization hit. Four days earlier, Donielle, 34, had taken the test, but when Efisio, 31, had asked her the result, his wife had said it was negative – wanting to plan a bigger surprise for her husband. They had been trying to start a family for two years and had seen a fertility doctor, with plans to start IVF treatment in November, but had never given up hope. The pair share a love for country dance, and so Donielle spoke to The Maverick, a venue in Tuscon, Arizona, to ask if someone could record her grand reveal. After a videographer dropped out, Donielle's friend agreed to help, and the 34-year-old picked a song Efosio would not find suspicious. On August 6, the couple danced to one song before the track Donielle had selected started playing.
