Shah’s of Sunset’s MJ And Tommy Are Having A Boy!

October 8, 2018 by tamaratattles 25 Comments

MJ and Tommy are finally talking about the child they are expecting! It’s a boy! I feel like that chose to have a boy in honor of her father. “I’m hoping that my baby will remind me of my father and, of course, have a piece of Tommy and me,” MJ told E! exclusively. “It’s the cycle of life.”

The prospective parents are both going under a major transformation in preparation for the big event. Mercedeh says they are both focused on eating “really clean super foods that are going to nurture the baby.”

So far the pregnancy hasn’t been a very difficult one. “I’m very lucky I don’t have morning sickness, food cravings or fatigue,” she said.

Of course all pregnant moms get more advice than they ever wanted. MJ says,  “The best advice I’ve gotten is to really enjoy the process and be happy. So if you’re happy, the baby’s happy. Just give it positive energy. Laugh a lot, and just start to nurture it from the outside.”

Tommy is being kept busy baby proofing the house and helping to get the nursery ready for the big day. Mercedeh wants a huge shower where all of her friends and family can come together and celebrate life.

MJ doesn’t say when the baby is due, but my sources say she found out at the end of August, so I’m hoping for an early to mid June baby!  They also are keeping mum on potential names for the baby saying only that they definitely want to carry on the Persian tradition as well as the Irish tradition. MJ’s father’s name was Shams din Javid.  Din or al-din means faith or of faith/religion so I’m going to suggest Aldin as a boy’s name.  I think Tommy’s middle name is Jay. They could name the boy Thomas Javid and call him TJ. Or Aldin Jay and call him AJ. I have more suggestions if MJ is interested. LOL.

Congratulations again to the proud parents to be!

    I love almost any pregnancy announcement but this one is especially heartwarming. Especially after watching the Passport Edition this week. They seemed such an an odd couple to me at first but now I think they complement each other so well and truly seem to exhibit unconditional love.

    Question: is there a reason you (and I believe also Shams) call(ed) her Mercedeh instead of Mercedes?

      Her name is Mercedeh, not Mercedes.
      Now, I don’t know whether or not Mercedeh is the ‘Persian version’ of Mercedes (like Marie is the French version of Mary), but MJ’s name is definitely Mercedeh.

        Mercedeh was told to go by Mercedes for the show. I know, it’s ridiculous. I’m not sure if she went by MJ at all before the show but you will here most of the cast refer to her as Mercedeh or Mer (pronouced like Mare) or MJ never Mercedes.

          Oh my goodness that IS ridiculous!! Thank you very much for the explanation; it explains long running confusion for me. Until I saw you actually write it out in this seasons’ recaps, I always thought I was a little nutty hearing it that way. Then when she was crying in the bridal dressing room, Mike made a comment about Shams looking down on her saying, “I love you, MJ” and she corrected him saying, “Mercedeh”. But, yes, the reason I though that it was Mercedes to begin with was the show. They’ve written it on screen in reference to her several times & whenever Bravo writes about her in articles or social media it’s “Mercedes Javid”. So, again, thank you, Tamara for the explanation! I’ve always thought Mercedes was a beautiful name but I much prefer her true spelling. It’s almost an insult to her culture and, more importantly, parents to have her change it. But definitely just downright ridiculous, as you said.

            Yep, All her social media as Mercedes is just for the show and not her “real one” although at some point I think it just got easier to use the Mercedes one. I don’t think she minds. “Mercedes” makes a lot of money. 🙂

            Ha ha! Just to let you know how stupid I am, I haven’t paid attention to the social media for this show and had no idea they refer to her as Mercedes. I watch ths show & I read about it here (it’s the only site that does it justice IMO). So ive always only thought of her as MJ or Mercedeh, never Mercedes. So when I read your question it seemed completely out of left field! I was like –why would Tamara call her Mercedes? LOL

          Even “merce” with an accent, sometimes too. Asa would call her that. I think Mercedeh is a lovely name, much nicer than “mercedes”.

          Very happy for the two of them. Vida as a grandmother, oh lord lol

            Just a few months after I started this blog, I got to interview the Shahs. The show had not even started yet and I was obsessed with the concept. You might like to read that interview here,

            http://tamaratattles.com/2012/02/23/shahs-of-sunset-meet-mercedeh-javid/

            This was before Bravo explained to them that they had control over who they could interview with and so I got to ask whatever I wanted and they gave very truthful answers. It’s also before I decided not to do interviews. LOL. Reza and I had a falling out and for the longest time I felt uncomfortable blogging in um….my particular straightforward manner… since I felt like I knew all of them. I actually started talking to Reza because I called him a “sockless wonder” or something before the show started because he had already gotten into some trouble. 🙂

              that was awesome! I’m going to go back and read the other interviews too (with the rest of the cast). I can’t believe it started airing in 2012, wow, I didn’t realize how long they’d already been on 🙂

              That was a great & insightful interview as to what the concept of the show actually was. I didn’t start tuning in until the end of the 2nd season and just kind of thought it was about rich Persians. Not totally off base but not exactly accurate of the intent either.

              I want to say, I’ve been a reader for a few years now and always wanted to comment because literally no one in my life watches reality tv, but I’ve always been afraid to say the “wrong” thing & get sent to the WLS. A couple of weeks ago I thoroughly reviewed the Commenting Rules and began to dabble in leaving remarks. This is the first back-and-forth exchange we’ve had and it’s been lovely, informative, and helpful. Just wanted to say thank you for having me.

    So happy for them both you read the other sites and the comments are disgusting. So nice to come to a site where people post decent comments. I know she made very derogatory comments to Asa which I will not repeat but at the end of the day I think she was consumed with jelousy and fear. Good luck MJ hope you have a great experience and birth

      I would hope now that MJ is in the same place that Asa was being pregnant and happy, that she understands how vile she was to Asa. I don’t think they will ever be friends again. Not after what a pig MJ was, but being a mother might give her insight to way Asa was upset that MJ kept calling her son a bastard. We all know MJ wasn’t saying to be linguistically correct, she meant it as a dig. I can’t stand MJ, but I love Tommy. I wish them both well.

        I hope so too. I love MJ, she has been very kind to me on social media a few times, and I was really hurt by her comments (as a single mum). I think ultimately, she will apologise to Asa and Soltan.

    Watching the Passport Edition was very poignant. Seeing MJ in such despair after realizing that she wanted to have a baby after we knew she was married and pregnant was great. But seeing how close she and Asa seemed to be at the time and where they are now was very sad.

    So happy for MJ and Tommy on their baby boy!

    But T I think your math may be a little off projecting a June due date for MJ.

    I conceived in mid-September 2017 and though my baby came early, my due date was in the first week of June 2018.
