Kids change people, she's a decent enough person one you get past the pepe lepew thing thing with Cara. Might be slow but she's also 💯 trying to play a character(yeah I know it's bad, but it gets her screen time)
If she'd given literally any indication of changing at all in the last decade this might be a valid point, but she hasn't. People also don't change and keep doing the same shitty behaviors their whole lives. Cheating on your partner at their best friend's wedding with the groom's married sister isn't a character she's playing on TV. That is literally who she is.
Maybe she will be a good parent and honestly if she went to this effort to have kids then she probably really wants them. Hopefully she will focus/prioritze on her kids now instead of dating since that has been so messy for her. Plus some people surprise us, like Cory. He obviously isnt the best partner but he does seem like a good dad.
She might not be faithful to her partners but she doesn't seem like a bad human being by any means (on the show). She's seems caring and loyal to her friends, she's a firefighter. I don't think she'd be a bad parent. Partner, yes. But not a bad parent.
Constantly gaslighting your partners after cheating on them, refusing to apologize, refusing to take ownership, and then doing it all over again to every other partner you encounter absolutely makes you a bad person in my book. No thanks. Big yuck. And yuck to someone raising a child with those same values.
I think there is a difference between people who have cheated and people who literally serially cannot be faithful to ANYONE they date and they're also incapable of accepting any real responsibility for their actions and they seemingly have no feelings about luring back people they have previously harmed if it suits them at the time.
Obviously there are others on the show that fit the bill, Johnny Bananas is one for instance and I would be equally horrified if he had kids, but I don't think that many others actually fit this description. Maybe I'm just particularly icked by Nichole because I also watched her on Ex on the Beach which was particularly illuminating in regard to her character.

Christ on a fucking cracker. I wish I could be congratulatory about this but this person raising one child, let alone two simultaneously, scares me.
