OITNB Star Danielle Brooks Announces She's Pregnant with 1st Child

Danielle Brooks announces she's pregnant and even reveals how far along she is. The 29-year-old who began dating her boyfriend in February is "elated" to share the good news.

Things are moving pretty fast in Danielle Brooks’ life these days. After flaunting her new romance back in February, she now reveals she’s pregnant with her first child.

"HAPPILY PREGNANT"

An ecstatic Danielle took to her Instagram to share the joyful news to her followers.

“So elated to finally share this news with you all. I’m happily pregnant!” the “Orange is the New Black” star writes though her pic holding a pregnancy test says it all. She’s beaming as she shows off the message on her Clear Blue test that reads, “pregnant.”

On Valentine’s Day, she signaled the end of her dateless period when she showed off her boyfriend on Instagram.

NO LONGER SINGLE

The 29-year-old has been in a state of bliss since forging a relationship with the father of her soon-to-be first child. On Valentine’s Day, she signaled the end of her dateless period when she showed off her boyfriend on Instagram.

“What I’ve always imagined love to feel like…” she wrote to accompany a photo of her kissing her man. She didn’t give his name but she referred to him as “D” in another post featuring their go-cart date.

Life wasn’t as colorful for Danielle back in 2017 when she admitted to Page 6 that her “dating game is slow.”

A NEW CHAPTER BEGINS

According to an Instagram story where Danielle reveals her baby bump, she’s already “five months in.”

“When one chapter ends, another begins,” she adds. "Super excited to share with you my new beginning. I’M PREGNANT. Counting my blessings.”

"People have a lot of hang ups that will make them guarded, but continue to operate out of love. It will always win.”

WHEN DATING WAS SLOW

Life wasn’t as colorful for Danielle back in 2017 when she admitted to Page 6 that her “dating game is slow.”

“I know that I am on TV, and you think that it would be better, but I do not know what I am putting off. I am still single,” she told the publication.

However, she was very optimistic that love will come when she penned an essay for Refinery29 that same year.

“You have a lot of love to give and believe it or not, it is not as easily accessible for others to give the same. People have a lot of hang ups that will make them guarded, but continue to operate out of love. It will always win.”

Danielle’s positivity paid off seeing how bright and shiny her future seems to be. We’re definitely looking forward to more news about her pregnancy in the coming months.

ANOTHER STAR MAY OR MAY NOT CONFIRM SHE'S PREGNANT

As Danielle spills about her pregnancy, fans of Kylie Jenner are still waiting for confirmation of rumors swirling that she’s expecting baby number two. The mill started churning speculation after a video from Khloe Kardashian’s recent birthday bash accidentally recorded someone revealing she’s pregnant. Everyone’s guess is Kylie who previously expressed interest in having another child with her boyfriend, Travis Scott.

If the lipstick mogul is indeed pregnant again, we’re not sure she’ll ever confirm the news considering she kept her first pregnancy a secret until she gave birth. However, since she's been vocal about wanting another child, maybe she’ll divulge this time if the rumor is actually true.
