Offset and Cardi B

After months of speculation, the Bodak Yellow rapper confirmed her pregnancy news in a very big way. All eyes were on her as she revealed her baby bump to the world while performing on Saturday Night Live on April 7. She wore a bodycon white gown for the special moment, a change from the ensembles she'd been wearing to keep her growing belly under wraps.

Soon after the entertainer revealed her secret, the official SNL Twitter sent her some love, tweeting: "Congratulations @iamcardib! #SNL." Following the instance, Cardi was met by a cheering crowd backstage. As seen in a video recorded by her friend @brooklyn.johnny, the ecstatic singer jumped up and down, shouting: "I'm finally free!"

Cardi is engaged to Offset, who also took to social media to address the moment. He thanked the couple's many fans, writing, "Thank you for all of your support [.] We feel so blessed."

This will be Cardi's first child with her fiancé, whom she became engaged to in October of 2017. Offset has three children from previous relationships.

Kate Hudson and Danny Fujisawa

It's a girl! Kate surprised all her fans when she revealed that she's not only pregnant with her third child, but also with her first baby girl. The actress took to Instagram to make the exciting reveal, captioning her sweet video, "If you've wondered why I've been so absent on my social channels it's because I have never been more sick! It's was the most sick first trimester of all my children. Boomerangs have made me nauseous, Superzoom is an easy way to have my head in the toilet, food instagrams make me queezy and thinking too much about insta stories made me even more exhausted than I already had been. If you've seen me out and about smiling and pretending like everything is amazing...I was lying!"

She continued: "BUT! I have broken through on the other end of that and rediscovering the joys of insta/snap. We have been trying to keep this pregnancy under the radar for as long as possible but I'm a poppin now! And it's too darn challenging to hide, and frankly hiding is more exhausting then just coming out with it! My kids, Danny, myself and the entire family are crazy excited! A little girl on the way."

He also praised his wife, adding: "And I say ‘beyond belief’ because some people are probably wondering if we’re out of our minds. Which we might very well be … but I couldn’t be more excited. Or grateful. Or in awe of @vanderkimberly"
