Britney Spears is pregnant with her third child and is expecting her first baby with fiancé Sam Asghari.
The 40-year-old Baby One More Time hitmaker has announced the happy news on Instagram where she opened up about her weight gain before confusing fans by saying she’s “food pregnant.”
“I lost so much weight to go on my Maui trip only to gain it back. I thought ‘Geez … what happened to my stomach ???’ My husband said ‘No you’re food pregnant silly,’” Britney wrote in her viral post.
“So I got a pregnancy test … and uhhhhh well … I am having a baby … 4 days later I got a little more food pregnant. It’s growing!!!”
The singer went on to raise awareness about perinatal distress, a term used to describe depression and anxiety that some women experience during pregnancy and after childbirth.
“I have to say it is absolutely horrible,” Britney added.
“Women didn’t talk about it back then [when she was pregnant with her first two children]… some people considered it dangerous if a woman complained like that with a baby inside her but now women talk about it everyday … thank Jesus we don’t have to keep that pain a reserved proper secret.”
The singer signed off her post with heart emojis and promised to do yoga every day to stay in good shape.
Following Britney’s big reveal, the good news was also confirmed by her fiancé who is looking forward to becoming a father.
“Marriage and kids are a natural part of a strong relationship filled with love and respect,” Sam said.
“Fatherhood is something I have always looked forward to and I don’t take lightly. It is the most important job I will ever do.”
Congratulations to Britney and Sam!
