The former 'Glee' star shared the exciting news on Instagram with gorgeous photos from her maternity shoot.
Lea Michele is expecting her second child with husband Zandy Reich.
The former Glee star, accompanied by her husband and 3-year-old son, Ever, expressed their overwhelming happiness at the imminent arrival of their newest family member.
"Mommy, Daddy, and Ever are overjoyed. 💛," Michele captioned her Instagram post, which featured cute photos of her bare baby bump. The announcement marks another milestone in their journey as parents, with the couple already cherishing parenthood with Ever.
However, this journey to expand their family hasn't been without its challenges. Michele previously disclosed her struggles with conception for the second time. In March 2022, she candidly shared via Instagram Stories about her difficulties, emphasizing her faith in divine timing despite encountering heartbreaks along the way.
"Our journey bringing [our second baby] into this world was not easy, and we have had some heartbreaks already this time around,” she wrote, adding that she has “faith God will bring us another when the time is right."
During an Instagram Live session with Katherine Schwarzenegger in March 2021, Michele revealed that seven months after welcoming Ever, she grappled with doubts about continuing efforts to conceive their first child.
"I kept thinking, 'Maybe this isn’t meant to be for me. Maybe this isn’t going to happen.' It’s something that for me, personally, was always my biggest fear in my entire life. It’s what I’ve wanted more than anything," she shared with fans. "Emotionally, it just started to build and build… then we got pregnant."
The actress exchanged vows with Reich in a picturesque ceremony officiated by Glee creator Ryan Murphy in March 2019.
