Gabourey Sidibe, 40, the star of Precious, shocked attendees at an event in Los Angeles on Tuesday by disclosing that she and her husband, Brandon Frankel, are expecting twins.
The pair, who married privately in March 2021, showed off Sidibe’s burgeoning baby bulge while attending a Babylist event in Beverly Hills.
She wore a vivid pink sweater dress that highlighted her expanding pregnancy, and Frankel lovingly hugged her waist.
The couple was seen picking out gorgeous items for their baby registry, which included outfits, a double stroller, and a baby carrier.
She turned to Instagram to express her delight over the news, emphasizing their cats’ new responsibilities in the caption: “I’m pregnant! We thought it was time to give our cats some responsibility so we’re giving them each a baby to take care of!”
Fans were astonished when the singer revealed both her secret marriage to Frankel and her pregnancy with twins.
The declaration came during Sidibe’s visit on Live With Kelly and Ryan in 2022, during which she revealed her dislike for weddings.
Kelly Ripa began the interview by admitting her involvement during the pandemic.
