Kristen Doute Just Hit Another Pregnancy "Milestone"
The Valley cast member also revealed how her fiancé, Luke Broderick, is preparing for baby No. 1.
There’s been a development in Kristen Doute’s pregnancy journey.
On Wednesday, January 29, The Valley cast member shared a quick update on her second trimester and revealed how her physical changes were affecting her mobility. She demonstrated this in an Instagram Story that showed her sitting on a dining room chair while struggling to keep one leg over the other.
“Also, new milestone!” she captioned the video, which featured her adorable Yorkie, Gibson. “Crossing my legs is not as simple as it used to be.”
Kristen shares a baby bump update: "When did this happen?"
Several hours later, Kristen returned to social media to provide another look at her baby bump, saying it was noticeably larger than the day before.
“When did that happen?” she asked while filming herself in the mirror. “It feels bigger today. It’s kind of in the way of things, walking on the treadmill (i have a desk thing on the treadmill).”
Kristen and Luke Broderick reveal the sex of baby No. 1
Kristen and her fiancé, Luke Broderick, announced the pregnancy in November 2024, nearly three months after they got engaged. The couple, who also secured a new home last year, have since confirmed they’re having a girl and will welcome the addition sometime in June.
Kristen and Luke spoke about their new chapter in a December 2024 interview with Us Weekly, admitting they were both convinced they were having a boy.
“I guessed wrong 100 percent of the time when it came to my friends’ pregnancies and not shockingly, I wasn’t right for mine either,” Kristen said about the baby’s sex. “Luke was made to be a girl dad.”
Kristen told the outlet she and Luke had their baby's name picked out "for a while" but declined to provide any hints. She also revealed she had an idea for a “nursery theme” but had yet to make any final decisions.
“It was always going to be neutral with pops of our chosen accent colors; cozy and a little bit boho,” she said about the baby’s room.
How is Luke preparing for his family addition?
While Kristen begins her nesting phase, Luke has also been preparing for his bundle of joy. On Thursday, January 31, Kristen posted a photo of a new self-help book Luke was reading.
“We’re Pregnant! The First-Time Dad’s Pregnancy Handbook,” the book was titled.
