One of our favorite things about each new year is all the pregnancy announcements. Of course, they trail just behind our endless love for birth announcements, but it’s always so exciting to hear a bundle of joy is on the way. Whether there’s a whole lot of pomp and circumstance or a simple Instagram post, it’s always interesting to see how our favorite celebrities decide to share the news that they are expanding their family.
Last year, we saw some priceless pregnancy announcements. Buckingham Palace announced that Princess Beatrice is expecting, Eminem’s daughter Hailie Jade surprised her dad with the news while filming a music video, and Andie MacDowell’s daughter Rainey Qualley had a hilarious (if risqué) announcement. Brittany Mahomes brought a tear to our eye with her behind-the-scenes footage from a photo shoot with the First Family of Football showing off sonogram photos. And Kylie Kelce brought a whole lot of tears to her daughter Bennett’s eyes. The youngest Kelce girl is nowhere near as excited about getting a baby sister as the rest of the world is for the family.
And now we’re just itching to see what’s in store for this year. Below, is a list of our favorite famous figures who announced in 2025 that they’re expecting a new addition to their family. Congratulations!
