When announcing her pregnancy, she told PEOPLE that she was both excited and nervous at the prospect of becoming a mother - which seems fair enough, yeah. "I’m excited to teach her how to be a woman in this world without worrying about judgement and give her the freedom to be the person that she wants to be,” she said. “Then getting to see that person come to life and grow and change their opinions. I’m excited to see this little human!” Such an exciting time for her!
