Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s Melissa Fumero announces she is expecting her second child

Huge congrats.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine's Melissa Fumero has announced she is expecting her second child. The actress, who plays Amy Santiago on the comedy series, took to Instagram over the weekend to share a photo of her bump.

"Oh yeah, I’m hella pregnant," she wrote, before revealing that she had been reluctant to share the news of her pregnancy. "To be honest, I haven’t felt like posting about it because this pregnancy has been way harder and… I don’t feel that cute? But yesterday I got a really intense massage, an awesome chiropractic adjustment, and my hair feels thicker… so I feel a little bit cute today."

The news comes as it was announced Brooklyn Nine-Nine had been renewed for a season eight - months before season seven had even premiered. In a behind-the-scenes video shared on Brooklyn's Twitter account, the cast could be seen celebrating as they found out the news.
