Sophia Grace Announces That She's Expecting Her First Baby

In the video, she's surrounded by pink and blue balloons as she explains why she decided to wait until now to announce her pregnancy. "I am here to tell you guys that I am pregnant. So I am 21 weeks today, and the reason why I left it so long is because I always want to make sure that everything's completely fine and that everything's safe," she said. "So I decided to wait till this time to tell everyone because I thought that 20 weeks is like definitely safe and I have my 20-week scan and everything was fine, thank God."

Sophia Grace Knows The Baby's Gender But Will Announce That Later

"I actually know the gender because I actually found out but I am going to do a gender reveal for you guys in a separate video to this one so you can expect to see that soon on my channel," she said. "The baby is currently the size of a banana which is quite funny because a banana isn't even that small." She said her belly isn't too big just yet, and she's halfway through the pregnancy already.

Brownlee is using this video as an opportunity to let her fans in on her pregnancy journey from this point moving forward. "So I thought I would just start from sort of the beginning till now, you guys, so the first thing that happened is when I was eight weeks, I decided to do the sneak peek early gender test," she said. "I can confirm that it was done right because I've now had my 20-week scan and they also confirmed to me what the gender was and it was correct." She went on to explain that she had a 12-week scan as well and held up a photo of the ultrasound.
