After the season finale of “Dancing With the Stars,” Wayne Brady and Witney Carson went onto “Good Morning America” to discuss this past season of the reality competition show. While there, Carson opened up about her second pregnancy and what it was like trying to hide it from everyone on the show.

“[Wayne] is really nice and I could always just lean on him for anything,” Carson told the hosts of “Good Morning America.” “He was like one of the first people to know I was pregnant, so he really looked out for me. He’s like a big brother.”

The 29-year-old also revealed how hard it was to keep her pregnancy a secret from everyone, especially because she has been struggling with morning sickness. “It was really hard to keep it from people who were around me a lot because I was really sick, so I would have to go and throw up here and there,” Carson continued to explain.

“So Wayne was one of the first people to know, and I think just besides the nausea, just trying to hide the bump, it’s my second kid so my showing a lot more,” she concluded.
