Real Housewives Star Porsha Williams Reveals Sex Of First Child
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams is sharing new info about her pregnancy.
On Saturday, Oct. 27, 2018, the reality TV star took to social media to reveal that she and fiancé Dennis McKinley are expecting a baby girl.
"Can't believe we will know the sex of our baby tomorrow," Williams wrote to her 3.7 million Instagram followers in an emoji-filled post on Friday, Oct. 26. While sharing a series of sweet snapshots of the engaged pair, she asked, "What do y'all think girl or boy???? #Mommy & Daddy."
According to Entertainment Tonight, a number of fans flooded the post's comments section and correctly guessed the former. "#TeamGirl won! My little PJ is on her way!" Williams confirmed in another post the following day, captioning a video taken from the couple's gender reveal party, which featured pink confetti launched into the air. Alongside heart, prayer hands, and pink bow emojis, the expecting mom added the hashtags, "#GenderReveal #BabyMcKinley."
While later sharing another clip, which showed the exciting moment from another angle, the mom-to-be wrote, "Wow the shape of a heart ... Thank you all for all of your LOVE & support."
As Nicki Swift previously reported, Williams, 37, and McKinley, 38, first announced that they were expecting their first child together in mid-September 2018, just days before revealing their engagement on social media. At the time, Williams, who previously suffered a miscarriage, told People magazine that her pregnancy was "a dream come true." The Bravo star added, "The thought of me getting that blessing after praying for it for so long and getting that blessing with someone who is just as excited as me — it's Dennis' first child, just like me — and it's something we've both always wanted."
The soon-to-be-parents were first romantically linked in June 2018. After sharing their exciting baby news last month, it was believed that Williams had accidentally revealed her unborn child's sex on social media. In a comment left on one of beauty influencer Ming Lee's posts, which featured a photo of four babies sleeping underneath salon hair dryers, Williams wrote, "Omg I wish my baby was out !! I would have her right there getting done up lol" (via Us Weekly).
Also recently revealing the sex of her baby was fellow reality TV star Catelynn Lowell, who's expecting baby no. 3 with husband Tyler Baltierra in March 2019. "I was so shocked that it was a girl because I for sure thought it was a boy!" the Teen Mom OG star told Us Weekly in mid-October. Admitting that she wanted a boy "so badly," Lowell said, "I'm super excited it's a girl now. Since our miscarriage, I just am thankful to get another chance, and as long as it's healthy, that's all that matters!"
