In the clip shared on her account, Murgatroyd video-called her husband and let him know that she had been feeling nauseous while preparing two bottles of baby formula.
The TV personality later stated that she wanted to “move out of Malibu and get a bigger place” and told her husband that they needed “an extra bedroom.”
The media personality then showed her pregnancy tests to her husband, who admitted he was “in tears” at the news.
After saying they needed to find a new home, Murgatroyd ended the call after referring to her husband as a “father of three.”
The dancer gave her fans some context about the call in the caption of her post, where she recalled: ‘It took me an hour to get up the courage to call him… when he didn’t understand, we all couldn’t stop laughing in the kitchen.’
