In April, the Big Brother Celebrity contestant explained that she had been feeling very ill as part of her pregnancy.
She said: ‘I’ve been eating my three meals a day because before, I would just eat one huge dinner and snack throughout the day. I know that’s not good for the baby.’
“I haven’t been feeling very well and all that. It’s been a roller coaster ride, but everything has turned out well,” he added.
Hugging her baby bump while cooking chicken and vegetable soup, the TV personality said they are very excited about the pregnancy and glad they don’t have to keep their baby a secret.
Megan said they won’t be participating in the modern gender reveal ritual because they believe there are rarely surprises like a baby reveal.
She said: “We are very excited but we have decided that we are not going to reveal the gender. We are going to wait and be surprised because I think you never come across a surprise like this in life.”
Previously, she enjoyed a sweet potato with gluten-free fried chicken, feta cheese, pickles, homemade ranch sauce, pomegranates and crispy fried shallots on top and shared the recipe with her Instagram followers.
She wrote: “The most delicious and messy dish you’ve ever seen. Also, 31 weeks pregnant in this heat, RIGHT? I asked a few questions about baby essentials. Can you help me? Thanks.”
