Nigerian-American actress, Uzo Aduba has revealed she’s expecting her first child with husband Robert Sweeting.
The 42-year-old disclosed the exciting news on the 2023 Tony Awards red carpet on Sunday, June 11.
The actress, who rocked an orange Christian Siriano, unbuttoning her coat to reveal her baby bump, confirmed the news to People on the Tony Awards red carpet on Sunday evening, while a rep also confirmed she’s expecting.
‘The happy couple is over the moon about their growing family and are excited to be parents,’ an unnamed insider said.
She cradled her baby bump over the oversized matching orange pants on the red carpet.
The Orange is the New Black star accessorized with David Webb jewlery, Alexandre Birman shoes and a Judith Leiber clutch.
She later announced her baby joy on Instagram, writing: ‘What a blessing. My husband Robert and I are so happy to enter this next chapter together as parents. I am beyond excited. I get to be someone’s Mommy! I know as the three of us continue to grow, our only, ONLY goal will be to love you, little one. My goodness. Look what God has done. ‘
Back in September 2021, it was confirmed that Aduba and Robert Sweeting quietly tied the knot back in a secret New York ceremony in 2020.
