Keke Palmer is pregnant!
The Nope actor hosted Saturday Night Live over the weekend – and shared the news in the best way during her opening monologue.
“There’s some rumours going around, people have been in my comments saying, ‘Keke’s having a baby, Keke’s pregnant,’ and I wanna set the record straight — I am!” she said before ripping open her blazer to reveal her growing baby bump.
“Even though some people feel a little weird about me having a baby cause I was a child actor, I just wanna say, look, I’m 29, I’m grown, I have sex, I own a home, I stormed the Capitol on January 6, you know? Things adults do.”

She added: “I gotta say, though, it is bad when people on the internet spread rumours about you y’all, but it’s even worse when they’re correct. I mean, like, I was trying so hard to keep it on the down low, ’cause I got a lot of stuff going on, you know?”
The star said “this has been the biggest blessing”, and she’s “so excited”.
“Guys, I’m going to be a mom!”
Congratulations to the happy couple!
