Over the last couple of weeks “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kenya Moore has been debuting her bun in the oven. Just this week, Moore released her bare belly to dispell the pregnancy rumors. While Porsha Williams has expressed the desire to get pregnant in the past, she’s not with child – it’s friend of the show Shamea Morton putting her baby bump on display.

Morton, whose wedding was covered on season 10 of the Bravo reality series, confirmed she and husband Gerald Mwangi were expecting their first child together in May. But on Saturday, June 9, Morton won tons of congratulatory messages for a photo with Mwangi caressing her belly.

“Sooo happy for the both of you, congratulations.”

“She confirmed this weeks ago! Congrats Love!! Can’t wait to see you slay this bump!”

“@shameamorton you are going to make a great mom ❤ Let me know if I need to fly to ATL to throw you an over the top, most unbelievable baby shower ever🎊.”

“Lovely !!!!🌷You should hold a peach!!!”

Morton, who announced her pregnancy at her 36th birthday party, told Us Weekly she simply hopes for a healthy baby with her Kenyan businessman hubby.

“I never thought I was one of those people who would say I don’t care what sex, I just want a healthy baby, but now I really don’t care. We just want a healthy baby,” she said in May. “I want two kids and my husband wants five. I joke with him and tell him you are going to do a lot of lovemaking to have five.”

Morton and Mwangi will reveal their baby’s gender when their anniversary comes in July.

Meanwhile, Morton joins rumored on-the-rocks castmember Kenya Moore as an RHOA star who is recently wed and expanding her family. Yet while Morton has not been plagued by rumors of faking her pregnancy, Moore has. But she’s proven once and for all that she’s expecting by posting a belly-baring photo on Instagram.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
