Alexa Bliss Shows Off Baby Bump After Announcing Pregnancy [PHOTO]
Alexa Bliss is pregnant with her first child, and she recently took to social media to document the loss of her abs.
Bliss was last seen inside a WWE ring at the Royal Rumble, where she failed to capture the Raw Women’s Championship from Bianca Belair. In the weeks leading up to the Royal Rumble clash, Bliss turned heel and attacked Belair while sharing screen time with Uncle Howdy, indicating that she may re-join her old ally Bray Wyatt.
However, Wyatt disappeared from WWE television shortly after Bliss, and his own future remains up in the air as he deals with an undisclosed illness.
On May 30th, Bliss and her husband Ryan Cabrera announced that they were expecting their first child. The baby is due in December, and according to the social media announcement, the pregnancy was “completely unexpected.” The couple revealed that their child is due in December, making Bliss about three months into her pregnancy.
Taking to her Instagram story over the weekend, Bliss shared a photo of her stomach, lamenting the loss of her abs while showing off her growing belly as she gets ready for motherhood. A screenshot of the photo can be seen below.
Speaking in an interview with The Messenger after revealing her big news, Alexa Bliss revealed that she was preparing to return to the ring when she learned of her pregnancy. The star underwent a procedure for skin cancer removal and also competed on The Masked Singer after her Royal Rumble loss to Belair.
“I was preparing for my return in the ring and I was just having really bad cramping. I thought that was weird,” Bliss recalled on Wednesday. “So then I just decided to take a test and then I think I said, ‘Oh s—t.'”
According to Ryan Cabrera, the couple have always wanted to be parents even if the timing of this pregnancy took them by surprise.
“We always talked about that we were definitely going to have kids and we both have wanted kids. We just didn’t know what the right time was with everything. And then it just accidentally happened. At first we were both like, ‘Uh oh, what are we going to do?'”
Bliss also revealed that WWE has extended her contract.
