Skai Jackson confirms she and her boyfriend are expecting their first child.
Speculation began after Jackson was seemingly spotted showing off her baby bump last month. The exclusive pictures obtained by The Shade Room, shows Jackson talking on the phone, wearing a bonnet, and a flannel sweater.
“Skai having a baby before me like girl I watched u on Disney..” reacted one fan. “She said she was pregnant when they locked her up. What’s the confusion..” commented another.
The actress has since confirmed those speculations.
“I’m thrilled to begin this new chapter in my life — embracing motherhood and diving into new acting projects. My heart is so full!” Jackson tells PEOPLE.
Skai says her own mother, Kiya Cole, gave her the confidence to be the woman she is today.
“[My mom] always taught me to stand up for myself, stand up for what I believe in and fight for what is right,” she told PEOPLE in February 2023. “I thank her for that because without her, I probably wouldn’t have a lot of the confidence that I do now.”
The former Disney Star has been in the public eye for most of her entire life, and as expected, she says that comes from great pressures. “At the end of the day, I look at myself as the regular person that people just happen to like or enjoy.”
Still, she said, “It’s very important for me to put out the right message, be positive at all times and give my fans great advice. Let them know that anything that they want to do in life, they can achieve it.”
