‘We Managed To Hide It For Six Full Months’

Speaking about the pregnancy, Divyanka confirmed that the baby is due in mid-June and shared how the couple had intentionally planned this phase of their lives.

She said, “The baby is due in mid-June. Vivek and I wanted the baby only now, we tried, and it happened. We are blessed. Our parents are ecstatic. I first broke the news to Vivek, and then we dialled our parents almost immediately. We don’t have any preferences, be it a boy or a girl. And yes, I must say that we managed to hide it for six full months. Actually, I hardly stepped out, and that did the trick.”

The revelation has come as a heartwarming surprise, especially given how quietly the couple managed to keep such a significant milestone under wraps.

How The Couple Kept The News Private

Opening up about maintaining secrecy, Divyanka explained that staying away from public appearances played a crucial role. She revealed that she “hardly stepped out” over the past few months, which helped avoid attention.

The news eventually began circulating after Vivek attended an event where her absence was noticed and questioned. Reflecting on that moment, she said, “That’s where it started, and then you know how speculation travels,”

Due Date, Plans And Family Excitement

The couple is expecting their baby in mid-June, with the delivery planned in Mumbai. While preparations are yet to fully begin, Divyanka shared that shopping for the baby will start soon.

She also mentioned that the family has not yet decided on names, though the excitement around guessing whether it will be a boy or a girl has already begun. She reiterated, “We don’t have any preferences,”

A New Chapter For The Beloved Couple
