45-year-old Tami Roman shocked reality TV fans last night when she announced that she was six weeks pregnant, live on-air. Roman shared the big news on VH1’s Love and Hip Hop Atlanta After Party Live last night.
The news came quite unexpectedly, mainly because Tami had sworn off children during an episode of WE TV’s Marriage Bootcamp: Reality Stars.
Her boyfriend Reggie Youngblood, who is 17 years Tami’s junior, is the baby’s father. Although Tami doesn’t like being called a “cougar,” Reggie still jokingly (and quite accurately) calls her a “MILF.” Previously, there had been some tension between the two due to the fact that Reggie wanted to be married with kids and Tami had made it clear that she wanted neither. Months later, it’s funny how things have changed!
The new mommy-to-be took to Twitter last night to thank her fans for all of their support.
“Thanks for the well wishes everyone, it’s been hard keeping it a secret, but we are thankful for all the love. Now the journey begins!”
Roman has two kids—Lyric and Jazz—with her former husband, NBA star Kenny Anderson.
We wish the couple nothing but the best! Congrats Tami and Reggie!
