Britney Spears Is Pregnant With Her Third Child: See the Best Fan Reactions

Oh baby, baby! Britney Spears shocked fans across the world on Monday (April 11) when she casually announced via Instagram that she’s pregnant for a third time and expecting a bundle of joy with her longtime partner, Sam Asghari.

“I lost a lot of weight to go on my Maui trip, only to gain it back,” she explained with a photo of pink flowers alongside a cup of hot coffee. “I thought, “Geez… what happened to me stomach? My husband said, “No you’re food pregnant silly!” !'” The “…Baby One More Time” singer then revealed that she took a pregnancy test and confirmed that she was actually baby pregnant. “Uhhhhhhhhhh well… I am having another baby… 4 more days later I got a little bit more food pregnant… It’s growing! If there are 2 in there, I might lose it .”

Moments after the 40-year-old shared the news online, social media blew up with thousands of congratulatory wishes for the singer in light of her 13-year long conservatorship battle, in which the pop singer alleged an IUD birth control device was implanted against her wishes, preventing her from having future children. In a June public statement, Spears stated to Judge Brenda Penny that she wanted to be able “to get married and have children.” “I was told in the conservatorship that I am not able to get married or have children. I have an IUD in my body right now to prevent me from getting pregnant. I wanted to get the IUD out so I could try to have another child. But this so-called team won’t let me go to the doctor to take it out because they don’t want me to have any more children.” The conservatorship was terminated in November 2021.

Spears shares two sons — 16-year-old Sean and 15-year-old Jaden- with ex-husband Kevin Federline. Asghari will have his first child with this pregnancy.

Throughout Britney’s conservatorship battle, the most upsetting moment (all of it was awful, to be clear) was learning that she was unable to remove her IUD and have another baby.

It is an exponentially happier feeling to learn that she is pregnant with her third baby. pic.twitter.com/o1DpvUXxaB
