"The cat or rather the baby is out of the bag?! We are over the moon. We really wanted to keep this to ourselves but then again I remembered the many women on my timeline, hopeful moms to be, rainbow mums, career women trying to decide between family and your goals. I feel you, this is for you, Gods time is the best!" Kate Actress wrote on Instagram.
