There seems to have been quite the baby boom in WWE over the past few years, with many current and former Superstars welcoming children. The Bella Twins, Miz and Maryse, Maria Kanellis and many other stars have all recently welcomed new additions to their families.

Maryse was the first woman in a number of years to announce her pregnancy whilst being an active part of the show. She has since been followed by Maria, Lacey Evans and Candice LeRae.

Whilst there are several women currently waiting to add to their family, there are also a handful who have recently announced the arrival of their child.

The following list looks at just three WWE women who are currently pregnant, as well as three who have recently given birth.


#3. Currently pregnant: Former WWE Superstar Ronda Rousey

Ronda Rousey was one of the first women to main event WrestleMania back in 2019. She lost the RAW Women's Championship to Becky Lynch in a winner-takes-all match that also included Charlotte Flair.

Following the match, the former UFC Champion announced that she was taking an "impregnation vacation" and hasn't returned to the company since. Earlier this year, despite rumors that Rousey was set to return to WWE, the former Champion announced that she was expecting her first child with husband Travis Browne.

The couple has since announced that they are expecting a girl, who is due on September 22nd.


#3. Recently gave birth: Former WWE Superstar Brandi Rhodes

Brandi Rhodes was known to the WWE Universe as Eden Stiles throughout her stint in the company, which came to an end back in 2016. Cody Rhodes' wife followed her husband out of the company and has since found a home in AEW.

Brandi and The American Nightmare announced in the fall of 2020 that they were expecting their first child and later revealed that it was a girl. The announcement came as part of a cute video package on an episode of AEW Dynamite.

The couple has since welcomed their daughter, whom the couple has called Liberty Iris Runnels. Iris was born on Friday, June 18th, just days after fellow AEW Superstars Jon Moxley and Renee Paquette's child was born.

#2. Currently pregnant: WWE Superstar Lacey Evans

Lacey Evans was set to challenge Asuka for the RAW Women's Championship at WWE's Elimination Chamber earlier this year. She was forced to pull out and the match was canceled.

The week before, Evans had announced that she was expecting her second child on a live episode of Monday Night RAW. It was then seemingly integrated into the storyline with Ric Flair.

Evans hasn't been seen on WWE TV since, but it was revealed that the Sassy Southern Belle is expecting a baby in real life. Recent Instagram posts have shown that the star is expecting a second daughter.

Evans and her husband already have a little girl called Summer, who was born before Evans signed to WWE. During Evans' time in NXT, she would allow her daughter to join her on the road and would share cute updates of the youngster backstage.

It's unclear how long Evans will be out of action given the fact that Becky Lynch has been away from the company for more than a year at present.

#2. Recently given birth: Former WWE Superstar Renee Paquette

Renee Paquette was known as Renee Young whilst under contract with WWE. It was whilst working for the company that she met her future husband, Dean Ambrose.

Ambrose left WWE back in 2019 and has since gone on to become known as Jon Moxley in AEW. His wife followed suit just a year later when she departed WWE in the summer of 2020.

Not long after Young's departure from the company, the former star announced that she was expecting the couple's first child, later revealed to be a girl. Paquette then continued to work on her podcast and update her fanbase on her pregnancy on Instagram, before officially welcoming her daughter.

Whilst the couple didn't make an official announcement that their daughter Nora had arrived, it was revealed that she had back in June.

The couple opted to call their first born child Nora after Young's late grandmother and have since been very private about their daughter online.

#1. Currently pregnant: WWE Superstar Candice LeRae

It was only officially announced on Twitter a few hours ago that current WWE Superstars Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae are expecting their first child.

The stars are currently working together on WWE's NXT brand. It appears they are ready to welcome the newest member of their family, with Gargano announcing that their baby is due in February 2022.

This has come as a shock since the two stars were thought to be heading to the main roster as part of the upcoming WWE Draft. Now, LeRae will have to take more than a year out of action.

Given the date, it's easy to assume that the former Women's Tag Team Champion has passed the 12-week mark. She is now into the second trimester of her first pregnancy.

The couple married back in 2016 and have since spent several years working together in NXT. This could be considered to be the next step in their lives, and it's happened at the best time for both stars.

#1. Recently given birth: WWE Superstar Becky Lynch

Former RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch was at the height of her WWE career last year. She announced that she was expecting her first child and was then forced onto maternity leave.

At the time, Lynch was RAW Women's Champion and had to vacate the Championship to Asuka, who had won The Women's Money in the Bank ladder match the night before.

Lynch then went on maternity leave and welcomed her daughter alongside fellow WWE Superstar Seth Rollins in December. Over the past few months, The Man has teased that she is set to make her WWE return, but is still yet to officially come back.

Lynch teased a return at both The Royal Rumble and WrestleMania and was even backstage at Money in the Bank but is still yet to appear. Current rumors suggest that the former Women's Champion will be in attendance at the Allegiant Stadium for SummerSlam. The Biggest Party of the Summer could be where she finally makes her return.
