After a lengthy journey, Sanya Richards-Ross is adding a new member to her family. The 38-year-old Real Housewives of Atlanta star is pregnant with her second child, she discloses in the season 15 mid-season trailer released on Friday.
While casually handing her spouse Aaron Ross a pregnancy test, she exclaims, “No way!” “This is real?” he asks, to which she agrees as she begins jumping up and down and yelling, “I’m pregnant!” before hugging everyone in the room.
The newborn will join the couple’s 6-year-old son Aaron Jermaine, who will turn 6 the following month.
During an episode of the Bravo series that aired last autumn, the retired track-and-field star revealed that she decided to remove her intrauterine device (IUD) and begin trying for their second child.
Richards-Ross’s desire to expand her family has been negatively impacted by the overwhelming caseload she endured after the birth of her son, as evidenced by her reluctance to have another child. In a February interview with The Bump, Richards-Ross acknowledged the couple “struggled” at the beginning of their marriage and parenting journey to divide the work equally.
I breastfed my son for nearly two and a half years. I wish I had followed the advice of the nurse who advised me to pump. She stated, “You must share this burden.” If you are exclusively lactating, you will become overwhelmed.’ “And I said, ‘Oh, no, I’ll take it on, it’ll be fine,'” she recalled.
“I recall that there were times when I asked my husband to remain up with me. Even if he was not suckling, I required his companionship. And he responded, “Why should we both be exhausted?” This created a major rift. It was a source of contention for me because I was shouldering the entire load and he refused to sit up with me.

She continued, “Therefore, I believe it’s important for both parties to communicate their needs clearly, and for their partner to have the compassion to truly hear them and comprehend that these needs matter to you, even if they don’t seem important to them.”
Richards-Ross remarked that the couple was in a “much better place” as they attempted to conceive a second child.
“I shared my story of struggling to want another child, and I was pleasantly surprised by the response from women around the globe who reached out to say how much they appreciated me discussing this. And it is difficult to discuss,’ she acknowledged.
“It feels extremely egotistical, but it is not. I believe it’s a sign of great maturity to recognize your limitations and have the courage to stand in your truth. This time, my husband and I are trying for a second child, and I am in a much healthier place, as is our family.”
She added that her RHOA co-stars have been “so supportive of my journey,” adding, “It’s almost as if they want me to be pregnant more than I do.” I absolutely adore that because it exemplifies true sisterhood.”
