Coco Austin talks pregnancy: Star reveals why she waited, says pregnancy has been ‘easy breezy’

After waiting for 14 years, Coco Austin, 36, is finally pregnant. She said it has been “easy breezy” so far. The reality star also revealed that she always considered 35 to be the magical age to have a baby.

Austin told E! News Tuesday that she once told her husband, Ice-T, that “35 is the number.” The TV personality and businesswoman was referring to the age that she considers perfect to have a baby.

Austin was on contraceptive medication for 17 years. After she stopped that, she was reportedly told that it would take almost a year to regulate her body. She, however, conceived before that, and she and her husband were reportedly surprised to know that she was pregnant.

The couple did not disclose other details about the pregnancy, aside from Austin experiencing a few complications that typically affects expectant mothers. "I have to say it's been really easy breezy. I hate saying that because…a lot of people go through it. You're nauseated through the whole trimester," Austin said. "I got sick one time and it was at night and the rest was easy."

Austin and her rapper husband first announced the news about the pregnancy on Friday, July 24, during the taping of the couple’s new reality show “Ice and Coco,” People reports. Austin also took to Twitter on Monday to share that she was pregnant.

The “Law & Order: SVU” actor also shared the big news on social media Monday. The rapper also thanked the fans for their overwhelming love and support.

The new baby will be Ice-T’s third child and Austin’s first. The actor already has two children and a 20-year-old grandson.

Meanwhile, the Hollywood couple is also busy preparing for the upcoming premiere of “Ice and Coco” on August 3.
