Celebrities who managed to keep their babies a secret
Mindy Kaling has always been private when it comes to her personal life, from dating to kids. When she announced that she was pregnant with her first child in 2017, she didn't share the father's identity despite outrageous speculation from the tabloids. As she welcomed her second child privately during the pandemic, she began to open up about her journey as a single mom, having kids in her own time. On her birthday on June 24, 2024, Kaling introduced the world to her daughter Anne, born in late February. She shared an adorable picture of her two older kids leaning in on either side of the baby, taken from behind to hide their faces. The post was captioned, "She’s the best birthday present I could’ve ever imagined. When things are hard, whenever I veer towards cynicism, my three kids are such a great reminder of the pure joy in my life. I’m so lucky I live in a place where I could do this by myself, on my own timeline." When it comes to the press, it's hard for celebrities to keep anything secret, let alone the imminent arrival of a child.
