Dionne Monsanto is pregnant with her first child with non-showbiz husband Ryan Stadler.
Taking to Instagram, the former actress revealed the happy news on her 36th birthday last Sunday, December 5.
“Best birthday & birthday gift so far??,” wrote Dionne alongside pics of her showing off her growing baby bump.
“This year has given me sooo much! I moved to a new country, learned a new language, discovered new interests, got engaged, married my best friend & love of my life @nayr_redlats, and together, we traveled & discovered different countries & cultures. BUT, this may be our most exciting adventure yet!
“I have never been this in love with life, and with love itself. I am so wildly grateful to the universe for conspiring in my favor,” she added.
Dionne, who tied the knot with Ryan earlier this year in Switzerland, is currently 20 weeks pregnant.
Before moving out to Switzerland for good, Dionne announced her showbiz retirement in February.
She last appeared on screen in TV series I Got You and A Soldier’s Heart.
