This past May, Brown announced she’s pregnant with the couple’s second baby, showing off her growing baby bump in a special Mother’s Day post on Instagram.
In the picture, Brown — who first stepped out publicly with Newton at Milan Fashion Week in 2022 —cradled her bare belly while just wearing an open white robe.
“Feeling ALL the Love, kicks and elbows,” the comedian and actress captioned the post, adding, “Cheers to our growing tribe,” using the Happy Mother’s Day hashtag.
Brown and Newton are already parents to a baby girl born in March 2024, while the athlete is also dad to seven other kids. He shares four children with his ex-girlfriend, Kia Proctor — sons Chosen Sebastian, Camidas Swain and Cashmere Saint and daughter Sovereign-Dior Cambella — and helps raise Proctor’s older daughter, Shakira.
The athlete also shares two kids with photographer LaReina Shaw — their son, Caesar and Shaw’s older son, Jaden, from a previous relationship.
In February, Newton spoke with PEOPLE ahead of Super Bowl LIX from the SiriusXM set at Media Row and shared that he was hoping to have a ninth baby.
“Did I tell you I want more?” Newton told PEOPLE when asked about his kids. He also shares that he doesn’t know when he’ll feel like his family is complete.
“I don’t know, wherever much that God gives me,” he said when asked how many more kids he’d want. “But jokingly, and not jokingly, they really give me my purpose and there’s so many different things that I look at to say, they’re my refuge. They’re my peace. They’re my encouragement.”
“There’s times where, even I’m here and they’re still at home. Those type of things affect me but it also gives me more reason to say I’m doing this because of that situation,” Newton added.
