'It's something I've always hoped for': Kate Chastain flaunts baby bump as she announces first pregnancy

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kate Chastain is all excited to become a mother for the first time. The reality star shared her pregnancy news on her Instagram page, with a cute picture flaunting her baby bump. "I am absolutely thrilled to become a mother. It's something I've always hoped for so this is truly a dream come true!" The star captioned the post, "I'm already planning so many birthday theme parties for you," while posing for a selfie in front of a mirror in a blue dress with white florals.

The 39-year-old made her last public appearance in October at BravoCon 2022, the red carper event. Chastain hosted several multiple panels from the BravoTV.com digital stage in New York City.

Chastain is well-known for playing a staple on Bravo's 'Below Deck' for six straight seasons before she quit the show in February 2020. She then took over the role of executive producer and hosts Bravo's 'Chat Room', which is a regular on the network's series 'Below Deck Galley Talk'. The popular star is also among the contestants in Peacock's upcoming reality competition series, 'The Traitors'. Well, it was these two shows that made her come out and make news of her pregnancy public. "This is such a new and special experience, so I'm really being protective of what I share publicly, but with new episodes of Below Deck Galley Talk about to air on Bravo after Christmas and The Traitors premiering on Peacock on Jan. 12, 2023, there's just no hiding my baby bump any longer!"
