Ella is reportedly already in full big sister mode and even more thrilled now that the family has announced the news to the public, according to Pulliam and James.
“She is going to be an awesome big sister, she is excited,” Pulliam added. “She has known from the beginning, so she actually did a really good job because she kept the secret! I was like, ‘Listen, Ella, you cannot tell anybody,’ so now she’ll be like, ‘Do they know about the baby, can I tell them?’ So, now she has free rein to tell everybody.”

The actress recently discussed how the COVID-19 epidemic influenced her intentions to have another child. She wed Brad in September 2021.
She said:
“I was 41 at the time and knew that I wanted another kid, but I knew that it wasn’t right now.
“I began the process of freezing my eggs, and then literally the day that I was supposed to start my meds is when, as a result of the pandemic, they shut down all elective medical procedures. So, I was unable to continue.”
“I think a lot of people didn’t realize that, with the world shutting down in the pandemic, it didn’t just affect your ability to go to the mall, or to do sporting events the way you want to, but it definitely affected a lot of people from a medical standpoint.”
“People were unable to get mammograms and cancer surgery was very much needed.”
“It’s crazy that preserving your right and your ability to have a baby is considered elective. It shouldn’t. It should be an option that’s given to all women.”
