Congratulations, Kerry Washington!
The 39-year-old Scandal star is pregnant with her second child with husband, Nnamdi Asomugha, a source confirms to ET. Washington gave birth to their daughter, Isabelle, in April 2014.
Although the notoriously private actress has yet
to talk about the big news herself, there was no hiding her burgeoning
baby bump in a recent cute selfie of the Scandal cast with
crisis management expert Judy Smith, whom the hit show is based on.
Washington cradled her stomach in the pic posted on Instagram by her
co-star, Tony Goldwyn, wearing a loose black sweater and jeans.
A photo posted by Tony Goldwyn (@tonygoldwyn) on
Washington and her former NFL hubby also attended
the 2016 White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, D.C. on
Saturday night, where she looked gorgeous in a black, one-shoulder
Victoria Beckham dress. A source tells ET the couple was laughing and
joking and appeared to have a great time together, although as usual,
Washington walked the red carpet alone.
Last month, Washington talked about keeping her private life private, including details on her daughter and husband.
"If I don't talk about my personal life, it means I
don't talk about my personal life," she said during SXSW's "The New
Rules of Social Stardom" panel. "That means not only did I not tell you
when I was getting married, it also means if somebody has rumors about
what's going on in my marriage, I don't refute them, because I don't
talk about my personal life."
Although, she did admit to having the urge to share adorable pictures of Isabelle with her fans.
"I have these itchy fingers where I want to post a
photo of my daughter, so instead I send it to my shrink or my mother,"
she joked. "I'm like, 'Look at this picture! Look how cute!' Get it out
of my phone into the world, but not on social."
Still, she did open up a little about her baby girl to ET last February at the launch for The Limited Collection Inspired by Scandal's spring line, including that she gets to spend time with her on set.
"I'm really blessed because my daughter gets to be
at work with me a lot so that’s really fun and wonderful. Everybody at
work really likes it," Washington shared. "She brings a lot of joy
wherever she is so it's fun to have her around."
"The thing that has changed the most about me
since I became a mom is that my heart keeps getting bigger and bigger,"
she adorably added.
