'Dance Moms' Star Kira Girard Pregnant; Shows Off Her Baby Bump Amid Rumors She And Daughter Kalani Hilliker Will Leave ALDC

"Dance Moms" star Kira Girard is six and a half months pregnant with a baby boy! The reality TV star confirmed the news via a post on Instagram. She wrote, "I can't believe in just 3 short months this lil boy will be joining us in this world! We are so excited to meet our lil guy. #safezonefinally #itsaboy #6.5months."

Girard's confirmation came just a few hours before Lifetime released the official trailer for the upcoming episode of "Dance Moms." In the teaser, Girard was featured confirming the news to all of the fans of the hit reality TV show.

"Since we have all the adults here, I want to tell you guys first: I'm pregnant! The whole reason I didn't say anything was because I had a lot of complications," she said in the clip.

Meanwhile, also in the clip, Melissa Gisoni, the mom of Maddie and Mackenzie Ziegler could be heard sharing news that Girard was at the hospital due to her difficult pregnancy. At that time, Jill Vertes, the mother of Kendall, urged Gisoni to keep quiet so as not to alarm Hilliker. Girard's pregnancy was reported just a week after she confirmed her and daughter Hilliker's exit from ALDC's junior elite team. 

According to the International Business Times, Girard has two children from a previous marriage, Hilliker, 14 and Jax, 7. Just last month, Girard's boyfriend David Newman asked for her hand in marriage and she said "yes." Newman is a professional real estate agent.

Girard's pregnancy announcement episode will air on "Dance Moms" on August 18. It is unclear whether or not Newman's proposal will also make it into the reality TV show.

"Dance Moms" also stars ALDC coach Abby Lee Miller, JoJo Siwa, Nia Frazer and more. The series airs every Tuesday night at 9 p.m. ET on Lifetime.
