Jana Kramer cherished a moment of having a “grateful heart with a growing belly,” posing for a mirror selfie baring her growing baby bump as she prepares to welcome Baby No. 3 at the end of this year. The country artist, actress and Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast host posted the photo on Instagram, shortly after closing on her new Nashville, Tennessee-area home.
Kramer, 39, announced earlier this year that she and fiancé Allan Russell were engaged after about six months of dating. Shortly after the engagement announcement, Kramer revealed that she’s pregnant with her third child, her first with Russell. The child, a baby boy, is due around the time of Kramer’s 40th birthday (December 2, though Kramer said she plans to deliver before then).
The baby will join big sister Jolie, 7, and brother Jace, 4, Kramer’s children from her previous marriage. Kramer previously shared the heartwarming videos of the moments she told Jolie and Jace that she’s expecting another baby. Jolie gushed with excitement, and Jace gave the baby bump a gentle kiss.
Kramer and Russell revealed over the summer that they’re expecting a baby boy (Kramer admitted she was “so shocked” after feeling “convinced it was a girl”). The parents-to-be have selected a name, and although they haven’t publicly shared it, Kramer confirmed it breaks the “J” theme of her two older children. Instead, “it starts with an R.”
