Comedian Bharti Singh and her husband, Haarsh Limbachiyaa, are expecting their second child, with the baby due next year. The couple announced the joyful news on Monday via a joint Instagram post. The announcement was accompanied by a picture of the couple posing against a scenic mountain backdrop, where Haarsh is seen lovingly caressing Bharti's baby bump. The post was captioned, "We are pregnant again".
Bharti, who is 41 years old, recently addressed speculation surrounding her pregnancy in a video, clarifying that the baby is due next year. She also dismissed rumors about undergoing gender testing abroad, asserting that she would never go against the law and emphasizing her faith in divine blessings. She stated that they have everything and only wish for a healthy baby, regardless of gender.
The news was met with an outpouring of love and congratulatory messages from fans, friends, and fellow celebrities. Celebrities like Parineeti Chopra, Anita Hassanandani, Drashti Dhami, and many others shared their best wishes for the couple.
Bharti and Haarsh tied the knot in 2017 and welcomed their first child, a son named Laksh, in April 2022. Laksh, affectionately called "Golla," frequently appears in Bharti's vlogs and social media videos. The couple recently celebrated his third birthday with close friends and family.
Bharti and Haarsh revealed the pregnancy news to their family during a trip to Switzerland. Bharti's family was unaware of the pregnancy, and she shared that she received "taunts" upon revealing the news because they hadn't noticed, as she had been wearing loose clothing. She explained that her family would often comment on her weight gain, but they didn't suspect a pregnancy.
In a previous podcast, Bharti had expressed her desire to have another child in 2025 and had hoped for a daughter. She mentioned praying to Lord Jagannath in Puri for this.
Bharti Singh began her career on "The Great Indian Laughter Challenge" and is known for her comedic timing. Haarsh Limbachiyaa is a screenwriter, producer, and television host. He has written for various comedy shows and films and has also produced and hosted shows with Bharti.
