Former Disney Star Skai Jackson Confirms Pregnancy at 22
Former Disney Channel star Skai Jackson has confirmed that she is pregnant with her first child. The 22-year-old actress, known for her role as Zuri Ross on the Disney Channel series ‘Jessie,’ made the announcement on Tuesday, November 12.
Jackson expressed her excitement about the new chapter in her life, stating, “I’m thrilled to begin this new chapter in my life — embracing motherhood and diving into new acting projects. My heart is so full!”
The news comes after recent speculation and rumors circulating on social media. Photos of Jackson showing her growing baby bump have been published, with her seen wearing a white crop top and jeans while out with a friend.
The father of the child is Jackson’s boyfriend, although his identity has not been publicly disclosed. The couple has had a rocky relationship, with Jackson being arrested in August for domestic battery following an altercation with her boyfriend. However, no charges were filed, and she was released after the investigation revealed it was a misunderstanding.
Despite the past challenges, Jackson is looking forward to her new role as a mother and continuing her career in acting and other projects.
