Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi is pregnant with her first child! The news of the impending motherhood comes as a surprise to Lakshmi who suffers from endometriosis.
“Model, author, and Emmy-nominated Padma Lakshmi confirms that she is carrying her first child after years of struggling with endometriosis, a cause for which she has co-founded the Endometriosis Foundation of America,” the rep tells Us of Lakshmi, 39.
“As a result of her condition, this pregnancy has been referred to by her physician as nothing short of a medical miracle, and due to its delicate nature, we ask/implore the press to respect Ms. Lakshmi’s privacy at this time,” the rep continues.
I’m sure this will help give hope to other sufferers of endometriosis!
Congrats!
