Vanessa Morgan, 32, has welcomed her second baby with boyfriend James Karnik, 33. The actress shared a TikTok video of Karnik leaving the hospital with their newborn, accompanied by Mary J. Blige's "Family Affair" and a clip from The Summer I Turned Pretty.

Morgan captioned the post, "Fine, knock me up again, 😂🤰🏽" and Karnik responded with "Hahaha got me feeling myself." Morgan also shared a series of maternity photos with her bare baby bump, announcing her pregnancy on July 6.


The Riverdale alum is already the mother of son River, whom she welcomed with ex-husband Michael Kopech in January 2021. Morgan kept her second pregnancy under wraps until shortly before her daughter's arrival.

Karnik confirmed the sex of the baby in an Instagram post, writing, "Holdin BOTH my girls at the same time." Morgan followed up her initial post with more maternity pictures, hinting at her due date in her caption.

Prior to moving on with Karnik, Morgan married Kopech in January 2020. When she announced her first pregnancy that July, she did not include Kopech in her social media post. News later broke that he filed for divorce shortly before her pregnancy was made public.

In an interview, Morgan spoke out about the split, saying, "God saved me. I only saw the bigger picture now. You go through those two years of pain. I went through two years of pain." She added, "Part of the biggest thing is that embarrassment. Not wanting to face that you have a broken family."

Morgan initially struggled to cope with her new normal following her divorce, but eventually embraced the outcome. She said, "I think that's the beauty of life is that it doesn't always go as planned and it's the journey."

The actress has been open about her journey as a single mom, saying, "You get married, you want to kind of have that fantasy and I think it's almost like you feel disappointed to tell people that it didn't work out, I'm going to be a single mom. I think that's the beauty of life is that it doesn't always go as planned and it's the journey."

Morgan's fans have been congratulating her on her new addition, with many praising her for being open and honest about her journey as a single mom.
