Former video vixen turned bestselling author and creative director Elisabeth Ovesen announced that she is pregnant with her second child.
The 44-year-old beauty, formerly known as Karrine Steffans or, infamously– Superhead, shared the exciting news on Instagram on December 28. Ovesen already has a 24-year-old son, Naim Wilson, with old-school emcee Kool G Rap. The reinvented boss wrote a touching message about her partner– chef extraordinaire and actor Kwame Onwuachi – and her “exciting and terrifying gift.”
“For some women, women like me, these two lines are scary. They conjure feelings of fear and anticipation, anxiety and confusion. Memories of past reproductive and pregnancy traumas rise to the surface. Frantic calls to the doctor, emergency appointments, blood work and ultrasounds — not just to check on the new life developing inside, but the scars, the tumors, the cysts. Appointments about life and death. Discussions about the dangers associated with pregnancy and birth at this age, with this trauma. Bed rest is certain, and nothing else,” Ovesen penned.
“Thank you, @chefkwameonwuachi, for the most exciting, most terrifying gift. I don’t know what comes next, but I know I can’t do it without you. I hope everyone enjoys their NYE plans. I’ll be in bed and off social for a bit … praying for a miracle. (These nails tho),” the glowing pregnant mogul concluded.
