Skai Jackson, the 22-year-old former Disney Channel star, has revealed that she is expecting her first child. On November 12, 2024, the actress was spotted by paparazzi in Los Angeles, dressed in a white crop top and jeans that showcased her growing baby bump, while walking with her mother.
In an interview with People Magazine, Skai shared her excitement about entering motherhood but chose not to reveal the identity of the father, only confirming that it is her boyfriend. “I’m thrilled to begin this new chapter in my life — embracing motherhood and diving into new acting projects. My heart is so full!” she expressed.
Skai’s announcement comes after weeks of speculation following paparazzi photos that showed her cradling her baby bump under a flannel shirt, sparking online conversations about her pregnancy.
In addition to this joyous news, Skai’s recent past includes legal challenges. In September 2024, she was arrested on suspicion of domestic battery, although the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office later decided not to pursue charges. Earlier in August, Skai had also been taken into custody following an alleged altercation with her boyfriend at Universal Studios City Walk, where she mentioned her pregnancy during the incident. Despite these controversies, Skai remains focused on her new journey into motherhood and her acting career.
