Congratulations are in order for Ronda Rousey ! The 37-year-old wrestler made a huge announcement while appearing on a panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday, July 25: she's expecting her second child with husband Travis Browne .
“This experience in itself has been so rewarding, and with your support I hope to continue to be a graphic novelist," Rousey told Bautista.
"It doesn’t attack my body as much, so maybe I can keep doing this until I’m an old lady or at least while I keep popping out these babies! Did anyone notice that I’m very pregnant right now? Yeah, I’m just as pregnant as 'Mom' is in the majority of the comic," she added, before the audience broke into applause.
Rousey and Browne are currently parents to a 2-year-old daughter, La'akea Makalapuaokalanipo, and Rousey is stepmom to Browne's two sons from a previous marriage.
In a promotional clip for Expecting the Unexpected , Rousey called the book " Knocked Up meets John Wick , and also a romantic comedy."
As Parade previously reported, Rousey's book, Our Fight: A Memoir , shed some light on her decision to retire from fighting and focus on more creative pursuits.
“[...] In my judo career out of like 10 years, I had concussion symptoms more often than not. This is before all the research about CTE and everything was out,” Rousey told ABC News Live . “And so by the time that I got into MMA, every time you get a concussion, it's easier to get another one. And, I quickly discovered in MMA, any kind of significant strike, I'd be seeing stars, getting concussion symptoms. So I had to develop a system of fighting that was more efficient than anything I had ever seen before. So I would not get [...] touched at all because I just knew I couldn't take that kind of damage. And, it just continued to get worse and worse.”
While Rousey reportedly has no plans to return to fighting, she will be adapting her first memoir, My Fight/Your Fight, into a Netflix film , according to Deadline .
