Constance Wu, boyfriend Ryan Kattner anticipating child No. 2
Constance Wu and boyfriend Ryan Kattner predict, once more.
The “Fresh Off the Boat” and “Hustlers” star confirmed her being pregnant Tuesday with a photograph posted to her Instagram story. In the pic, the actor exposes her child bump and factors to it.
“Bun in the oven. Filipinese baby #2 coming soon,” she wrote, nodding to her soon-to-be baby’s blended Taiwanese and Filipino roots.
In 2020, the actor and Kattner (a musician and screenwriter who goes by Honus Honus) quietly welcomed a child lady.
Images of the “Making a Scene” creator, seemingly pregnant with a protruding child bump, surfaced on Thursday . Paparazzi caught Wu, 40, taking a stroll in Los Angeles carrying a striped shirt and sweatpants.
News of Wu’s second baby comes months after she launched her memoir, “Making a Scene” in October 2022. Leading as much as the ebook’s launch, the “Crazy Rich Asians” star returned to social media after shying away from the general public eye over her “Fresh off the Boat” controversy.
In 2019, Wu shared a collection of tweets expressing disappointment over the Season 6 renewal of ABC’s “Fresh Off the Boat.” She confronted backlash over her feedback, which she stated in July 2022 took a extreme toll on her psychological well being.
“I felt awful about what I said, and when a few DMs from a fellow Asian actress told me I’d become a blight on the Asian American community, I started feeling like I didn’t even deserve to live anymore. That I was a disgrace to AsAms, and they’d be better off without me,” she stated in a Twitter assertion. Her Twitter account has since been deactivated. “Looking back, it’s surreal that a few DMs convinced me to end my own life, but that’s what happened. Luckily, a friend found me and rushed me to the ER.”
In “Making a Scene,” she recalled that “Fresh Off the Boat” drama, and alleged she had been sexually assaulted by an unnamed producer on the historic Asian American collection.
“So therefore, I kept my mouth shut for a really long time about a lot of the sexual harassment and intimidation that I received the first two seasons of the show,” she stated of the alleged assault throughout a panel on the 2022 Atlantic Festival.
She added that the “Fresh Off the Boat” drama and her expertise with sexual assault had been linked, noting she “wanted to have a fresh slate where I didn’t have to start a show with all these memories of abuse.”
“It negatively affected my career, but in many ways it positively affected me personally because it made me take a break from my career, it made me go to therapy and understand it, and ultimately come out better.”
