- She's a mother again.
Vanessa Morgan, the 32-year-old "Riverdale" star, announced in early July that she was expecting her second child. Just over four weeks later, the baby has arrived. The actress shared the news on TikTok.
On the platform, she posted a video showing her partner and the baby's father, Canadian professional basketball player James Karnik, leaving the hospital with a baby carrier in his arms.
Morgan humorously captioned the post: "Okay, okay, let's get pregnant again." She has kept the baby's birthdate and other details private for now. Shortly after announcing her pregnancy, Morgan revealed that she was expecting a girl.
