Kerri Walsh Jennings was five weeks pregnant during Olympics

New York: US beach volleyball player Kerri Walsh Jennings has revealed a shocking secret that she was five weeks pregnant when she won her third Olympic gold medal at the London Olympics.

“When I was throwing my body around fearlessly, and going for gold for our country, I was pregnant, and today I’m 11 weeks pregnant,” a daily quoted her saying in an interview. The Olympian sat with her husband Casey as they shared the happy news on air. They revealed they were trying for a third child before the Olympics, but didn’t expect it to happen so quickly. “I’m a pretty happy girl and I was unreasonably moody.” “I thought it could have been the stress of the games and travel kind of throws your schedule off, but I knew.” “At some point, you’re late and then you start feeling something. And I definitely started feeling something in London,” she said. She said, in retrospect, she did look pregnant. “I look at pictures and I’m like, ‘God you can tell!’ I look thicker,” she added. The baby is due on April 9. ANI
