"I've been pregnant since January, and I can't hide it anymore so it's time to show it off," Ronda said in the accompanying video, showing off her bump.

The 34-year-old recently sat down for an interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oobz1ZPunG4" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Table Talk</a>, where she opened up about having a family and her eventual return to WWE. She said: "I actually waited until this moment to tell everybody. I don't know [when I'll return]. "When I feel like it. I'll come back when I feel like it. Eventually, when I feel like it." <img class="wp-image-1263104220 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/04/Ronda-1.jpg" alt="Ronda Rousey and her husband." width="600" height="691" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Alamy / Sipa US]] Ronda was rumored to be pregnant back in January 2019, with people speculating that she was going to leave the WWE at the time to become a mother.

The 34-year-old said: "I honestly don't know why [anyone] feels [they're] an authority to speak on plans for my uterus. It's my vagina, my life, keep the speculations to yourself. Leave me and my reproductive organs alone." <h6>Featured image credit: Alamy / ZUMA Press, Inc.</h6>
