Madison Reyes is about to become a mom. The 21-year-old revealed on August 12 that she’s expecting her first child, sharing the news on Instagram during Washington, D.C.’s Otakon convention. Wearing a Sims-inspired outfit with the game’s signature plumbob headband, Reyes posed with a visible baby bump and captioned the post, “This sim is expecting!!” alongside a Sims-style “Eating for Two” notification.
In a follow-up video, she explained that her pregnancy means she will not attend November’s Waves Convention in Munich, a major fan event for Julie and the Phantoms and Descendants. She thanked her “lovely aunties and uncles” in the fandom for respecting her privacy and warned that any negative comments would be blocked.
Reyes, who got engaged to longtime boyfriend Shaun Scudder in July, is due in about three months. Co-stars 
Kenny Ortega and 
Owen Joyner were among the first to congratulate her.
