What’s up?
It’s Emile Ennis Jr. here with Clevver News and Vanessa Morgan took to Instagram to reveal
her and Michael Kopech’s baby boy’s name and fans are wondering if her posts mean she
and her ex are officially back together.
Let’s get into it!
In January 2020, Vanessa Morgan and professional baseball player Michael Kopech got married
in a small ceremony in Florida.
Throughout their relationship, engagement, and marriage they frequently appeared on each
other’s social media pages and fans loved these two.
So people were extremely surprised when she announced her pregnancy without Michael last
July.
But it quickly became clear why Michael wasn’t a part of Vanessa’s pregnancy announcement.
News broke that about a month before Vanessa’s pregnancy post, Michael had filed for a divorce.
Michael and Vanessa both remained quiet about why they split, but the Chicago Tribune did
confirm that Michael was the father.
Since then, Michael deleted his social media pages and was otherwise quiet about their
divorce and pregnancy.
And Vanessa was seemingly leaning on her Riverdale co-stars like Madelaine Petsch to support
her through prenatal appointments.
“Very exciting, I think Mads is coming with me to an ultrasound appointment, I’m so
excited, tomorrow.
Oh my gosh!”
And there was no mention of Michael in any of her posts throughout her pregnancy...
Until the very end.
Just days before she gave birth she started including Michael in her posts again and even
subtly referred to him as her husband in one of her IG stories.
This didn’t necessarily mean they were back together.
He very well could’ve just been there for the birth of their child and and to support
Vanessa.
But it definitely got fans wondering on social media.
And Vanessa and Michael’s reconciliation rumors have picked up even more this past
week since their baby was born.
Vanessa took to Instagram to share the exciting news and this adorable picture of their son’s
tiny hand.
She also revealed his name in the caption and fans think she made it seem like she and
Michael might be back together.
Again, neither one of them have addressed their relationship status directly, but Vanessa
continuing to include Michael in her posts again has caused quite the stir on social
media.
Vanessa wrote quote, “On January 29th, Michael & I Welcomed our beautiful baby boy River
into the world.
Words cannot describe this kind of love.
We are enjoying this time home with him, being present, & giving him all the lovin in the
world.
Becoming parents is the most rewarding gift in the entire world.”
She also took to her IG stories to reveal the meaning behind the name River and said
that it was a name that she and Michael both loved.
Vanessa wrote quote, “Early on in my pregnancy I was walking the River every day, gave me
so much peace.
I knew that was the perfect name for his lil soul.
Plus Michael and I really wanted a nature name.”
She also shared a photo of a little pair of
baseball pajamas with Michael’s last name stamped all over them.
Vanessa’s famous friends and Riverdale co-stars flooded the comments of her posts with love
and support, but notably didn’t mention Michael in any of their comments.
Like Lili Reinhart who wrote quote, “his aunts and uncles can’t wait to meet him!!”
And model Iskra Lawrence chimed in saying, “So happy for you!
Sending you and river so so much love I’m always here for you
And many fans asked if the name River also had anything to do with the name of her show,
Riverdale.
Now that would be incredible!
But others couldn’t help but wonder about the significance of Michael being included
in all of her posts again.
This person wrote “sounding a lot to me like Vanessa and Michael are back together…
I hope he treats her better this time y’all.
He walked out on our girl while she was pregnant with his baby.
We’ve got eyes on you Mr. Kopech.”
And another fan asked “Wait didn’t he leave you and wanna divorce you.. so now he
is present now that his baby boy is born?
I hope he steps it up”
Others on Twitter also pointed out that Michael got a tattoo with their baby boy’s name
and Vanessa liked the post.
So while Vanessa and Michael haven’t officially
confirmed whether or not they’re back together, we’re just glad that everyone is healthy
and safe after her delivery.
A happy, healthy mom and baby is truly what’s most important in this situation!
There are still no reports about their divorce filing being pulled, outlets like E! News
are saying that the divorce filing still stands.
So we will keep you guys posted if either of them speaks out on their relationship status.
For now, we’ll just be looking forward to more adorable photos of River!
Congrats to all!
