Former “Pinoy Big Brother” Big Winner Slater Young and his wife Kryz Uy are expecting a second child amid the pandemic, they revealed in a vlog on Wednesday.
Kryz said she was stunned when her attempt to test if she was pregnant turned out positive last October 4. She said she was in disbelief when her pregnancy test on October 4 came back positive since she initially thought that her monthly period was just delayed for a couple of days.
“I’m shook because Slater and I, we are not planning to have a second kid. I’m laughing because Slater and I had a conversation earlier today and I said, ‘I think I am not pregnant because I’m getting all of these period cramps and period pains.’ I can’t believe it,” Kryz said at the start of her vlog. “I’m very very happy but at the same time completely shook. And scared to be honest because it’s still pandemic. I had 2 kids during the pandemic. So, I can’t really tell the difference, like how easy it would have been otherwise,” she added.
Kryz shared that prior to the October 4th positive pregnancy test result, she’s had several pregnancy tests before it and they all turned out negative. “I thought it would just be the same thing. I did not expect this result at all.”
While she’s delighted to be pregnant again, Kryz admitted that she also feels scared of having another child during the pandemic. Kryz and Slater welcomed their first son, Scott Knoa, in June 2020.
She then took a Polaroid photo of herself and surprised husband Slater and son Scottie with the good news. “I kinda knew na kasi why would you give me a random thing with a camera,” Slater said after he opened the box, where the polaroid picture and the pregnancy stick was.
It was their house helper, Jera, who got surprised with the pregnancy announcement of Kryz. Meanwhile, Young said he feels pressured for their second child as he jokes about needing to earn more money for his growing family.
Kryz, on the other hand, started to connect all the things that happened to her leading to the positive pregnancy test such as craving for kimchi — the same food she craved for when she got pregnant to their firstborn, Scottie.
