Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya Announce Pregnancy After a Decade of Marriage
In a heartwarming revelation, popular television actors Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya have announced they are expecting their first child. The couple, married for ten years, shared the joyous news on social media on March 19, 2026, alongside the launch of Divyanka's YouTube channel, where they detailed their pregnancy journey in an emotional vlog.
A Journey of Patience and Preparation
The couple explained that their desire to start a family grew during the COVID-19 pandemic. Vivek recalled playing with children in their building, which sparked feelings of parenthood. Divyanka added that a special moment before she left for the show Khatron Ke Khiladi solidified their decision, with Vivek sweetly suggesting, "maybe it's time."
They also shared how a traumatic incident in Italy, where they were robbed, shifted their perspective. "After that experience, we felt the need to have someone of our own, our own child, who would comfort us," Divyanka said, emphasizing the desire for a companion through life's ups and downs.
Natural Conception at 40 and Emotional Reactions
Vivek revealed that Divyanka, at age 40, conceived naturally, a fact they highlighted to appreciate modern medical advancements while celebrating their personal achievement. Divyanka described the initial confusion with pregnancy tests, noting a faint line that led to repeated testing before confirmation via blood work.
Upon learning the news, Vivek experienced a mild panic attack. "Even though I was mentally prepared, when it actually happened, it felt overwhelming," he admitted. Divyanka, on the other hand, felt a "huge relief" followed by a growing sense of motherly care, prompting her to slow down in life.
Supportive Family and Personal Readiness
The couple praised their parents for never pressuring them to have children. Vivek stressed, "A baby should only happen when both partners are truly ready, not because of societal or family pressure." Divyanka added that they took a "big chance" and felt it was the right time, with her even stopping work in anticipation, guided by a strong instinct.
Their YouTube vlog marks the beginning of sharing this new chapter with fans, offering an intimate look into their lives as they prepare for parenthood after a decade together.
