00:00Your co-star Trina McGee is pregnant at 54.
00:07I know when she had three kids back on the show when she was pregnant back then.
00:12Actually, I came on right after she had just had the last baby.
00:15Wow.
00:18Any thoughts?
00:20Well, I have to say, I hate to say it, but my first thought was like, is this April Fool's Day?
00:25I was like, wait, what?
00:28But I read the post and stuff. I hope that it's not like a publicity stunt or anything.
00:34Why would you think it would be publicity?
00:36Because I have not seen any verification or any information.
00:38I would think in the first days that she's probably trying to be safe and everything.
00:42So I give her her space and all that.
00:45But I hope that as it goes along, she would show us her journey because that's a pretty big deal.
00:51I think that would help a lot of women, a lot of women with fertility issues.
00:55Especially at that age.
00:56Yes, to naturally become pregnant.
00:58I mean, I did have a friend who she got pregnant at 50, but she was inseminated and it was like a whole deal.
01:07It's amazing. She's a beautiful baby now.
01:09So I think it would be super inspirational for Trina to come out.
01:12I have to say about Trina, she and I have always had a great relationship and she's always been supportive of me.
01:17And I'm supportive of her in a pregnancy.
01:20What about the argument that your child is more likely to have health issues?
01:25That late in age.
01:27Yeah. No, that isn't actually a real issue.
01:30And like I said with my friend, that was an issue too.
01:33And she had an egg planted in it.
01:35You know, it's a different kind of story.
01:37But I don't think Trina planned it.
01:39I think she said it was not to be an accident.
01:42I don't think she would plan it.
01:44But I mean, it should be celebrated that it happened.
01:47But yeah, there's always those issues.
01:50And so you need to be in top medical care and stuff.
01:52She should document it to help other women.
01:54She should document it, yes.
01:56But I'm sure...
01:58But at first I was like, wait, this is a joke.
02:00And showing how it's possible.
02:02How it's possible. I would love to see the journey along the way.
02:05And to see like...
02:06It would be amazing every step of the way.
02:08Like, I'm sure now...
02:10It's different at 35.
02:12And she's like, I need to back off.
02:15But don't back away, Trina. Come and show us.
