“The Bold and the Beautiful” star Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (Steffy Forrester) announced in a newsletter post that she is pregnant with her fifth child with husband Elan Ruspoli.
“I’m almost 7 months pregnant! Our family is beyond excited, and my kids are over the moon,” said Wood in her post published on Monday. “It’s such a special time in our home—so much love, energy, and anticipation!”
In August 2023, the couple welcomed their fourth child, a boy they named Valor James who joined older brothers Rise (born March 2019), Lenix (born February 2021) and Brando (born May 2022).
“Continuing to work out—so grateful I focused on building strength before pregnancy! It’s made carrying my kids and performing emotional scenes much easier,” noted Wood about the experience.
Earlier in the newsletter, Wood revealed that and the family had recently returned from a trip to San Diego where they visited Fox Point Farm in Encinitas. “It’s a beautiful farm-to-table restaurant with a play area for the kids, animals, a big open field to run around in, and an adorable organic grocery store. It was the perfect place for a little reset and some fresh air!” she said.
As for her ability to balance motherhood and work on the daytime drama series, Wood shared, “I’ve been deep into filming some intense storylines on ‘The Bold and the Beautiful,’ which has me burning the candle at both ends. Between work, traveling, and keeping up with my kids, prioritizing my health is absolutely essential.”
While she did not unveil the sex of the baby, particularly whether it’s a girl considering Wood and her husband Elan already have four boys, she previously told Michael Fairman TV the couple had always wanted a big family, considering she was technically an only child as her half-sister is 20 years older than her, and he is an only child. “We are now diving into this big family, and it’s so cool. We never got that. So, it’s really exciting,” said Wood in the June 2023 interview.
Considering how far she is into pregnancy don’t look for the show to write her status into the show’s storylines.
