Following the announcement, Barrett spoke with Audacy's Leading Ladies host Katie Neal, sharing how she's feeling about her pregnancy.

"I'm good. I'm fatigued. In and out nausea kind of gets me sometimes at the most random spots, but I'm good for the most part. I'm in the second trimester now," said Barrett.

When asked if Baylah is "excited" about the new baby, Barrett said, "Absolutely."

"She's very sweet about her babies and baby dolls already," Barrett continued. "She puts them to sleep all the time, she'll hold them like she's putting them to sleep. It is the sweetest thing. Give them their pacifier, and she does give my belly kisses and stuff. I don't think she understands there's a baby in the belly, but she's very sweet about it."
