Jalen Green and Draya Michele are expecting a baby girl.

On March 8, International Women's Day, the 39-year-old media personality and model took to Instagram to share a carousel post showing her growing baby bump.

"We are overjoyed to share our love for you, little girl. I'm excited to speak words to the daughter I never thought I'd have," Michele wrote to announce her pregnancy.

She continued, "We are anxious about your arrival, but take your time -- this world can be tough. But know you are being brought into a space of love, security and adornment."

Based on the hashtags in her post, she is due in May.

While the "Basketball Wives" alum did not tag the Houston Rockets star in her post, Washington Wizards player Kyle Kuzma tagged both Michele and Green in his congratulatory comment, saying, "It's up familyyy @jalen @drayamichele."

The comments section on Michele's post has since been turned off.

A few days after Michele's pregnancy announcement, the 22-year-old basketballer unintentionally showed off a tattoo of the model's name on social media.

On Wednesday, Green took to Instagram to share a Story greeting his little sister on her birthday. He was topless in the photo, revealing his several tattoos. One of many was an ink of his much older girlfriend's name, Draya.

The tattooed cursive name of Draya was placed on his lower stomach, under a big tattoo that read, "Believe in yourself."

Rumors about Green and Michele dating started in August 2023 after they were spotted together. The NBA star was only 21 years old at the time, while Michele was 38.

Because of their 17-year age gap, many found their relationship off, especially since the Mint Swim founder's first son, Kniko Howard, is about the same age as Green. The identity of Kniko's dad also remains a mystery.

"The rate of how NBA young stars are busy dating older women is alarming," tweeted one netizen at the time.

"[An] old woman who couldn't keep a relationship with someone in her age grade now suddenly starts dating a very, very young boy. That's a predator right there whether people like it or not," another opined.

However, many came to the couple's defense, saying, "Age is just a number."

Michele's baby with Jalen will be her third child. She welcomed her second child, Jru Scandrick, in 2016, with football cornerback Orlando Scandrick. But they broke up in 2019.
