Krystal Nielson Is Pregnant, Expecting First Child with Boyfriend Miles
Krystal Nielson is going to be a mom!
Krystal announced her pregnancy in a YouTube video published November 11. She teased the news in an Instagram video that shows her anxiously awaiting the results of her pregnancy test in her bathroom.
The YouTube video was filmed August 9, 2020, and begins with Krystal taking deep breaths. She says, "That would be f--king bananas. That would be so bananas if I was pregnant."
She adds, "If I saw a no, I would feel relieved and I would be like, 'Okay not yet.' I might go make myself a skinny margarita. If it’s a yes, I’m going to freak out. I have 30 more seconds. My whole life would change."
She continues taking deep breaths and then holds up the test that reads "pregnant" and starts crying. Krystal later shows her sitting in bed with her boyfriend Miles Bowles and explains she doesn't "feel too scared because I feel like it all lined up."
A few weeks after her initial test, Krystal shows off her growing baby belly in a mirror selfie video, expressing, "I'm honestly ready."
She shares in a voiceover towards the end of the video, "I can't wait to fill my heart with so much love and creating little pieces of me in this world and teaching them about love and the love I never had."
Krystal went public on Instagram with her new boyfriend on October 6. She posted a photo of him holding her and wrote, "This year has been full of ups and downs. Loss, uncertainty, and constant anxiety over when 'life' will get back to normal. But I realized that life isn’t meant for us to replay... but rather for us to embrace, evolve and create new experiences that will continue to shape us into who we are meant to be."

Her caption continued, "I’ve learned this year to lean into love...To let go over the constant anxiety over what people think of me...And to stop putting MY life, and the things that me make ME happy, on hold. I am sooooo excited for this next chapter. Thank you to everyone for your support along the way."
