TLC's Chilli is taking on a new role soon, as the singer will become a grandmother for the first time at the age of 52.
Chilli, whose real name is Rozonda Thomas, is entering a new phase of her life as her son, Tron Austin, 26, and his wife, Jeong Ah Wang, are expecting their first child.
Austin announced the news on Instagram with a photo featuring a board reading, "Hello @Baby Luna due March 2024 xo," above a box with an ultrasound photo and a note in Korean that said, "Thank you for coming to Mom and Dad."
The board was also surrounded by a bunch of needles and vials as well as a baby onesie that read, "Made with a lot of faith & a little science," with the positive pregnancy test placed on top.
The couple also included a video of the ultrasound and a photo of a Christian Dior bag that Austin got for his wife for their fifth anniversary.
Austin wrote in the caption about the couple's journey to become pregnant, "WE ARE PREGNANT!! 👶🏻FINALLY WE CAN OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCE OUR DAUGHTER 🌙 LUNA WANG AUSTIN 🌙 will be here in March 2024!"
To his wife, he added, "I am so proud of you witnessing you going through so much just to get our beautiful baby here I am in awe of your efforts and I am blessed and honored by Jesus himself to begin this journey with you I love you so much you are going to be the best mother EVER !"
In the earnest message, Austin revealed that the couple endured two HSG, or Hysterosalpingography, procedures, a hysteroscopy, removal of scar tissue, and an egg retrieval procedure, while also going through a miscarriage.
"We will be the best parents for our little one and we just cannot wait for her to be here 👶🏻🥰 🤰 P.S HAPPY 5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY BABY I hope you enjoy the diaper bag hehe😉👶🏻❤️🐉," Austin concluded. He and Wang have reportedly been together for five years, tying the knot last winter.
