Nadine Samonte happily shared on Instagram that she is expecting another baby. The actress is happy for the gift of life since it’s been difficult for her to get pregnant.
According to an article by Smart Parenting, Nadine has antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APAS), an autoimmune disorder that occurs when the body’s immune system makes abnormal antibodies that attack and damage tissues or cells. Aside from APAS, Nadine also has polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which is a hormonal disorder common among women of reproductive age.
“I’m praying na sana wala na pero kung meron pa im still thankful kay Lord kasi my pregnancy right now is really unexpected. Thank you so much Lord for this amazing gift from you. I’m praying that our baby will be okay, healthy and safe,” she wrote.
Nadine, who married businessman Richard Chua in 2013, gave birth to their first child Heather Sloane in 2016.
