@KingstonsMom  .......  In the article did he make any reference to what type of Dad he would be?

He is a dad and he and Katy both are pictured quite often with his son Flynn with Miranda Kerr.

 

Orlando and Miranda have a very successful co-parenting relationship and they have family vacations together with Flynn, Orlando, Katy, Miranda and Miranda's beau Evan Spiegel, co-founder of Snapchat, and their 2 children together.

 

One big happy family, kudos to them!

Dont act so aghast! Lots of brides in your day were rushed to the altar because of a baby on the way or sent to visit a sick relative for nine months.

 I wish her the best. I hope she tones her eccentric behavior for the child's sake.

Never being married is cheaper than divorcing later.

Re: Katy Perry Announces Pregnancy

We all know that there are no guarantees to marriage and there were never were.  People still get married, of course, but not because they feel they must be married to start a family.  We've seen the divorces, the infidelity, the dead beat dads, the women who sacrifice careers to be homemakers and then regret that decision for the rest of the lives.  Today marriage is not linked to having a family.  You can have one without the other and be perfectly happy.  Even more so for the wealthy.   It's the obligatory naked pregnancy photos that I don't understand...LOL   Do they think if we don't see the belly, we won't believe they are really pregnant?

Katy and Orlando have announced that they have postponed their planned June wedding in Japan, due to coronavirus and her being pregnant.

This reminds me of a friend of mine from high school, when she told her late mother that she was going to have a baby.  She told her mom, "Guess what?  You're going to be a grandma" to which her mother dryly replied, "I was hoping I'd be a mother-in-law first"! 

 

She never did marry the father, but he's always been an involved co-parent with her & is close to his daughter.

 

That "oops" baby is now 43 & an attorney with the SEC & a married mom of 4 boys herself.

Couples have been having children or least getting pregnant before marriage for as long as marriage has existed.  People just hid the pregnancies.  A daughter went to "visit" her grandmother or aunt.  A couple married quickly before the mom to be was "showing".  The term shot gun wedding has been around a long time.
