“Guess what…” Alanna captioned the pic of herself displaying her baby bump while wearing a chic white dress and sunglasses. So exciting! Brick also posted a pic of Alanna showing off her bump in a sexy bikini next to him, and wrote: “Baby season.” There’s no hiding it any longer!
UPDATE: Alanna gave birth to her first child on Nov. 12. Congrats to her and Brick!
Alanna, who plays Tara on the hit AMC show, had been strategically covering up her growing bump in her pics before. Whether she used a soda cup or a book to cover up her belly, she totally kept it a secret! Perhaps the biggest clue before her reveal was her big appetite! She posted a pic of her food on July 24 and wrote: “Oh boy, do I love to eat.”

While fans are over the moon happy for Alanna, some are concerned what this will mean for Tara’s fate on the zombie drama. It’s a possibility that her character could be killed off so she can focus on her pregnancy — or she’ll remain filming while pregnant and will conceal her bump. Let’s not forget that when her costar Sonequa Martin-Green was pregnant with her first child during season five they hid her baby bump!
The Walking Dead‘s sixth season premiers on Oct. 11 at 9pm with a 90-minute episode.
