Elisabeth Ovesen, formerly known as Karrine "Supahead" Steffans, just announced that she is pregnant.
The former video vixen and now novelist revealed she is expecting a child with well-known chef Kwame Onwuachi.
The novelist and former video vixen shared the news of her second pregnancy on Instagram. This will be her first kid with renowned chef Kwame Onwuachi.
The 44-year-old mom-to-be shared a photo of a positive pregnancy test
with the caption, “For some women, women like me, these two lines are
scary. They conjure feelings of fear and anticipation, anxiety and
confusion.”
She was honest about the anxiety of her prior pregnancy, which involved trips where it was literally either her life or death.
She is eager for what lies ahead despite everything.
”Memories of past reproductive and pregnancy traumas rise to the surface,” she continued. “Frantic
calls to the doctor, emergency appointments, blood work and ultrasounds
— not just to check on the new life developing inside, but the scars,
the tumors, the cysts. Appointments about life and death. Discussions
about the dangers associated with pregnancy and birth at this age, with
this trauma. Bed rest is certain and nothing else.”
The best-selling author went on to thank her partner, 33-year-old chef Kwame Onwuachi, for “the most exciting, most terrifying gift.”
She continued, “Thank you, @chefkwameonwuachi for the most
exciting, most terrifying gift. I don’t know what comes next, but I know
I can’t do it without you. I hope everyone enjoys their NYE plans.
I’ll be in bed and off social for a bit … praying for a miracle. (These
nails tho)”
Chef Onwuachi, based in Los
Angeles, is a Nigerian-American Bronx native who appeared as a
contestant on Bravo’s “Top Chef” in 2015 and returned for several
episodes as a guest judge. Over the years, he has been recognized for
his cooking abilities by Food & Wine magazine where they named him
one of its Best New Chefs in 2019, and he was named the ”Rising Star
Chef Of The Year” by the James Beard Foundation.
He released a memoir titled "Notes from a Young Black Chef" in 2019.
In 2021, he served as a judge for "Top Chef Amateurs" and made an appearance on an episode of Selena Gomez's HBO Max series, Selena + Chef.
Kwame was formerly engaged to Mya Allen, who starred in season six of "Summer House."
After six months of dating, he proposed to Mya in 2016 at her family's Boston home.
Six months after she went to film "Summer House" in July of that year, the couple called it quits on their engagement in late December 2020 or early 2021.
He will soon become a father for the first time.
His child with Karrine will have a sibling because the former video vixen and rapper Kool G Rap share an older child, Naim Wilson.
