Quinta Brunson is putting pregnancy speculation in detention.
The Abbott Elementary star was quick to shut down baby rumors, which were sparked online when she wore a bulky sweater that seemed to accentuate her stomach to a New Year’s Eve celebration.
Hours after snapping a photo of herself in a white, knitted pullover with a matching beanie and a festive headband reading “2026,” Quinta wrote on her Instagram Story, “Not preggers. Sweater in odd position.”
The 36-year-old jokingly added, “Not 2026 already getting my ass.”
And Quinta is not a fan of chatter about her personal life.
“People have this idea that people in the public eye want the public to know their every move,” she told Bustle in June. “None of us do. I promise you.”
That’s why she was annoyed by the narrative that she “announced her divorce” from Kevin Anik, when in actuality she had quietly filed for legal separation in March after three years of marriage.
“I didn’t announce anything,” she noted, explaining that her divorce papers were simply in the court’s “public record.”
