Reality star Brittney Taylor, who appears on the VH1 series Love and Hip Hop New York, has announced that she is expecting.

Prior to posting her announcement, Brittney hadn’t posted on Instagram since July. The reality star had been quiet online following some very pubic and messy drama with her fellow Love & Hip Hop New York co-star Remy Ma. Brittney had accused Remy of physically assaulting her.

Currently, Brittney is not dating anyone publicly at the moment and has not revealed who the father of her child is.

Brittney’s co-star Bianca Bonnie is also expecting a baby. The news of Brittney being pregnant as well caused fans to react unkindly. They claimed Brittney was copying Bianca by getting pregnant. The reality star took to Instagram to shut down the trolls. “Her beautiful blessing has nothing to do with my beautiful blessing. I am genuinely happy for her,” Brittney wrote in a text-based image she shared. In the caption, she revealed that she had considered not going public with her pregnancy because of the trolls online. Ultimately she decided to share and she’s showing that she is not going to stand for negativity regarding her pregnancy.

Congratulations to Brittney! We wish her all the best as she prepares to welcome a baby into the world.
