WWE superstar known as Carmella announced that she is expecting her first child with her fellow wrestling colleague, husband, Matt Polinsky, on Monday.
Making an appearance on "Good Morning America," Carmella, whose real name is Leah Van Dale, announced the news.
While it’s certainly an exciting time for the 35-year-old wrestler, she said she is "cautiously optimistic" about the situation because she experienced two miscarriages last year, including an ectopic pregnancy.

Van Dale said that she got the news in March that she was expecting once more, calling it "a whirlwind."
