Naomi (wife of Jimmy Uso) is pregnant
Monday Night Raw Naomi announced that she is pregnant with Jimmy Uso. She is said to be seven weeks pregnant, and has surrendered her WWE Women World Championship after the news.
The emotional backstory to the pregnancy
The couple shared the intimate story behind the pregnancy on Steph McMahon What?s Your Story? podcast. Naomi has said that she had an oophorectomy (removal of her right ovary) early in her career and a myomectomy (fibroid removal) in 2020, both of which were additional factors to having difficulty conceiving naturally. It was an unplanned pregnancy but when we heard the beating heart at seven weeks, it all seemed real.
