Former UFC women's strawweight champion Carla Esparza published a new post on her social media account announcing her pregnancy.
We've been keeping it a secret for 14 weeks. We are expecting a little cookie monster in September 2023! Looking forward to the new chapter of my life... and hope to be back in early to mid 2024.
