Gina Rodriguez and Joe LoCicero expecting their second baby

Time of India11 hours ago
Gina Rodriguez has a second child on the way. At a an event for the Katie Taylor Vs Amanda Serrano 3 fight, on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden, the "Jane the Virgin" actress recently flaunted her growing baby bump.
She was wearing a black flowery gown, and the bump was noticeable, according to E! News. Joe LoCicero, her husband, joined her after a few pictures. Placing his hands on her bump, he grinned. The gesture was evident even if they didn't say anything.
The couple have been married since 2019. They met a few years before that, in 2016, on the set of Jane the Virgin. He had a short role in one episode.
Gina and Joe share a son, named Charlie.
He was born in 2022, they haven't shared much about him. No big photos or revelations. Even though Rodriguez posted a bit about him, they mostly kept things private.
'I wanna post everything about him but I limit it. I know at some point I'm gonna have to stop because it's his life, but I'm just so in love,' she told People in January.
She said Charlie is very expressive. 'His communication is unbelievable. And I'm so grateful for it because he communicates what he wants, what he needs, his boundaries-he's teaching me boundaries,' she said.
When the couple got engaged in 2018, Gina Rodriguez chose to keep things private, stating to E! News that she wanted to keep the things under wraps as it is a private moment between the couple. "That I'm gonna keep to myself, that I don't think I'm gonna ever share that,' she said. 'Because there's only so many things that you get to own when you become a public figure," she added.
She explained that being in the spotlight makes it hard to keep anything personal. 'The blessing is that you get to do what you love every day and you have so many incredible people supporting you. But then the little curse is that nothing's a secret anymore, you don't get to hold anything to yourself. So I'm gonna hold that one for as long as I can," Rodriguez explained.
Now, with another baby on the way, the couple seems to be staying true to that approach. A quiet reveal. No statement. Just a moment they shared on their own terms.

Weekly Horoscope July 13–19: Mercury retrograde in Leo to create chaos and confusion for multiple zodiac signs

Your weekly horoscope is here for July 13 through July 19, 2025. As Mercury retrograde begins in passionate Leo on July 17, continuing until August 10, expect life to slow, rewind, or feel slightly askew. This transit invites second chances in love and creativity, but also forces reality checks in relationships, parenting, and ambition. Prepare for mixed signals, and perhaps, an old love story revived. Solar Shift in Leo Mercury's backward motion through Leo shines a spotlight on themes of romance, self-expression, and joy. Love affairs, creative outlets, and even children may reappear in unexpected ways. Old flames or unfinished chapters may resurface, offering chances to reconcile or reflect. Yet under the glow of retrograde, optimism can turn to illusion, or the opposite: rigid frustration. Be alert and adaptable this week, as mentioned in a report by People. Aries (March 21–April 19): Matters of the Heart in Flux Curiosity could swirl into confusion, Aries. Whether love, children, or passion projects are on your mind, take time to pause and reassess. If reconnection beckons, now is among the most favorable moments for it. Step back first—then decide if you move forward. Taurus (April 20–May 20): Domestic Clarity Demanded You are the family anchor, Taurus, but this week surprises may challenge what feels secure at home. Real estate, living arrangements, or emotional dynamics could demand a close review. Don't rush your response—slowly untangle outdated comfort in favor of sustainable peace. Gemini (May 21–June 20): Words Won't Match Actions Communication may feel misaligned this week, Gemini—especially regarding plans or travel. Notes and intentions may not translate. Precision and patience are key. You may also bump into someone from your past—perhaps a sibling or friend. A chance to reconnect is in the stars. Live Events Cancer (June 21–July 22): Financial Foundations Shaking Your usual financial resilience could feel shaky now, Cancer. Spendings may outpace your expectations or old arrangements may unravel. Revisit budget lines, revisit past income avenues, or consider rekindling old entrepreneurial sparks. It may take effort, but rebuilding is possible. Leo (July 23–August 22): Internal Compass Realigned As the focal point of this retrograde, Leo, your world may feel turned sideways. Old lives or past lovers may drift back into view. Use this hall-of-mirrors energy to recalibrate your direction—your heart and creativity can benefit from selective rewinds. Virgo (August 23–September 22): Dream vs. Delusion Reality could feel blurry, Virgo. Past grievances or secrets may resurface, potentially sparking anxiety or emotional discomfort. If health or mental unrest creeps in, don't hesitate to seek clarity and counsel. A quiet reveal might appear—handle it gently. Libra (September 23–October 22): A Reunion in the Air The stars smile on social reconnections, Libra. Whether it's an old friend or ex-partner, this week welcomes joyful reunion. Plans may shift—especially for passion projects—but listen to your heart. Compassionate conversations may deepen bonds. Scorpio (October 23–November 21): Rethink, Don't Launch Professional ambitions or social aspirations may feel unstable, Scorpio. Now is better suited for strategy over action—return to projects that need refinement. If you're launching something new, delay could be wise until clarity returns. Sagittarius (November 22–December 21): Calm in the Incoming Storm Others may flounder in confusion, but you may find peace in observation, Sagittarius. Uncertainty may swirl around travel or legal matters, but staying calm is your best strategy. Playful resilience could outlast the turbulence. Capricorn (December 22–January 19): Trust and Transparency Tested Issues of intimacy, shared resources, or emotional exchange may feel off-balance. Delays or unmet trust may surface now. Tread gently—and avoid confrontation unless necessary. Invisible stress could escalate. Patience and transparency are your allies. Aquarius (January 20–February 18): Compatibility Questioned Partnerships may shift beneath your feet, Aquarius, whether romantic, creative, or business-related. Past companions—love or otherwise—may return. Reflect and decide who still matches your path. Conversations could bring clarity. Pisces (February 19–March 20): Balance Under Review Work-life integration may feel strained. Responsibilities, deadlines, or workplace dynamics could lift pressure points. If burnout looms, scale back. This is a moment to reassess routines. Gentle adjustments may ease tension and reset momentum. Key Dates to Watch July 17: Mercury turns retrograde in Leo, reality may feel unstable. July 18: Social creativity shines, especially around past connections. July 19: Wrap up pending tasks before the week winds down. Astro Action Points Wait Before Acting, retrograde is for review, not initiation. Expect Reappearances, old relationships may return to renegotiate terms. Communicate Carefully, messages may be misunderstood; re-check.

Yet this cosmic slowdown gives you space to reconsider old connections, refine creative paths, and realign ambitions. Expect confusion, but also profound potential, if you move with intention, rather than rushing. Let the week unfold. FAQs What is the major astrological event this week?
