Former “Pinoy Big Brother” housemate Dionne Monsanto has revealed that is expecting her first child with her non-showbiz husband Ryan Stadler.
Monsanto announced that she is 20 weeks pregnant by showing her baby bump on her Instagram page today, Dec. 5. The former actress, who also turned a year older today, told fans that her pregnancy is her “best birthday gift so far.”
“This year has given me [so] much!” she said. “I moved to a new country, learned a new language, discovered new interests, got engaged, married my best friend [and] love of my life and together, we traveled [and] discovered different countries [and] cultures. But this may be our most exciting adventure yet!”
“I have never been this in love with life, and with love itself. I am so wildly grateful to the universe for conspiring in my favor,” she added.
Fellow celebrities extended their congratulations to Monsanto, including Angelica Panganiban, Rachel Peters and Devon Seron.

Monsanto got engaged to Stadler in February this year. She announced later that same month that she is retiring from showbiz, with “Hello Stranger: The Movie” being her last film ever.
The couple then got married in Switzerland last March, after years of being in a long distance relationship.
Monsanto started her showbiz career as a contestant in “Pinoy Big Brother: Season 2” back in 2007. She has since appeared in several TV shows including “George and Cecil,” “Lovers in Paris” and “Lobo.” JB
