Actress Brigitte Nielsen has revealed to fans that she’s pregnant at the age of 54.

Nielsen shared the surprising news with her 99.8k Instagram followers, in a series of posts that built up to the big reveal.

This will be the star’s fifth child, after Julian, 34, Killian, 28, Douglas, 25, and Raoul, 23.

This, however, is the first with her (fifth) husband Mattia Dessi, after the pair got married in 2006.

The first was a throwback to the kids she already had, without giving away her current news: ‘family throw back #brigitte #tbt #nielsen #proudmom’

Nielsen has previously been married to Raoul Meyer between 1993 and 2003, Sebastian Copeland from 1990 to 1992, famously to Sylvester Stallone between 1985 and 1987, and finally to Kasper Winding in 1983 for a year.

She’s also dated Flavor Flav and has had a one-year romance with action star Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Nielsen and Dessi have been together since 2005, marrying a year later and have been together ever since.

Only recently did Hollywood couple Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig announce they were pregnant, with Weisz being 48 at the time as a host of well wishes were sent their way.
