It’s
been a great week for fans of hit show Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and it’s just
got even better after Melissa Fumero, who plays Amy Santiago, announced her pregnancy
on Instagram.
With a picture showing her slightly scared face, Fumero posted with the caption
‘Oh yeah, I’m hella pregnant.’ However, it hasn’t been easy for the
37-year-old.
While
announcing the pregnancy, the actress noted that it has been ‘way harder’
compared to her first pregnancy. Yet, she noted that she now feels ready to
share the news after receiving a chiropractic adjustment and massage. She joked
‘so I feel a little bit cute today’ and finished with the hashtags
#babyboynumerodos and #herewegoagain.
Of
course, Melissa is married to Power actor David Fumero and the pair had their
first child just over three years ago. For those who follow either Melissa or
David, you’ll know that Enzo plays a prominent role and it’s clear the family
are extremely happy. Now set to become a foursome, we hope the Fumeros will
continue to share their lives with us as Brooklyn Nine-Nine itself
continues to thrive.
Brooklyn
Nine-Nine Returns for Season Eight
Not
so long ago, fans revolted after it was announced that Brooklyn
Nine-Nine
had been dropped by Fox. As soon as news reached social media platforms, there
was outrage not only in the US but in the UK and many other countries too.
Fortunately, NBC were listening to what the people were saying and decided to
take advantage of the wave. Soon after, work began on season six as it was
picked back up.
From
here, the show has gone from strength to strength. Not only is season seven
premiering towards the beginning of February next year, it has been announced
this week the team will be returning for an eighth season too. After the news
was revealed, the social media accounts from the show posted images of the
group all holding up eight fingers.
Over
the years, one of the strengths of the show has been the committed cast. By the
looks of it, this will continue which means the return of Santiago, Peralta,
Diaz, Jeffords, Holt, and Boyle. Together, the six have appeared in all 132
episodes of the show. Meanwhile, Hitchcock and Scully have together appeared in
130.
Meanwhile,
who can forget Gina Linetti, played by Chelsea Peretti, who has 117 episodes to
her name? Earlier this year, she announced her departure from the show and this
was the first major casualty that fans had to experience. Soon after, she
revealed that it wasn’t
entirely her decision to leave.
This being said, there wasn’t any bad blood between either party and that the
‘timing…presented itself.’
Congratulations
to Melissa and David Fumero on the news of their pregnancy. Congratulations to
everybody involved with Brooklyn Nine-Nine who put smiles on millions of
faces around the world. Are you looking forward to the seventh and eighth
seasons?
