Palmer expressed her excitement and showed off her baby bump. In a lighthearted monologue, she teased, “Even though some people feel a little weird about me having a baby ’cause I was a child actor, I just wanna say, look, I’m 29, I’m grown, I have sex, I own a home, I stormed the Capitol on January 6, you know? Things adults do.”
