Still smiling for no reason. With our hearts full of gratitude. We are expecting. DivekLoveUpgraded. 10saalBaad."The hashtag said everything. Ten years. One upgrade.

The baby is expected around mid-June, which means she was already six months along when she decided to go public with the news.She explained that keeping it quiet was a conscious choice. She said she and Vivek wanted to wait for the right moment before telling anyone outside their immediate family. The fact that she does not step out very often also helped the secret stay intact longer than it might have for someone more publicly visible day to day.Vivek Heard It FirstDivyanka spoke about the moment she told her husband. She said she shared the news with Vivek first and then the two of them called their parents together.She described the reaction simply, everyone was overjoyed. The parents on both sides were thrilled and the couple themselves say they feel genuinely blessed that things worked out the way they did.She said in the interview, "Vivek and I wanted to have a baby at this time. We tried and the reports came back positive. We are extremely happy and consider ourselves truly blessed."How the News Eventually Got OutThe secret had a natural expiry date. Vivek attended an event and people there noticed Divyanka had not been seen out in a while. Questions were asked. Speculation started. And once the whispers began circulating the couple decided it was time to step forward and confirm it themselves rather than let the rumours do the talking.Divyanka also mentioned that the baby will be born in Mumbai.Ten Years in the MakingDivyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya got married in 2016. Their relationship played out partly in public — the two met on the sets of Yeh Hai Mohabbatein where Divyanka was the lead, and their wedding was one of the most talked about moments in Indian television that year.A decade later the next chapter is beginning. And going by the response on social media, fellow actors, fans who have followed Divyanka since her earliest television days, people who grew up watching Ishita on their family television sets every evening, the happiness around this news feels genuinely widespread.Mid-June is not far away now. And by all accounts the wait has already been more than worth it.
