Meghan McCain is expanding her brood.
The television personality, who shares daughters Liberty Sage, 4, and Clover Jade, 2, with husband Ben Domenech, recently confirmed she is pregnant with their third baby, revealing the news while interviewing Vice President JD Vance’s wife Usha Vance.
“I wanted to let you in on something that’s private that I haven’t talked about publicly yet,” Meghan shared in a June 23 preview clip of her 2Way’s Citizen McCain podcast episode set for release June 25. “I have two little girls. They are almost 5 and almost 3. And I just am entering my second trimester, I’m pregnant with my third.”
And for Meghan, the word of her third pregnancy is “nervous,” as she and her husband welcome her first baby boy.
“I’m very nervous about having a boy,” she admitted. “And I’m very nervous about having three children. Very.”
But the late senator John McCain’s daughter Meghan felt like she could confide in Usha—who is mom to kids Ewan, 7, Vivek, 4 and Mirabel, 2, with JD—who gave insight into her own experience as a mom of three.
“I love having three kids,” Usha assured. “I’m a huge proponent of it. Obviously people want to have different family sizes for different reasons but what I’ve really enjoyed about three kids is that it’s just enough for them all to be kind of a pack.”
As the Second Ladynoted, she’s already witnessed the benefits of her kids leaning on each other.
“The oldest will take care of the younger ones,” she explained. “The youngest is so motivated to be like the older two that she’s basically self-sufficient and always has been.”
And the 39-year-old assured that the transition into three kids from two was “shockingly the easiest of all.”
As she told Meghan, “I think you’re in for a surprise.”
For her own part, The Viewalum has been honest about the very real struggles with motherhood, noting that she wants to make sure she’s honest about her parenting journey.
“It’s one of those things people sort of tell you that you should just deal with silently or should be embarrassed about,” she told Parents in 2024 of the early days after having a baby. “For me, it has not been healthy to see women in full hair and makeup giving birth.”
