CT Television News Anchor Announces She's Having A Baby

CONNECTICUT — Veteran television news anchor Nicole Nalepa, who joined WFSB-TV in 2013, welcomed her first child, George, in 2019. On Friday, she announced that he is about to become a big brother.

Nalepa, her husband, Andrew, and George will welcome a second child later this summer, she said on-air on Friday.

"We're not finding out the gender," she said. "I know everyone's going to be saying, 'Boy?' 'Girl?' We're just going to hold out once again. We didn't find out with George, so it's going to be worth the wait."

Before joining WFSB, Nalepa was an anchor at WWLP-TV in Springfield, Massachusetts, and after graduating from Westfield State University, she held a post-grad internship at CBS News in New York on the "Evening News with Katie Couric."

During Friday's announcement, Nalepa showed photos of George next to a sign that read "Did you hear? I am going to be a big brother!"

"He couldn't be more excited," she said.
