Mummy Pig, as it turns out, will be welcoming another baby girl into the world very soon.
Peppa Pig’s mother first broke the news of her pregnancy in late February, sharing the “joyous baby news” in a podcast interview with Kylie Kelce, host of “Not Gonna Lie,” on Feb. 27. Peppa and her little brother George also made a cameo on Kelce’s show.
“Mummy’s on a call, you two. Sorry, where was I? Oh yes, the announcement,” Mummy Pig said. “Well, I’m thrilled to say I’m pregnant. Baby #3 is due in the summer.”
Mummy Pig’s gender reveal, not discussed on the show, was featured on an episode of “Peppa Pig Tales” released Friday by Walmart.
Peppa and George, who weren’t sure about whether they wanted a little brother or a little sister, found out their sibling’s gender by catching a balloon that held the answer. Audiences will get to see Peppa (and George) step into a bigger role with her new little sibling arriving in Season 11 later this year.
“As a big sister, Peppa Pig’s relationship with little brother George has provided sweet moments throughout the years, as well as many important lessons about confidence and how to be a good sibling,” Hasbro said in a news release. “As the new family dynamic develops, Peppa will have many opportunities to show George the ropes alongside viewers who may be adapting to changes and ‘big feelings’ in their own families.”
New Peppa Pig toys tied to ‘growing family’
Hasbro is celebrating Mummy Pig’s “growing family” with a new collection of toys and accessories available for purchase exclusively in-store at Walmart and Walmart.com from May 30 through July 31.
A few toys, including Oinks & Snuggles interactive baby doll, Peppa’s Dress Up Wardrobe and Peppa’s Family Five Pack figure set, will be available to pre-order on April 25. Peppa Pig: Greatest Hits on CD, another Walmart exclusive, is also available for purchase.
New products featuring the new baby will be available at most major retailers by Aug. 1.
Mummy Pig talks pregnancy, big feelings
Kelce, also pregnant with her fourth daughter at the time, extended her congratulations and asked how Mummy Pig’s other children, Peppa and George, were handling the news.
“In my experience, kids can have lots of different reactions to news like this,” Kelce said.
Mummy Pig revealed that Peppa and George were taking “everything in their stride,” telling Kelce that Peppa refers to her as an “even bigger mummy” and herself as an “even bigger sister.”
Though Mummy Pig and her husband, Daddy Pig, experienced a “few big feelings” from both Peppa and George, they do have conversations and reassure them often. Mummy Pig was also feeling all the feels, telling Kelce she was excited, nervous, often a bit nauseous and couldn’t go five minutes without needing to go to the restroom.
“It’s an exciting change, but it is a big one,” Mummy Pig said.
“The announcement of Mummy Pig’s pregnancy aligns perfectly with the Kelce family’s own joyful anticipation of a new arrival, making it a truly magical moment of parallel beginnings,” the news release stated.
Kelce welcomed her own bundle of joy, daughter Finnley, on March 30.
