Justine Lupe had a little secret while filming Netflix’s hit show Nobody Wants This.
On Thursday, the 35-year-old actress revealed on Instagram that she was over five months pregnant during the shoot for the series, which stars Kristen Bell and Adam Brody.
The new mom shared that she not only kept her baby news from viewers but also attempted to conceal her pregnancy from the cast and crew.
“Nobody Wants This is out on @netflix today! This show carried me through my first 5+ months of pregnancy with so much warmth,” Lupe revealed in her caption.
She continued to share her gratitude for “having a fully pregnant showrunner in @erinfoster, a relentless champion for motherhood in @kristenanniebell, a DP in @adrianpengcorreia who knows how to work the s— out of camera to make me look, well, not pregnant.”
Lupe then shared the funny story of how her cast and crew found out she was expecting, saying, “And a cast and crew who supported me from the moment my Gucci skirt ripped open in both the front and back at 2am when they had no idea I was pregnant and thought I was just rapidly falling apart…”
“I had so much fun with this show and with Morgan in particular. I hope you have fun with it too,” she added.
Her post featured a collection of behind-the-scenes photos from the show’s filming, including a sweet shot of Lupe with her costars Bell and Jackie Tohn.
In one adorable video, Lupe is seen showcasing her baby bump in a white tank top and low-rise sweatpants during a photo shoot.
She also displayed her bare bump in another mirror selfie, lifting her shirt and flashing a peace sign.
