‘Ye Hai Mohabbatein’ actor Karan Patel recently announced that he and his wife Ankita Bhargava are expecting their first child. Though there were lot of speculations in the media about this; however the couple chose to announce it on ‘Mother’s Day’ (13^th May, 2018).

Talking about motherhood, Ankita Bhargava said, “Surprisingly, there’s no major changes I am witnessing so far; no morning sickness, no craving for food (laughs). Honestly, it’s difficult to describe this phase of our life in words. All I can say is that it’s a beautiful phase for both of us. We had been trying for babies and this confirmation has really made us very happy.”

Ankita is in her first trimester and is currently enjoying all the pampering from her family members and hubby. “So far, I am just craving for regular food, but my family members are ready to cook whatever I crave for (laughs). They are very much excited and I love all their attention. The pampering has just begun,” Ankita concluded.

Talking about parenthood to one of the leading tabloid, Karan Patel said, “It's sinking in slowly, and I am ecstatic. I can't go through the emotions and transformations, which Ankita is going through. It's a beautiful phase for her as she will graduate from a wife to a mother. I plan to spoil our baby silly with love and pampering once he/she is born. We would like to have two kids - both Ankita and I are the only children of our parents and we understand the need for a sibling."

The actor would love to have a daughter and spoil her with lots of love and pampering.

"I would love to have a daughter, as baby girls are their fathers' angels. I am looking forward to changing nappies and waking up at odd hours," said the actor.
