Eva Marcille Is Pregnant

Model/actress Eva Marcille is gon' be a momma! America's Next Top Model season 3 winner, who has had a very successful career since being on that show, and her  boyfriend, singer/songwriter Kevin McCall will be welcoming their first child into the world later this year.

South Africans may only remember Eva from ANTM but the model has been making a name for herself as an actress. She has appeared on popular shows like The Game, Everybody Hates Chris, Smallville and Tyler Perry's House Of Payne. 

She also had a minor role on Chris Rock's film, I Think I Love My Wife. 

As for the name change... (we knew her on ANTM as Eva Pigford), she revealed that she changed her name for acting purposes; Marcille is her middle name, an amalgam of "Marjorie" and "Lucille," her grandmothers' names.

In 2009 Eva was engaged to Tyler Perry's House of Payne star Lance Gross who she had been dating since 2005. They broke off their engagement and relationship in 2010.

She has been dating Kevin McCall since dumping rapper FloRida last year.

 

Eva, who is five months pregnant, told BET.com,

“Being able to bring a life into the world is every woman’s dream but for me it’s more than just a dream it is a magical, mystical journey which I get to share with this amazing man.”

She adds,

“Kevin is the only man who I would share this moment in life with.”

“My life continues to be a bundle of incredible experiences,” says Marcille. “I get to do this incredible show on BET and I get to be a mom and live this amazing life that God has bestowed upon me. Who could ask for anything more?”

Congrats to the happy couple!
