CNN’s Abby Phillip Is Pregnant, Expecting Baby Girl With Husband Marcus Richardson

The announcement comes nearly three years after Phillip and Richardson tied the knot. The couple lives in Washington, D.C. with their dog Booker T., and they’ve been together for almost a decade.

“Look, if you’re in this business, you can’t do it without someone who is flexible, because your life is just a mess,” Phillip explained. “It’s unpredictable, it’s busy, it’s ever-changing. And he’s just always like, ‘What do you need? How can I help you?’ I remember one of our first dates—we were supposed to meet up and I left my wallet at home and I was an hour and a half late. He just waited and wasn’t pissed off. I swear to God, I knew then.”
