Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson has officially confirmed one of the most heartwarming rumors in sports and entertainment this year: his wife, Grammy-winning rapper Megan Thee Stallion, is eight weeks pregnant with twins. The announcement, shared in an emotional Instagram post late Sunday night, has sent waves of joy and congratulations across the globe, with Thompson declaring himself “the happiest man alive” in a caption that quickly went viral.
The couple, who quietly married in a private ceremony in Houston in summer 2025, had kept the pregnancy under wraps until now. Thompson posted a series of nine black-and-white photos: one showing Megan’s growing baby bump cradled in his hands, another of the couple laughing on a beach at sunset, and several close-ups of ultrasound images clearly showing two distinct heartbeats. In the caption, he poured out his love and gratitude in nine deeply personal quotes that moved millions to tears.
“I am the happiest man,” he began. “You’ve given me everything I never knew I needed — love, strength, laughter, and now two little miracles. I promise to protect you and our babies with every fiber of my being.” He continued with tributes to Megan’s resilience (“You’ve fought battles most people can’t imagine and still shine brighter than anyone I know”), her artistry (“Your music moves the world, but your heart moves mine”), and their shared future (“I can’t wait to see them run the court and the stage — they’re already champions because they’re ours”).
The post has been liked more than 12 million times in under 24 hours, with comments flooded by fellow athletes, musicians, and fans. LeBron James wrote, “Congrats brother — twins?! You’re gonna need all that Splash Brother energy now 😂❤️.” Beyoncé posted a simple “Auntie is ready 🐝👶👶,” while Warriors teammate Stephen Curry added, “Family just got bigger and better. Love y’all.”
Megan Thee Stallion, 30, shared her own emotional response on Instagram Stories, posting a photo of the ultrasound with the caption: “We’re growing love times two. Thank you for all the love — we feel it.” She has been open in the past about wanting children and balancing her career with family life, and sources close to the couple say the pregnancy was a long-awaited blessing after years of career focus and personal challenges.
The twins are expected in late summer 2026, with the couple planning to divide time between the Bay Area and Houston. Thompson, who has spoken candidly about his desire to start a family after years of injuries and career uncertainty, has already begun adjusting his training schedule and has hinted at taking paternity leave when the babies arrive.
The announcement comes at a high point for both: Thompson is enjoying a strong season with the Warriors, averaging 18.2 points and shooting over 40% from three, while Megan is in the midst of her Megan: Act II tour and preparing new music. Fans have flooded social media with well-wishes, memes of Thompson “splashing” diaper changes, and tributes to the couple’s journey from friendship to marriage to parenthood.
In a world often focused on drama and headlines, Thompson’s nine quotes stand out for their sincerity and vulnerability. “I never thought I’d find someone who makes me want to be better every single day,” he wrote. “You did that. And now we get to do it together — forever.”
For a couple who have both faced public scrutiny, personal loss, and professional highs and lows, the news of twins feels like a beautiful new chapter. As Thompson put it in his final quote: “I’m not just the happiest man today — I’m the luckiest. Thank you, baby. I love you more than words.”
Congratulations to Klay, Megan, and their growing family — the internet is crying happy tears right alongside you.
