Kelly Piquet is overjoyed to be expecting her second child, which is her first with
Max Verstappen. On social media, Verstappen's girlfriend shared an emotional message thanking her for all the kind messaging. She also sent a heartfelt message to those who might find this kind of announcement difficult.
Kelly Piquet's emotional message after pregnancy announcement:
"Cannot express how happy we are. Thank you for all the sweet, warm messages," Kelly opens in her
Instagram stories. Earlier on Friday, she and
Max Verstappen announced the happy news, after which congratulations, including from the
Formula 1 world, poured in for both Verstappen and the daughter of three-time
F1 world champion
Nelson Piquet.
In her emotional message, Verstappen's girlfriend also paid attention to those with an unfulfilled desire for children.
"I understand how these announcements can be challenging for those who are longing for a child. While such news is often a joyous occasion, it can also evoke feelings of sadness, frustration, or longing in those who are struggling with this. If that's you, I'm sending all my love, my deepest hugs and magic your way." Kelly Piquet concludes.
