Riverdale actress Vanessa Morgan and her Chicago White Sox player husband Michael Kopech are reportedly getting divorced, according to TMZ.

The news of their marriage breakdown comes just three days after Vanessa, who plays Toni Topaz on the Netflix series, announced she was pregnant.

According to the US website, which has reportedly seen court documents, baseball player Michael filed to split from Vanessa on June 19.

Vanessa, 28, shared photos from her gender reveal party on Friday, announcing that she would be “welcoming [her] baby boy into the world” in January 2021.

In the exciting post, she included a photo of two positive pregnancy posts and a video from her first ultrasound.

Vanessa revealed to her fans that she found out she was pregnant on the morning of May 20, writing “looking back I’m so happy I took this picture” over the top of a snap of two pregnancy tests.

She explained to her 8.6million Instagram followers: “Was debating keeping this part of my life hidden but I knew people would see pictures eventually with my belly and I wanted you guys to hear it from me.”

The actress did, however, say that she would be keeping the next chapter of her life private.

She added: “I can’t believe how much growth and strength you’ve already given me as your mom. It’s like God knew I needed you, my angel. The universe works in mysterious ways but always times everything the way it was meant to be.”

In some of the other photos, Vanessa could be seen popping a balloon filled with blue powder, however Michael did not feature in the snaps.

There were also cupcakes with pink and blue icing, as well as signs in them reading “here for the sex”.

The duo got engaged during a trip to the picturesque Havasu Falls, Arizona in July 2019.

They got married earlier this year on January 4 at Florida’s Historic Walton House.

Previously, 24-year-old Michael has been linked to reality star Brielle Biermann, who appears on her mother Kim Zolciak-Biermann’s series Don’t Be Tardy.

Vanessa has appeared in Riverdale since its second season, with her character Toni being in a relationship with fan-favourite Cheryl Blossom, played by Madelaine Petsch.
