Pregnant Sophia Grace disclosed the gender of the first kid she had with her longtime secret partner.

The Ellen DeGeneres Show star announced in a Nov. 5 YouTube video that she’s expecting a baby boy.

“I am having a boy!” she announced. “When I first found out that I was having a boy, I honestly wasn’t shocked, because I just felt like from the start that I was going to be a boy mom.”

By slicing into a cake and popping a balloon in her film, Sophia Grace made the gender reveal

The 19-year-announcement old’s that she was expecting her first child last month caught her followers off guard.

“So I am 21 weeks today,” Sophia Grace said in an Oct. 22 video, “and the reason why I left it so long is because I always want to make sure that everything’s completely fine and that everything’s safe.”

Sophia Grace, who gained notoriety in 2011 along with her cousin Rosie McClelland, held off on informing her 3.4 million subscribers about her decision to become a mother, but she promptly told her longterm partner.

“It’s part of both of us really,” she told E! News in an exclusive interview. “We both have just as much to do with the situation as each other. I definitely owed it to tell him straightaway.”

However, she’s keeping mum on his identity. “Because I have always been in the spotlight, I feel like I want something just to keep to myself,” she explained. “Just something that I can keep private and that I can just enjoy myself and not have to share it with everyone.”

But they are looking forward to sharing this next chapter together.

“I definitely think he’ll be a really great dad,” she said. “I feel like when we met each other, we were quite young. We’ve sort of grown up together really…It will definitely change us into proper adults and then we can grow up together and have a family.”
