    Deena Cortese is pregnant

    The 'Jersey Shore' star announced she is expecting her second child with her husband Christopher Buckner by sharing pictures of themselves, and their 21-month-old son CJ, dressed in Halloween outfits


    She wrote on Instagram: "We’re so excited to announce we’re expecting Baby Buckner #2 May 1, 2021 . Our hearts are filled with so much love and joy! CJ is going to be the best big brother ever!!! #blessed #growingfamily sooo for everyone that was asking YES YES YES ..I’m pregnant #ismellachild #cantscarememywifeispregnant #Itsnotrickimgonnabeabigbrother (sic)"

    Deena's T-shirt was emblazoned with "I smell a child" - a line from the 1993 movie 'Hocus Pocus - while Christopher wrote a top which said: "Can't scare me. My wife is pregnant."

    Young CJ also donned a black Halloween T-shirt, and his read: "It's not a trick, I'm going to be a big brother."

    The couple had a sign made up complete with the message: "This little pumpkin is going to be a big brother. Due to arrive May 1, 2021."

    What's more, the pair decorated pumpkins to display their pregnancy news, and they also had orange flowers and a Halloween wreath on display outside their front door.

    Deena also attached one of her ultrasound images to a mini pumpkin, which was sat on top of a hay bale.

    The 33-year-old fellow 'Jersey Shore' alumni Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, and Jennifer "JWoww" Farley both congratulated her on the baby news.

    Snooki wrote: "YASSSSS MAWMA So excited for you! (sic)"

    JWoww shared: "best news"
