Is Ivy on 'The Bold and the Beautiful' Pregnant in Real Life?
The Bold and the Beautiful's Ivy (Ashleigh Brewer) has been meddling in her niece Electra's (Laneya Grace) love life like crazy on the CBS soap.
However, when she's doing it, Ivy is either sitting down, filmed from the neck up, or has something blocking her stomach.
The way Ivy has been filmed lately has brought up the question of whether Brewer is pregnant in real life. After all, hiding a stomach, lots of sitting-down scenes, and filming only the face are how soaps hide an actress' real-life pregnancy.
That is the case with Brewer. As Parade reported, Brewer and her husband Mark Bauch, who tied the knot in December 2025, are expecting their first child. Brewer and Bauch will welcome a daughter in May.
Given that Brewer is due in a few weeks, The Bold and the Beautifulfans can expect Ivy to either leave town soon or suddenly be MIA while Brewer is on maternity leave.
The preview video for The Bold and the Beautiful reveals that Electra learns that Ivy stole the letter Electra intended for Will (Crew Morrow) that could have repaired their relationship. Fans know that Ivy has been purposely keeping Electra and Will apart because she wants her niece with RJ (Brayan Nicoletti), not Will.

Since Ivy's going to face the music for her lies and deception regarding Will and Electra, this would make the perfect opportunity for Ivy to leave town so Brewer can go on break.
It's unclear how long Brewer will be gone, but chances are, she and Ivy won't return until after the CBS soap has its annual summer break.
Brewer has been pretty quiet about her pregnancy, aside from the official announcement. The actress did appear on the Something to Talk About podcast in her native Australia, shortly after sharing her baby news, where Brewer admitted it's not like she's hiding anything, she's just enjoying her pregnancy journey privately.
Also, the soap star has been booked and busy on the show, with Ivy remaining front and center as the nosy aunt.
The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS.
