Brian Austin Green is a longtime fixture in Hollywood, best known for his role in the hit series Beverly Hills, 90210. Green, who was in a decades-long partnership with Megan Fox, announced his split from Fox in 2020. While Green seemed intent on focusing on his children during the initial days after his split, it didn’t take long before he found love, with Dancing With the Stars pro Sharna Burgess.
Recently, Burgess shocked the world by announcing that she and Green are expecting a child. Burgess has been open about her pregnancy journey, revealing in a recent interview that she was initially very hesitant to tell Green about the pregnancy.

What did Sharna Burgess say about being ‘scared’ to tell Brian Austin Green about her pregnancy?
In a recent interview with US Weekly, Burgess opened up about the moments when she first realized she was pregnant. Burgess noted that she first took the pregnancy test during a cozy day at their home, while Green was watching the Los Angeles Lakers play a losing game on TV. “I was like, ‘What am I gonna do?’ I can’t tell him now. This is terrible news while the Lakers are losing,” Burgess said.
The professional dancer went on to say “So I waited for 40 minutes (after taking the test). And he came in like, ‘Big day. The Lakers came back and they won.’ And I was like, ‘It’s about to get bigger. You’re probably gonna need to sit down for this.'” Burgess said that she was “scared at the time” because the pregnancy was a surprise and because they hadn’t been dating for very long – but revealed that Green put her fears to rest, telling her that the news was “awesome.”
