Little Meer joins the frame, adding an endearing “big brother” moment that fans couldn’t get enough of.
Adding to the charm, the family’s pets are also part of the shoot, creating an intimate and homely atmosphere. Announcing the pregnancy, Priya wrote a heartfelt caption that included every family member—humans and fur babies alike.
“Our home is about to get even cosier with the addition of our newest member! Yes! We are pregnant again. Need all your blessings, love and prayers,” she wrote, signing off with love from Atlee, Priya, Meer, Becky, Yuki, Chocki, Coffee and Goofy.
