'Little Women: LA' Is Ready For 2 New Additions

by Laura Rosenfeld

Ready or not, here they come! Little Women: LA is returning to Lifetime for Season 4 on Wednesday, Jan. 27 at 9 p.m. ET. If it seems like only yesterday when we put Season 3 of Little Women: LA in the can, then you'd basically be right. Season 3 of Little Women: LA just ended in November 2015. Though you may feel hesitant to start another season of this show so soon after the last one ended, once I tell you that there's not one but two babies on the way for one of these lucky ladies, you'll be dying to tune in just to see who is pregnant on Little Women: LA . Update: On Feb. 24, Elena Gant confirmed to Us Weekly that she is pregnant and expecting twins.

Unfortunately, this is a question that's easier asked than answered. It's likely for just about any of the Little Women: LA cast members to be pregnant. Terra Jole and Jasmine Arteaga Sorge may want to grow their families beyond their one tot. Christy McGinity Gibel's struggle to conceive her first child with husband Todd Gibel has been well documented on the show. Elena Gant has talked about getting pregnant with her husband Preston Gant on the show before. Briana Renee is eager to expand her family with not-so-new husband Matt. Though Tonya Banks has seemed to have a "been there, done that" attitude about childbirth on the show, she's going to try to rekindle her 20-year relationship with her daughter's father Kerwin this season, so who knows if a couple of babies could be on the way for them?

On top of all of that, there has been no official pregnancy announcement from any of the Little Women: LA cast members returning for Season 4, which I can't say it's too surprising since Lifetime wants you to tune in to find out the answer to this burning question. The network did the same thing at the start of Season 2 when we found out Terra was the lucky lady expecting.

With all of that being said, I'm just going to take a wild guess about who's pregnant on Little Women: LA this season because that's all I can do at this point. Though all of the cast members are likely candidates, I think Elena is the one with twins on the way. That's because she has been the least active on social media since Season 3 ended, although admittedly not by a lot. Still along those lines, Elena hasn't really posted any photos of herself on Instagram recently, which is very unlike her and could mean that she's trying to conceal a baby bump.

What's perhaps most telling is the message Elena had for her fans in her latest makeup tutorial video posted on her YouTube channel EG Beauty on Jan. 1:

"It feels like it's been so long since I uploaded my last video, but now I'm back and hopefully I will get back on track with making new tutorials for you and uploading as often as I could. I really apologize for a little delay because I had a lot of personal stuff that I had to deal with, and that was my priority. But hopefully, I will be getting better with my frequent videos, and I hope you will be enjoying them."

Now that "personal stuff" could mean anything, sure. But having twins is something personal that's time consuming, so it's definitely a possibility.

Elena is also missing from these promotional photos of the Little Women: LA cast members going apple picking. This is a glorious activity that no one would ever want to miss out on, so her absence is curious in the very least.

There's also the fact that a log line for the Feb. 10 episode of Little Women: LA says that "Elena decides to tell Preston she wants to try for a baby," which is not how she felt earlier in the series. We'll have to wait and see if Elena's wish has actually come true.
