Peppa Pig's Mummy is pregnant, with the baby piglet expected in Season 11 of the preschool program
Peppa Pig's Mummy is pregnant with a third piglet, a mere 21 years after the cartoon family first appeared on TV. Peppa and little bro George will have to adjust.
Peppa Pig is about to become a bigger sister â and little brother George will finally be a big bro. Seems Mummy Pig is pregnant.
The cartoon British pig family, which hit TV screens as âPeppa Pigâ more than 20 years ago, before the books, merchandise, movies and theme parks, shared the news Thursday through the U.K. Independent and on âGood Morning Britain.â
Mummy even shared a cartoon sonogram on the morning show, a sight seen infrequently in preschool programming.
âIâm due in the summer and weâre all so excited. ⌠A little overwhelmed at the thought of having 3 children under 5 running around, but mostly just completely delighted,â Mummy told âGMBâ as she showed off the image.
Mummy and Daddy Pig will introduce the idea of the pending piglet in the Season 10 episode airing March 31. The wee one wonât arrive until Season 11 when the adults will find themselves outnumbered by those three offspring, brand owner Hasbro said in a release.
âA transformative new era is unfolding for Peppa Pig and her family,â Esra Cafer, Hasbroâs senior VP of a lot of franchise-related stuff, said in the release. âAs any family that has welcomed a new addition knows, everything is about to change. A baby brings a special dynamic that will warm hearts as fans celebrate this new exciting time alongside Peppaâs family.â
If âPeppa Pigâ fan families havenât yet explained to the kidlets where babies (and piglets) come from, this could be the perfect opportunity.
âPeppa Pigâ streams, well, just about everywhere. Throw a dart and youâll no doubt hit a five-minute episode.
