Power 96.1 morning host Riley Couture announced today on the radio and on Instagram that she is three months pregnant.
Couture, who joined the station last year with co-host Scotty K, is due in October.
She made the announcement the day after Mother's Day. She had recently flew to Paris to tell her mom and sister. "It's not real to me until I talk about it on air," she said, admitting nerves.
