Eve Takes Hiatus From ABC Series ‘Queens’ Due To Pregnancy

The show also stars Naturi Naughton, Nadine Velazquez and Brandy.

Rapper and actress Eve currently stars in the hit ABC series Queens, which follows four R&B/hip hop divas from the 1990s on a reunion tour. However, due to her pregnancy, the 42-year-old will reportedly take a break from the show.

Eve is expecting her first child with husband Maximillion Cooper and all of her focus will be on the baby. According to Deadline, the rapper, who plays Brianna in Queens, will be on maternity leave. She’ll still appear in the majority of the first season, which is airing now, and her character will be set up so she can easily return if there is a second season.

Queens also stars Naturi Naughton, Nadine Velazquez and Brandy.
