During the podcast, the actress said she likes to keep all things pregnancy personal but has reached a place where she is \"comfortable and confident that I'm in a good place ... and that, you know, my baby's okay.\"

When asked by her co-host, fellow \"Vampire Diaries\" alum Kayla Ewell, about how she is feeling, King said she is \"doing great\" physically.

\"I was really lucky to have a smooth transition into a more energetic second trimester,\" she shared. \"I'm moving around so much less this pregnancy than I did my first pregnancy. I realize like how stagnant I am because I don't really go anywhere. It takes a lot more effort to convince myself to go on a walk, which really ties into a lot of the emotional weight that I've been carrying around.\"

She admitted the pandemic has affected how she's felt about discussing her pregnancy.

\"It's actually been easier for me to not talk about pregnancy this time around,\" she said. \"It's been kind of odd to share the experience in discussing it with friends and family because I can't really physically share the experience of hugging friends right now comfortably or, you know, knowing when I'm going to see my family next, and I haven't seen them this entire pregnancy so far.\"
