As 2021 draws to a close, Candace Parker has a pair of personal milestones to celebrate.

The WNBA star announced on Instagram on Tuesday that she and Anya Petrakova had reached their second wedding anniversary. It appears to be the first time Parker has publicly acknowledged their marriage.

In a series of photos accompanying the post, Parker also revealed that Petrakova is pregnant with the couples first child.

To know me or you is to know our love, the Chicago Sky captain wrote. This journey hasnt been easy. I am proud of us and what we have built and who we have grown to become both individually and together ... I appreciate you, I value you and what we have.

Weve always dreamed of growing our family, she added. Its surreal that we now have a baby on the way!

Parker is already mom to 12-year-old daughter Lailaa, whom she shares with former NBA player Shelden Williams. She and Williams split in 2016 after eight years of marriage.

In her Instagram post , Parker thanked Petrakova for loving Lailaa as your own, and noted that her daughter is pumped to be a big sister!
