Boston Mayor Michelle Wu Expecting Third Child – NBC Boston

The mayor of Boston is pregnant with her third child.

Mayor Michelle Wu announced Monday that she and her husband are expecting a new child, due in January.

“Conor, Blaise, Cass, and I can’t wait to welcome another little one to our family and to Boston,” Wu said in a statement. “I’m grateful to live in this welcoming community that has become the best home my family could ever imagine. And I’m grateful to know and represent so many hardworking families in our city who inspire me every day.”

Wu told The Boston Globe that her pregnancy will not change her intention to run for re-election.

“I plan to run, and we will make an announcement when the time is right to formally launch a campaign,” she said, according to the newspaper. “But there is still much work to be done, and if anything, this exciting news gives me even more motivation and determination to show what is possible in Boston at a time when our action is needed as an example far beyond our city.”
