Olympic gold medalist Kerri Walsh Jennings was pregnant while she competed in the London games last summer, according to a Monday report.

Yahoo.com said Walsh Jennings and her husband are expecting their third child and, during last summer’s Olympics, the athlete was five weeks pregnant.

The volleyball star reportedly said she was moody and her period was late, but partner Misty May-Treanor caught on before Jennings did.

She reportedly said she still didn’t hold back while playing to win the gold. Read more .
