Ayesha Curry‘s latest pregnancy is “entirely different” from her other ones.

The actor already has Riley, Ryan and Canon with her NBA star husband Steph and is currently expecting her fourth with him but is now “more appreciative” of where she is at this time round.

“Interestingly enough, I love being a little bit older and having this experience. I feel like there’s so much more gratitude that I’m experiencing and just every little thing is so special.
