One of the ‘Gilmore Girls’ Might Be Pregnant in the Revival

Gilmore Girls fans have been rejoicing over Netflix’s upcoming reboot of the show, looking for any hints or spoilers they can find before the episodes’ release. Now, rumors are swirling that Rory or Lorelai might be pregnant when we see the gals again!

The official Gilmore Girls Instagram account posted a pic showcasing a plate of Pop-Tarts. Totally normal, right? Sure, until you notice there’s a seemingly random apple amidst the breakfast pastries. Many fans have jumped to the conclusion that one of the leading ladies is pregnant, since apples were a food Lorelai craved when she was pregnant with Rory (but would NEVER eat otherwise).

So if this means what we think it means, one of our faves might be pregnant in the upcoming revival.

But before we get ahead of ourselves, we should consider that the pic itself specifically references that time in season one when Lorelai gave Rory and company “Pop-Tart appetizers to tide you over until the pizza comes.” That platter had an apple in the middle of it, too, and the quote from the show matches the caption of the IG post.

We won’t know what any of this means until November 25, when Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life drops. We’ll just have to binge-watch the OG Gilmore Girls until then and dwell on every piece of information we can get our hands on.
