Cheyenne “Pickle” Wheat may be 34 weeks pregnant, but that hasn’t stopped the Swamp People star from staying active in the great outdoors.
On Sunday, March 2, the reality star took to Instagram to share a glimpse of her pregnancy journey, posting a photo of her baby bump while raking leaves in the yard.
“Scammers be like: 34 weeks pregnant, still looking for a good man! 🤣🤣” Wheat joked in her caption. “When in reality, my husband made me take this picture so the kids will think I was cool once upon a time. Y’all stay safe out there and just know that we’re happy over here raising dogs and babies.”
Wheat first announced her pregnancy in October 2023, just weeks after marrying Joshua Kippes, an emergency medical technician.
Fans got a special look at their wedding during Swamp People Season 16, which aired on February 20.
The episode not only showcased their big day but also featured legendary gator hunter Troy Landry juggling his role as both officiant and hunter as he balanced filling gator tags with leading the ceremony.
Cheyenne “Pickle” Wheat and her husband, Joshua Kippes, are already proud parents to their daughter, Maemi, while Kippes also has a son from a previous relationship.
Despite being well into her pregnancy, Wheat hasn’t let it slow her down. On February 25, she shared a clip of herself turkey hunting, humorously captioning it,
“If you’re not out there dipping your toes in the creek, are you even a turkey hunter?!”
Just two days later, she posted another video—this time enjoying a sandwich while fishing, proving that pregnancy isn’t keeping her away from the great outdoors.
Fans quickly flooded Wheat’s Instagram comments with love and encouragement. “You are too cute!! Best wishes on your new addition!! Loved your wedding episode,” one user wrote. Another chimed in, “You rock that pregnant belly—so cute!”
Others shared their own pregnancy experiences, with one fan recalling, “I was mowing the grass in Arizona at 39 weeks! YGG, you’re the coolest!” Another added, “You’re so cute. Beautiful.”
Many followers also admired Wheat’s resilience, with one writing, “Gorgeous woman just putting out them babies.”
