Sharna Burgess made a stunning revelation during a Q&A on social media platform Instagram on Monday, March 7, with the Dancing With the Stars pro revealing that her pregnancy with Hollywood actor Brian Austin Green was an accident and that she was on birth control at the time of conception.

Burgess was asked by a fan during that question and answer session if her pregnancy was a surprise. She did not hesitate with her reply, saying, "Ahhhh yes. Yes, it was. I was on birth control."

As per Page Six, the 36-year-old added that she and Green were thinking of "trying" to have a baby in the second half of this year. That plan went out the window, though, with the Australian dancer's surprise pregnancy, with Burgess saying that "the Universe made her own plan, found a window and went for it."

Burgess to give birth to a baby boy this coming July

Burgess added that they are big believers in everything happening for a reason. She wrote, "There was definitely Divine timing with this one, and we are excited about it, trusting in it. We knew it was on the cards for us, so why not now."

Burgess and Green revealed their surprise pregnancy news back in February when they went to Hawaii for their "babymoon." Burgess announced last month that they were expecting a baby boy, which she expects to deliver this coming July 4.

Burgess shared a black and white photo of her burgeoning baby bump with three little hands and one bigger hand resting on it. She then posted a caption, writing, "And suddenly my world would never be the same. Forever greater, forever expanded, and deeper. Forever abundant and unconditional. Baby Boy July 4th (ish) 2022."

Burgess then gave a message to Green, saying, "I love our family, I love that it's growing, and I love you. How did we get so lucky." Green's family is indeed growing as this will be his fifth child. He has a 19-year-old child with ex-girlfriend Vanessa Marcil named Kassius and shares three more children - Noah Shannon, 9, Bodhi Ransom, 8, and Journey River, 5 - with ex-wife Megan Fox.

Burgess does not want to compare herself to Fox

Green got married to Fox back in 2010, but their union ended in 2020 when both of them decided to separate. Green was quick to move on, though, as he was spotted with Burgess just a few months later. The two of them were captured on camera spending the holidays together, sparking rumors that they were seeing each other.

Burgess was asked about this Fox-Green dynamic during Monday's Q&A, with the Aussie star saying that she does not compare herself to her current partner's ex-wife. Burgess wrote, "Normally I wouldn't answer these types of questions but I think many women struggle with comparing themselves to a partners [ex] or to other women in general." Burgess added that the notion of following in the footsteps of your partners' ex is dangerous and that it is important instead to create and make your own path.
