She also promised that though they each lived on opposite coasts, she “would definitely be participating” in Skylar’s birth.
Rosie explained to People in June that Chelsea’s pregnancy helped them “reconnect” and mend their relationship. In 2015 when she was 17, Chelsea left home and claimed that the former View co-host kicked her out.
In September 2017, when she claimed she was pregnant by her now ex-husband Nick Alliegro, Chelsea vowed Rosie would not be allowed in her child’s life. “I do not feel sad about that, to be honest,” she insisted at the time.
