JACKIE LONG AND SLOAN BYRD POSE FOR MATERNITY SHOOT AHEAD OF BABY GIRL’S ARRIVAL


Actor Jackie Long and his partner, Sloan Byrd, are celebrating the final stretch of pregnancy with a new maternity shoot.

The ATL star appeared alongside Byrd in a joint Instagram post this week featuring photos from the session.

In the series of photos, the pair are dressed in coordinated neutral tones while posing against a soft studio backdrop. In one image, Long rests his head against Byrd while she looks toward the camera, one hand placed near her face and the other supporting her growing belly.

Byrd kept the caption simple, writing, “a little bit of me, a little bit of you.”

Fans quickly reacted in the comment section with supportive messages for the couple.

“The most beautiful mom,” one follower wrote.

Others complimented the photos themselves, calling them “Beautiful.”

The maternity photos arrive several months after Long announced that he and Byrd are expecting a baby girl.

Back in October 2025, the actor first revealed the pregnancy on Instagram after painting Byrd’s belly like a basketball for Halloween. He captioned, “dribbling through halloween tonight.”

Later in January, he confirmed that the couple is expecting a baby girl, writing, “On Jesus daddy I can’t wait for this little girl to be in my arms.”

He also revealed details about the pregnancy, noting that Byrd was about 29 weeks pregnant when the photo was taken.

“March or April she 29 weeks in this picture 3 lbs. 3 oz.,” he wrote, suggesting the baby could arrive in early spring.

Byrd also responded to the announcement in the comments with a message directed at Long.

“She’s told me to tell you she loves you…& I love you too,” she wrote.

Long is known for his work in films such as ATL, The Comebacks, and Bodied. He has also appeared in television series including Real Husbands of Hollywood and Games People Play and voiced characters in Grand Theft Auto V.
