'Panic Ensues for Miranda and Steve as Their Son Brady Announces Pregnancy of Girlfriend'
In the latest season of "And Just Like That," Brady, played by Niall Cunningham, stuns his parents, Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Steve (David Eigenberg), with an unexpected revelation - he has impregnated someone. The pregnant woman, named Mia, is a mystery to Brady, as he admits he doesn't even know her last name[1][2].
This news sends shockwaves through the family, particularly Steve, who reacts with emotional turmoil, including verbal abuse and threats towards Brady, reflecting the strains in their own past and current experiences as parents and partners[1][2].
Miranda, on the other hand, is skeptical about Brady's paternity and tries to gather more information by visiting the salon where Mia works[3]. However, her attempts are met with resistance, as Mia is unapologetic and unwilling to engage meaningfully.
The pregnancy storyline echoes the original "Sex and the City" narrative where Miranda had an unplanned pregnancy with Steve, though during that earlier story, they were not together when she found out[1][2]. This time around, the pregnancy is described as "very" advanced, making it impossible to deny[4].
The unplanned pregnancy represents a significant turning point for Brady, potentially altering his life course, and it creates familial tension given Steve and Miranda’s own troubled marriage and co-parenting difficulties[1]. The situation also serves to draw parallels between Brady's challenges and those faced by Steve and Miranda earlier in their lives[2].
Meanwhile, Steve's character, who was absent in the previous seasons, reappears in "And Just Like That" season 3, joining Miranda and Brady for dinner in Miranda's new apartment[5]. The dinner ends abruptly when Brady exits due to Steve's verbal abuse and threats[6].
Mia, on the other hand, initially considered getting an abortion but changed her mind due to the baby being a double Libra[7].
As the season unfolds, we can expect the family dynamics and emotional conflicts to deepen, as Brady navigates his new role as a father-to-be, and Steve and Miranda grapple with their own responses to the situation.
