While it is currently unclear how far along Proctor is, it’s likely that she’s at least three months pregnant, as Newton recently revealed that he hadgiven up sexfor the month of March.
During a March 21 appearance toThe Late Late Show with James Corden, Newton said that he had decided to give up sex for four weeks as a way to challenge himself in the off-season.
“Every month, it’s been the off-season, I try to challenge myself in many different ways,” Newton shared, explaining that in January, he gave up on gambling, and in February, he decided to adopt a vegan diet.

“And then March, I’m giving up — I hope this is an adult crowd, it looks like it is — no climax,” he said, finding the most family-friendly way to deliver the news.
As for why he chose to give up sex for the month, the athlete shared that he wants to spend his off-season doing “certain things that challenge me,” so he’ll be in a better place when football starts up again.
“It makes my mind stronger,” he remarked. “I feel like, if I go back and I say, I did those things, I’m mentally stronger.”
In addition to preparing for fatherhood again, Newton has been focused on his health.
This past January, the quarterback, who has played with the Panthers since 2011, had an arthroscopic procedure on his right shoulder.
In a press release, the Pantherssaidthe surgery was a success and Newton was set to begin his rehabilitation process immediately. Due to his injury, Newton missed the final two games of the 2018 season.
