"It really has been so easy, you know, and fun," she said of her pregnancy, adding that it's been great to reunite with co-star Parker Sawyers, who plays Barack Obama. "He's been making me laugh, so it's been great."
Sumpter also enjoyed reconnecting with John Legend, who served as executive producer on the film, which chronicles Barack and Michelle Obama's first date.
"Preggers and promoting w Legend. Happy and proud," she wrote on Instagram.
Hours later, she posted another photo of her stylish maternity fashion.
"Grateful. Happy. Complete. Love my team," she captioned a fierce shot of herself proudly putting her baby bump on display.
While Sumpter is grateful for her little girl, she's also thankful for her role as Michelle Obama in Southside With You.
"I think about it every day," she said of the opportunity for her daughter to one day see her portraying strong women like Michelle on the big screen.
"I just feel like the world has shifted so much," Sumpter added. "I feel like we're in the forefront right now and we’re so in control of our destiny. This is like a gift to my daughter. You can really do anything you want to do and be great at it."
