Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr has been the face of CrossFit for nearly a decade, being one of the most dominant athletes that the sport has ever seen. So, many were surprised to see Tia-Clair absent from some major competitions toward the end of the 2025 season. However, her recent post on Instagram makes everything clear, as Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr announced that she is pregnant.
Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr won the 2025 CrossFit Games back in August, where she built a very comfortable lead and beat her rivals with ease. So, she was also expected to see her compete at the 2025 Rogue Invitational, especially considering that she won the competition last year. It was then that the community started speculating about the reasons why Tia-Clair chose not to appear.
We didn’t have to wait long for an explanation, as Tia-Clair Toomey Orr recently shared a video of her firstborn wearing a t-shirt inscribed with the words “big sister” on it. With this, Tia-Clair revealed that she is pregnant with her second child. She also added a caption saying:
“Willow, show me how excited you are to become a big sister!”

As far as other information about Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr’s pregnancy goes, not much has been revealed. So, it is unclear how far along she is or when her due date might be. However, it is also very likely that Tia-Clair Toomey will miss the 2026 CrossFit season, or at least a large portion of it. Therefore, we might see a brand-new champion take the 2026 CrossFit Games title.
Laura Horvath would be the biggest favorite to win the competition in the absence of Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr, especially following her victory at the 2025 Rogue Invitational. However, Horvath did not take part in this year’s CrossFit Games, making it uncertain if she plans to compete or miss out next year as well.
