They grow up so fast, don't they? We've seen many YouTubers come and go over the years, but while some have fallen into obscurity, abandoned their channels, or sadly passed away, others have grown to remain staples of our screen time.
Away from the likes of Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson and Felix "PewDiePie" Kjellberg with their gargantuan subscriber counts, others continue to keep us entertained on YouTube with their more niche content.
While not exactly niche, LDShadowLady has amassed a jaw-dropping 7,000,000 subs with her channel. Joining the annals of YouTube way back in 2010, LDShadowLady carved an important legacy while playing Minecraft. LDShadowLady started her channel at the age of just 17, and impressively, has even lent her name to the game's story mode alongside other creators, as well as her long-form "Shadowcraft" series, pulling in the clicks and helping her grow her community.
If you were looking closely at the record-breaking A Minecraft Movie, you might've spotted LDShadowLady alongside Daniel "DanTDM" Robert Middleton, Jessica "Aphmau" Bravura, and Oli "Mumbo Jumbo" Brotherhood.

Sticking in the gaming space, she's also dabbled in The Sims and regularly partners with her husband, SmallishBeans, with the pair now celebrating the birth of their first child.
As shared by Dexerto, LDShadowLady posted on Instagram announcing the birth of her daughter.
It's been noted that LDShadowLady has been mysteriously quiet in recent months, with her Wikitubia page currently listing her as 'semi-active'. This led some to speculate she might be pregnant, but now, the pieces are falling into place.

After tying the knot with her husband in August 2022, the pair seemed to keep the pregnancy under wraps. Shortly after Trisha Paytas blew up the web by revealing the unusual name for her latest child, LDShadowLady is here to steal the spotlight.
The reason the post broke the internet is because many grew up with LDShadowLady and can't believe she's had a child.
Replying to the post, one shocked onlooker gasped: "SHE WAS PREGNANT???"

Another added: "My childhood has never been more complete, you’ll both be such wonderful parents to your beautiful girl 😭."
A third said: "The woman that raised millions is now a mom!! Oh my gosh I could cry."
Someone else joked about Joel being pregnant, and while that wasn't the case, we don't imagine it'll be long until the pair are back doing what they do best – potentially with a surprise appearance from their daughter.
