On the series "Frasier", why did the actor for Daphne put on so much weight during one season?

Was the actor pregnant? Did she really have a sudden weight gain? Did she do it just for the show? I've been watching reruns and I'm perplexed. It doesn't really seem to fit in, but at once she was a respected character then she began overeating and putting on weight at which point the other characters made jokes about her. Does anyone know what the actual reason for all that is?

I saw an interview that she was on after giving birth, and she discussed that her sudden weight gain was the way the show was handling her pregnancy. The time she was at fat spa was actually maternity leave. I miss the show being on. I do catch the reruns tho.

Eat better. Eat foods found in nature. No foods made in a factory. None.
Get active. Everyday do something. Walk. Run. Dance. Whatever. Get a dog, take it for a walk. Play with your kids if you have any. Get moving.
