Why does an increase in the main steam pressure of a turbine lead to an increase in humidity in the lower pressure stages?

As the pressure increases while the temperature does not increase correspondingly, the superheat of the steam decreases; as a result, the humidity of the steam after it has done work increases by the time it reaches the last stage of the blades.
