Olivia Culpo, the former beauty queen who won her country’s national pageant and then the Miss Universe title, is approaching the birth of her second child with American football star Christian McCaffrey.
The 34-year-old model recently shared new pregnancy photographs on social media. Standing in the dressing room of her home, she wore a fitted black maxi dress and posed in profile to show her late-stage pregnancy. She also reposted photographs taken when she was three months pregnant, making clear how close the birth is.
Culpo added a playful clue about the baby’s sex to the photograph: “I can’t wait to meet this little baby! My belly is more pointy this pregnancy. Maybe it’ll be a boy.” She and McCaffrey, 30, announced in May that their family would soon grow again, four months after sharing news of their first child, Colette.
I can’t wait to meet this little baby! My belly is more pointy this pregnancy. Maybe it’ll be a boy.
The couple met through Instagram in 2019, began a relationship after meeting in person, became engaged after nearly four years together and married in June 2024. They announced Colette’s birth in a joint Instagram post last summer. Culpo later described the experience as “the scariest and most rewarding experience.”
For Culpo, the pregnancy also follows years of dealing with endometriosis. She has said openly that her greatest fear was being unable to become a mother. She has described suffering severe menstrual pain since her youth and knowing that something was wrong before receiving the correct diagnosis.
The scariest and most rewarding experience.
