“I want to have kids, but I want to make sure that I can. It could be really hard for me to have babies.” Christian McCaffrey’s wife Olivia Culpo 3 years ago struggled with fertility fears because of her endometriosis. It’s a condition that can cause fertility issues in a lot of ways. Endometrial tissues could grow near your ovaries, damage the quality of your eggs, and scars could develop in your fallopian tubes. So, Culpo was going through a lot mentally, questioning herself, could she ever embrace motherhood? Can she welcome the joy of giving birth to a new life? Well, it seems her fears are now over. Like her husband excels in breaking tackles on the gridiron to score TDs—Culpo has broken the shackles of self-doubt with a huge announcement on pregnancy. Spoiler alert: Christian McCaffrey is soon going to be a dad.

Today the former pageant queen took to her Instagram to share a post where she wrote, “next chapter, motherhood 🤍.” Paired with a couple of black and white maternity photos cradling her baby bump. Actually, not one Culpo shared another post a few minutes later where she and McCaffrey were preparing for their photoshoot. It started with the couple taking photos under the sky, in vast stretches of grassland. It felt like Culpo and McCaffrey were just living in the moment and thinking about how blessed they were.

They were kissing, McCaffrey did his boyfriend duties and took photos of Culpo’s baby bump. Then they were off to the studio where someone else was also waiting for them. Their golden poodle Oliver was also there to congratulate the couple by walking into Culpo’s photoshoot a couple of times. Not at all annoying—it’s his way of expressing happiness. But you know Culpo’s pregnancy announcement was actually due for quite some time. It’s just that she couldn’t hide it any more.

Just this late February, Culpo was caught cradling her baby bump in public as she went out to grab a takeout in LA. The former Miss Universe had a light gray sweatsuit on with a black jacket to hide her baby bump. And even before this last year she sparked lots of speculation about being pregnant. Culpo once shared a photo of McCaffrey’s hand positioned on her stomach. The pair looked at each other with dreamy eyes, and we wondered if she was pregnant? Well, I guess we have our answer now. As for the NFL community, they are jumping with joy seeing the couple embrace their new chapter of parenthood.

The moment Culpo shared her baby bump on Instagram, the fans flooded her comment section with some amazing reactions. One of them wrote, “OMG!!! 😱 So very happy for you because I know you wanted this so much!!!❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍.” Bang on!! Culpo really wanted to be a mother for quite a long time. Because of her endometriosis, she was always scared about whether or not she could have kids. Like she even once told on her family’s reality show, “I feel like I have to have kids ASAP.”

Well, that concern has now turned into jubilation for Culpo, who is soon going to become a mother. But this wasn’t the only reaction she got on her life-changing announcement. Another fan couldn’t help but express how awestruck she was seeing Culpo pregnant, “Awe, this is amazing!!” No doubt this is amazing. Actually, it’s beyond amazing words cannot properly describe the feeling of embracing motherhood. There was another fan who also pointed out how blessed they are, “OMG!!!! THIS!!!! what a beautiful blessing. Congratulations to you both. God is good 🩶🩶.” 

I mean God has indeed showered the couple with all of their blessings. And we also send ours to the Bay Area. While waiting eagerly to hear if it’s a boy or a girl?
