Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey are expecting their second child - and Olivia picked the most personal day possible to share the news.

The former Miss Universe announced the pregnancy on her 34th birthday, May 8, sharing a family photoshoot on Instagram that showed off her growing bump. The carousel featured the couple in nature alongside their nine-month-old daughter Colette and their dog Oliver Sprinkles - all dressed in white on a white blanket, with a basket of apples and ultrasound images placed nearby.

Olivia captioned the post simply: "Best birthday gift. Baby #2 coming soon." She also noted on her Instagram Stories that she had been "hiding a special birthday present." In a playful personal touch, she wore the same maternity dress from her 33rd birthday post last year, placing both bumps side by side.

Christian shared the post to his own Instagram Stories with the message: "Happy birthday to the best wife and mom on the planet. I love you."

The timing of the announcement - on her birthday, with her daughter in her arms and her husband beside her - reflects the kind of family life this couple has always said they wanted to build. Olivia has spoken openly about faith being the foundation of their relationship, saying the couple turns to God especially in the hard moments - and that being faith-based is something she believes is important in any relationship. Christian has echoed that throughout his NFL career, regularly seen praying before games, pointing to God after touchdowns, and crediting his faith as his primary source of strength on and off the field.

Olivia had previously been candid about her endometriosis diagnosis and the uncertainty it brought around starting a family - making each pregnancy a moment of genuine gratitude for the couple.

No due date or gender has been revealed yet. Baby No. 2 will arrive to a home already full - and by every sign this family gives, full of faith too.
