Olivia Culpo is pregnant: Model and Christian McCaffrey are expecting their first child

Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey have announced they are expecting their first child together.

Culpo, Miss Universe 2012, made the announcement on social media on Monday morning, posing for pictures where she caressed her bump. 

She captioned the post: ‘Next chapter, motherhood’. Culpo, 32, also shared a video of her and McCaffrey romantically holding hands and kissing in the outdoors.

The couple, who have been dating since 2019 and tied the knot last summer in a lavish ceremony in Rhode Island, are yet to announce the gender of the baby.

McCaffrey, 28, is the star running back for the San Francisco 49ers, while Culpo is an actress, model and former pageant star.

She has been open about her desire to start a family with McCaffrey before but has also talked about her battle with endometriosis.

In a 2022 episode of reality show ‘Culpo Sisters’, she said: ‘I want to have kids, but I want to make sure that I can. It could be really hard for me to have babies.

‘Endometriosis can affect your fertility in a lot of different ways. 

‘You can have endometrial tissue growing near or on your ovaries, it can affect the quality of your eggs, scar your fallopian tubes.

‘There is so much that I don’t know about what’s going to happen in the future with that condition, and I worry all the time about my timeline. I feel like I have to have kids ASAP.’

The pregnancy is great news for McCaffrey after a torrid NFL season that saw him suffer a number of injury setbacks.

McCaffrey, who signed a two-year, $38million contract extension in June 2024, played in just four games.

He spent the first eight weeks of the season on injured reserve with Achilles injuries in both legs. He then suffered a PCL injury against the Buffalo Bills in Week 13.

Last month, his father Ed McCaffrey gave an update on his recovery from a posterior cruciate ligament injury he suffered on December 1.

‘He’s doing great,’ McCaffrey told Front Office Sports‘ Alex Tran.

‘He should be healthy by next week and he’ll have a full offseason to train. I still have PTSD from last year’s Super Bowl so I haven’t recovered yet, but he has recovered and he’s healthy.

‘It was a tough season, but he’s in great shape. He’s going to have a full offseason and I think their team is really going to come back strong next season.’
