Nicola Adams' girlfriend Ella Baig debuted her bourgeoning baby bump in an Instagram video shared on Thursday, which she had recorded while waiting in a lift.
The blogger, 23, lifted up her yellow knitted sweater as she zoomed in on her stomach, which was visible through a pair of black leggings.
In her caption, she wrote: 'My growing baby,' before the professional boxer, 39, commented: 'Wow,' followed by three heart-eyed emojis.
Exciting: Nicola Adams' girlfriend Ella Baig debuted her bourgeoning baby bump in an Instagram video shared on Thursday, which she had recorded while waiting in a lift
The couple made the reveal in a joint Instagram post on Thursday with pictures of the pair kissing and an ultrasound scan.
Boxer Nicola revealed the couple had been trying to get pregnant for three years using IVF.
As she had frozen her eggs during her career as an elite sportswoman, she was able to provide one to impregnate Ella with the help of a sperm donor.
Ella, who tragically suffered two miscarriages earlier on in their fertility journey, is now in her second trimester.

Nicola - who admitted she used to worry that she wouldn't be able to conceive a child as a lesbian - told Vogue of their fertility journey: 'We decided that Ella would carry the baby, that we’d use my egg, and find a sperm donor that resembled Ella.
'The main hurdle was not knowing as much about IVF as we do now – about the tests that needed to be done and the things to look out for which can affect the pregnancy.'
She revealed that they had two failed attempts at conceiving, as Ella tragically miscarried the baby.

Nicola explained: 'I was really upset. Of course, we knew that there was a chance of it being unsuccessful, but it’s hard to see those two lines on a pregnancy test and feel elated before having that ripped from you just a few weeks later.
'I was also more upset for Ella as she was the one going through the process physically. You don’t really know what to say or do – you just have to be supportive.'
Nicola, who would like to have more children with Ella in the future, said that she felt compelled to speak out due to the 'stigma attached to the IVF process and, for same-sex couples, there’s an additional layer of complexity.'
