Meanwhile, Danielle shares daughter Romy, five, with husband Nate Greenwald and Ella, 20, from a previous relationship, with the family, who live in LA.
Danielle’s relationship with Greenwald, an Ivy League-trained attorney at CAA, was confirmed soon after she moved to the United States.
The model and actress – who are parents to daughter Ella from a previous relationship – announced that she is expecting her first child with Greenwald in February 2017.
A source told The Sun at the time: “She’s thrilled and so excited to be pregnant. She kept it a secret until she was over 12 weeks old but is now telling family and friends.

“It’s nice because Gary never wanted to have kids with her. That was one of the reasons for the breakup. So she thought she might have missed her chance to have more children.”
Speaking to the Express in 2019, Gary admitted he frequently meets up with Greenwald during his travels to visit Danielle in Southern California.
“He doesn’t have a jealousy bone in his body,” he said. ‘We get along very well. We’re going to eat when I’m in LA. It might be unusual and people might say, “That’s weird,” but honestly I don’t care. What is normal?
“Is it better to get divorced and end up fighting, yelling and yelling? Or is it better to keep going if you can?’
So happy: Danielle’s relationship with Greenwald, an Ivy League-trained attorney at CAA, was confirmed soon after she moved to the United States
