“Pregnant in a bikini!” Nicole Williams proudly shows off her baby bump as she’s expecting her first child with Larry English… following a fertility battle
Nicole Williams looked radiant as she proudly displayed her growing baby bump in a blue Chanel swimsuit with a matching tote bag.
Posing by the pool with her stomach bare, the 34-year-old model also showed off her dazzling 5.14-carat oval diamond engagement ring from her husband Larry English, 36. In her caption, she said she was pregnant in a bikini.
These new pictures were posted to Instagram after a grueling IVF journey for the 2023 Sports Illustrated swimsuit rookie and her former NFL player.

Nicole has been very open about her fertility struggles in the past.
“Well, I didn’t mean to post this,” she shared on Instagram, “but I’ve decided it’s an important step in this whole fertility journey and while it’s not glamorous, it’s real life.”
13 eggs were removed from the former WAGS star, eight of which ultimately became embryos.
‘That was my egg retrieval day!’ She explained in the open mail. “I was an emotional mess because not only was I hormonal, but I just broke my foot and I’m scared to death of needles.”

The parents-to-be said yes in 2017 after five years together.
Their Laguna Beach wedding at the luxurious Montage Hotel came a year after the couple got engaged in Thailand.
‘My heart is so full!’ gushed Nicole on Instagram after English popped the question. “I get to marry my best friend! pinch me ekkkkk!’
The couple met in 2011 at a mutual friend’s birthday party in Los Angeles, where former linebacker Nicole’s impressive physique was noticed.
“Larry’s athletic build was the first thing that caught my eye,” she told Upscale Living in 2018. “The second thing that caught my eye was his incredible smile.”

This will be the couple’s first child, but they are also parents to their two beloved Frenchies, Jasmine and Ace.
“They are our children,” she shared with Upscale Living long before her IVF journey began. “They’re probably the reason I haven’t had any human babies yet, because I can’t imagine loving anything more than them, so it’s holding me back!”
Starting a family will be a major change in the busy life of the couple. In addition to her thriving modeling career, Nicole has her own clothing line called Nia Lynn and her former San Diego Charger has ventured into the real estate sector by starting his own real estate company.
The former reality stars revealed their child’s gender on Instagram earlier this month in the cutest way, by posting a video of them posing by their pool. The video starts out in black and white before transitioning to color, revealing that their swimsuits are pink and that they are having a girl.
