'I feel incredibly blessed': Nadia Forde is about to become a mum

Nadia Forde has announced some very exciting news – she’s expecting her first baby.

The model and her rugby player fiancé Dominic Day are set to welcome a baby girl in October, making her four months along.

She shared the news on Instagram, unveiling a teeny-tiny baby bump.

“Dom and I feel incredibly blessed to be expecting a baby girl this October,” the 29-year-old told followers.

“We cannot wait to meet her and I feel so lucky to have @domday5 by my side for this amazing new chapter in our lives.”

Nadia and Welshman Dominic have been together for over three years and are engaged.

Dominic popped the question back in March during a holiday in New York.

They were introduced by mutual friends, rugby star Peter Stringer and his wife Debbie, shortly before Nadia’s mum Berenice died of cancer in 2015.

“I did hear that normally when somebody leaves your life somebody important come into your life,” she told the Sunday Independent.

“Obviously at the time I didn’t realise he was going to be so influential. The first night I met him I didn’t realise he was going to be this great guy.

“He was really shy when we first met. I was having dinner with Peter and Debbie [Stringer] and he came in. They planned it.

“He didn’t really say much but just before the end of dinner, he asked could he take me for dinner again.

“[I can remember thinking] ‘We’re never going to go for dinner together’. We actually did meet for dinner and that was kind of it.

“We spent the weekend together. It was as if I’ve knew him for my whole life.”
