Ashley Graham announced her first pregnancy to husband Justin Ervin in August and since then, the supermodel has been sharing her journey with her almost 10m fans via Instagram, including workouts, public call-outs for good maternity leggings and close up photos of her stretch marks.
Though the 31-year-old has been embracing her baby bump and all that comes with it, even she admits that it’s a “journey” learning to love her ever-changing body.
Taking to Instagram overnight, Ashley shared a close-up video of her naked body, zooming in on her baby bump and stretch marks, before bringing her phone up to her face and smiling to the camera.
“Getting bigger and bigger and trying to embrace my new body everyday,” she wrote on the caption. “It’s a journey and I’m so thankful to have such a supportive community.”
Naturally, her comments section was quickly filled with women sharing their support. “Welcome to the momma club… we wear our tiger stripes proudly ❤️” one person wrote. “Goddess! You are such an inspiration 💕 we love you,” another commented.
As well as continuing her strict exercise regime, something she dubs a ‘lifestyle’, Ashley has been modelling throughout her pregnancy. She walked the Tommy x Zendaya runway at New York Fashion Week last month and later wrote that she “could have never imagined the feeling of walking a runway pregnant.”
