Olivia Culpo Reveals She Couldn’t Work Out During the First Few Months of Her Pregnancy
Olivia Culpo’s journey into motherhood has started off relatively quiet.
“I couldn’t work out for the first 4 months of my pregnancy (not even walking!!!!!),” Culpo, 32, shared in a Wednesday, March 12, Instagram Story featuring a gym mirror selfie with fitness trainer Marissa West. “So we’re really making it count now … love you @westkeptsecret @mrswestisinthebuilding.”
In her workout attire, Culpo proudly displayed her growing baby bump in a form-fitting black bodysuit, paired with white socks and sneakers. Her trainer complemented her look in black leggings and a gray top. Also joining the workout session was Culpo’s adorable dog, Oliver.
The Instagram Story from Wednesday is one of the first glimpses of Culpo’s baby bump since she announced her pregnancy with her husband, Christian McCaffrey. “Next chapter, motherhood 🤍,” she captioned a series of black-and-white maternity photos via Instagram on Monday, March 10.
In a subsequent post, Culpo shared a heartwarming video of herself in a white maxi dress strolling through a field with McCaffrey, 28. The clip included behind-the-scenes moments from her maternity shoot, showcasing the couple sharing a kiss while holding sonogram images. She ended the video with two white heart emojis.
Culpo and McCaffrey started dating in 2019 and made their relationship official less than a year later by appearing together on the 2020 NFL Honors red carpet. The San Francisco 49ers running back proposed to Culpo in April 2023 after three years of dating, and they exchanged vows in June 2024.
Previously, during a December 2022 episode of her short-lived TLC reality series, The Culpo Sisters, Culpo disclosed that she made the decision to freeze her eggs. “I’ve been making decisions out of fear for the future,” she shared. “There’s a lot of pressure that I’ve been placing on my relationship because of fertility.”
At that time, Culpo expressed how her endometriosis struggles and friends’ weddings triggered her anxiety about becoming a wife and mother. “I’m imposing this timeline on myself,” she noted on the show. “I don’t want to feel rushed. I don’t want to control my destiny because of what I think I should do.”
In October 2023, Culpo humorously stated via TikTok that she was “ready to rip out my IUD and start trying immediately” following her wedding to McCaffrey.
After Olivia shared her pregnancy announcement, her sister Sophia Culpo playfully remarked about how Olivia attempted to conceal her baby bump by holding her dog in photos. “Now you all know why her nickname is Oblivia … she ain’t stealth 😂😂,” Sophia, 28, wrote beside an Instagram Story photo of Culpo smiling with McCaffrey while holding her dog in front of her stomach.
