Earlier this year, Marie showed off her baby bump in a sweet Instagram photo after the couple revealed they are expecting their first child together.
She posed for a social media portrait, flaunting her growing belly in a chic crimson blouse adorned with floral designs.
‘Goodbye twenties, welcome big belly,’ she wrote in the caption. ‘Thank you for all your birthday wishes.’
The French native, who appeared to spend the first few days of the New Year at Auron Ski Resort near the town of Saint-Étienne-de-Tinée, smiled happily at the camera.
She wore her chestnut, sleek tresses down and sported a fresh, dewy make-up look.
