Lais Ribeiro is going to be a mom again!
On Saturday, Aug. 17, the Brazilian model, 33, shared that she is expecting her second baby, her first with her former Chicago Bulls center husband Joakim Noah. Sharing a collection of photos on her Instagram, Ribeiro posed by a waterfall, wearing only a wet black cloth over her body.
The Victoria’s Secret Angel could also be seen posing on some rocks by the waterfall, placing her hands above and below her bump, as well as cuddling up with Noah in the foliage. “25 weeks 💙 blessed 👶🏽 @stickity13 💙,” Riberio wrote in her caption.

Ribeiro is already mom to 15-year-old son Alexandre, while Noah is dad to kids Emaan and Leia from a previous relationship.
In 2018, Ribeiro shared that she’d gotten a tattoo in honor of her son Alexandre, who was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder five years prior.
“So this just happened guys!” the proud mom wrote on social media at the time, alongside an image of herself getting inked.
Ribeiro went on to explain that while she had wanted to get a second tattoo for a while, she “couldn’t find anything meaningful enough till a meeting that I had [a] couple weeks ago about autism and kids with special needs.”

“Don’t know if you guys know and I was never open about it but my son was diagnosed with autism 5 years ago,” she wrote of her son, before adding that her first tattoo “is his name on the back of my neck.”
“I decided to do the symbol of autism (and kids with special needs),” Ribeiro wrote, adding that the symbol — a ribbon covered with a puzzle piece pattern — is “beautiful and perfect just the way I wanted [it] to be.”
“I’m so happy about it ❤️ it means A LOT to me!” she added, before showing off the actual inking on her side in a separate post.
