Peta Murgatroyd and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, pregnant, celebrate their 10th Valentine’s Day together

Peta Murgatroyd and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, who met working on the Broadway production of Burn the Floor in 2009, celebrated their 10th Valentine’s Day together.

As they reminisced about their long-standing relationship, the happy couple shared a silly video of themselves goofing around the house as she showed off her growing baby bump in a gray long-sleeve cropped and low-rise green sweatpants.

‘Spending 10 years together,’ the future star, 36, and the renowned ballroom champion, 43, captioned their joint post. ‘Almost 6 years of marriage… Almost 2 children.’

They continued: ‘Pretty much a lifetime in the Hollywood years! always to go [infinity emoji]. HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! ❤️’

In the images, Murgatroyd and Chmerkovskiy looked happy as they twirled around their living room in front of a wall lined with black-and-white family photos.

Their post comes a month after the Dancing With The Stars couple announced they are expecting their second child after years of fertility issues.

“After 2 years of constant struggle and heartbreak, 3 miscarriages and a failed embryo transfer…we have a healthy bun in the oven,” Murgatroyd revealed to her Instagram followers.

In January, she served People magazine that she was nearly 18 weeks pregnant and said, “All natural, it just happened.”

Peta was about to attempt a second round of IVF when she received the news that she had conceived.

“I didn’t even know I was pregnant for so long until I really felt sick. I danced with him Dancing with the stars,’ she said.

“I started to feel weird, I started to feel a little sick and a little bloated and I didn’t want to get tested for weeks,” Peta confessed candidly.

She was near the “six or seven week” point of her pregnancy when she finally got tested and “I think it was the fastest positive result I’ve ever seen in my life.”

The Auckland-born hoofer said: ‘It just came up super fast and it surprised me. It has been completely different from my previous pregnancy. It wasn’t like she was jumping for joy and screaming from the rooftops, “Oh my gosh, I’m pregnant. Yay!”

Peta, who has suffered three miscarriages, said: “It was more like, ‘Okay, let’s see what happens because I’ve been through this four other times and it hasn’t worked.” So I was very skeptical. I didn’t even tell Maks for a while.

At the moment he knows the sex of the baby, as he ‘can’t wait’ and needs to ‘know these things’, but he has not decided whether to make the information public.

Taking the news to Instagram, he wrote: “It gives me immense joy to finally announce that @maksimc and I are expecting our Chmerkovskiy #2.”

She shared: “After 2 years of constant struggle and heartbreak, 3 miscarriages and one failed embryo transfer… we have a healthy bun in the oven :)) It was a shock to all of us and we found out just before I enter to”. for my second round of IVF.’

She said: ‘I want to thank ALL of YOU who have been on this fertility journey with me from the very beginning. I feel like I am sharing this news with my extended family. Thank you for sharing your stories and advice to help me get through my IVF cycle and thank you for the plethora of encouraging comments and direct messages… I read them all.’

Peta concluded: “This news has brought extraordinary joy to our family and we have so much to be thankful for…as of June 2023.”

in a wreck People interview last year, she revealed how “petrified, embarrassed and embarrassed” she felt when she miscarried for the first time.

The loss occurred in the fall of 2020 in a Whole Foods bathroom, leaving her “sobbing” and “whining” for hours while sitting on the toilet.

When she miscarried again nine months later, she was about to fly to New York to tell Maksim that she was pregnant, and instead had to tell him that she had lost the baby.

In October 2021, when her husband was in his native Ukraine to work on his version of Dancing with the Stars, Peta suffered a third miscarriage.

At the time, she was so sick with COVID-19 that she “couldn’t open a dishwasher” or even “open the fridge to feed Shai, to get her some toast.”

After passing out in her son’s room, Peta, who at the time didn’t even know she was pregnant, was rushed to the hospital and told she had lost a baby.

Peta eventually discovered that she had a hormonal disorder called polycystic ovarian syndrome that was affecting her fertility.

She announced last June that she was trying IVF, stating: “For the first time in almost two years, I feel emotional. I am in a much happier place. I have answers.

“I have no more words than hope and positivity,” said her husband. ‘I cross my fingers that this works.’
