Peta Murgatroyd showed off her growing baby bump as she and Maksim Chmerkovskiy danced together in a sweet social media clip she posted on Thursday.
The 36-year-old Dancing with the Stars pro wore a skimpy beige top that barely contained her ample cleavage.
He was wearing baggy polyester pants and high-top black shoes. Her dirty blonde locks were parted in the middle and rested on her slender shoulders.
Peta was joined in the clip by her husband Maksim, who donned a black T-shirt with orange lettering and a teal cap that covered his eyes.
Dark pants with a white pattern running down the sides of her legs hugged her lower body. She pulled her gray and white socks up to her ankles.

The pair went through a series of moves, bucking their hips and turning their stomachs as they performed the synchronized routine.
Maksim captioned the clip, ‘Oh we’re in it! Finally!!! Come on!!! 1) It’s funny that we waited until @petamurgatroyd is fully pregnant to start dancing here. [pregnant woman emoji.
‘2) If you know @maksimc you know he REALLY did NOT want to be part of this, but if you actually know him you’ll be able to see the exact move that changed his mind [emoji with tongue out] What is Maks’s favorite body part to move? What trendy dance should we do next?
Last week, Peta celebrated her baby bump at 20 weeks, which comes after a difficult IVF journey.
Footage showed her playfully making faces, sticking out her tongue and pretending to bite one of her fingers.
Her husband jumped into the comments section to say, “You’re so hot,” throwing in a set of heart and fire emoji for good measure.
He and Peta welcomed son Shai in 2017 and Peta has been open about her heartbreaking fertility struggles while trying to have another child.
Last month she announced: ‘After 2 years of constant struggle and anguish, 3 miscarriages and a failed embryo transfer… we have a healthy bun in the oven.’

Style: He was wearing baggy polyester pants and high-top black shoes. Her dirty blonde locks were parted in the middle and rested on her slender shoulders.
She celebrated the new development with a stunning photo shoot of her showing off her burgeoning baby bump in lingerie.
She spoke in an interview with People magazine in mid-January that she was nearly 18 weeks pregnant, saying, “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.”
Routine: The pair went through a series of moves, moving their hips and turning their stomachs as they performed the synchronized routine.
‘Candids’: Murgatroyd showed off her burgeoning baby bump in a series of Instagram photos last week
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.
