Alongside the photos, she wrote, “We are beyond excited to announce we are expecting our first child together and can’t wait to start a family of our own.”
Pixie also opened up about her pregnancy in an interview with Fashionrevealing that she and Oliver already know whether they are having a boy or a girl.
But Pixie said she won’t be having a gender reveal party because she and her model husband have decided to keep the news a secret.
She revealed, “We were so excited to find out, it’s nice to keep that information just for us. Feeling the little kicks with Oli was magical and I’m addicted to getting the little outfits – we’re so excited.”
Pixie added that she has taken inspiration from Rihanna – who is currently expecting her second child – when it comes to her career and maternity style.
She explained, “When I see someone like Rihanna continue to perform while she’s pregnant, I find that really inspiring. There are amazing women doing it – it’s definitely possible.
‘Of course I’m not in the newborn phase yet – they call it the fourth trimester – when you don’t get much sleep. I’m very aware that I might feel differently then.’
She added, “I also love that there are no rules around maternity style now. Again, Rihanna always looks incredible.
“I’ve only started showing off very recently, and because it’s summer, I’m living in flowy dresses, but as I grow up, I’m looking forward to having fun wearing different things that show off the belly.”

“I wanted to wait until we could have the big party — our wedding is going to be a big party.”
The singer met Oliver at an event in 2010 and their romance quickly blossomed, before model Oliver popped the question in November 2016.

And despite their hectic schedules — often thousands of miles apart — the couple has learned the importance of trusting each other.
Pixie added, “Either I’m gone or he’s gone, and those times are hard. But we’re used to it because it’s been that way since the beginning.
“We have full confidence and I think if we didn’t it would be a lot harder than it is. I’d like to think we were headed that way [towards marriage]Certainly.’
