“Adam and I are thrilled to be welcoming our first child in early May 2024,” Ms Hurn told The Advertiser.

“It’ll be a wonderful time for our family.

“We’re very lucky to have lots of support in the Barossa from family and friends.

“I know from personal experience what a great place the Barossa is to grow up in, so we’re really looking forward to the years ahead.”

Ms Hurn and Mr Howard married in December 2021 at Ms Hurn’s family property, but kept details of their nuptials private until June 2022.

While they did not share any wedding photographs on their social media, photos revealed Ms Hurn wearing a beautiful bridal gown that was believed to be the work of Adelaide’s internationally-renowned couture house Paolo Sebastian.
