Pregnant supermodel Ashley Graham shares candid selfie on Instagram

Expecting her first child, Ashley Graham has been sharing candid updates with her Instagram followers — and her latest post is no exception.

We’re used to seeing celebrities making pregnancy look as effortless — and unrealistic — as possible, but Ashley Graham is keeping things real.

The supermodel, who is expecting her first child with husband Justin Ervin, has been documenting her pregnancy through candid updates on her Instagram account and her latest post is no exception.

The model has shared another candid shot of her changing body on Instagram.

In a post on her Instagram story, Graham shared a selfie of herself lying in bed nude and showcasing her bump while using a hand to cover her chest.

It’s similar to a post the model shared on Instagram last week in which Graham admitted she was “trying to embrace my new body everyday” as she was “getting bigger and bigger”.

“It’s a journey and I’m so thankful to have such a supportive community,” she added alongside the video of her baby bump.

Graham’s Instagram followers have praised the mum-to-be for candidly documenting her “beautiful” pregnancy.

“Welcome to the momma club … we wear our tiger stripes proudly,” one wrote.

“Precious bundle of joy. Enjoy every moment of being pregnant. Such a wonderful feeling,” said another.

A third posted, “Absolutely pregnancy and post-partum body changes are so crazy. Embrace. The. Magic.”

Shortly after announcing her pregnancy in August Graham shared a photo of her changing body on Instagram writing in the caption that it was “same same but a little different”.

Graham married director Irvin nine years ago, with the couple announcing they were expecting their first child together on their wedding anniversary this year.

The couple met at church and got engaged after 12 months of dating, tying the knot two months later.

Graham and Irvin didn’t have sex until they were married, with Graham telling Elle magazine she wanted to wait until they were wed as “abstinence was a firm commitment to his faith”.

She told the magazine the secret to her happy marriage was to “have sex all the time”.

“Even if you don’t feel like it, just have sex,” Graham explained. “I have found that if we haven’t had sex, we get snippy, and then if we are having sex, we’re all over each other.” Which sounds like great advice, to be honest.
