In June, Dani revealed that she and husband Xavi are expecting their baby no. 2.

"Growing a love too beautiful for words," she said. "Hello Baby [number] 2! We can't wait to meet you."

Her post included photos of her in a white tube gown showing off her baby bump. She also posed alongside Xavi, who wore a matching white polo.

Dani and Xavi married in 2019 and welcomed their now-four-year-old daughter Millie in September of that year.

After her first pregnancy, the celebrity mom shared about her postpartum journey. According to her, she worked out three times a week and ate healthily to get back into shape.

"It hasn't been easy but it's totally worth it," she said at the time.

Dani currently hosts The Bare It All Podcast, discussing topics such as dating, relationships, motherhood, and more.
