The couple announced the news of their pregnancy back in summer, one year after tying the knot in Portugal.

In a black and white video shared on Instagram, Joanna could be seen showing off her growing baby bump. The model and businesswoman rested her hand on her beau's knee as he held her from behind.

They simply captioned the post: "Mom & Dad."

Earlier this year, Conor shared his excitement over becoming a first time dad.

The Ireland and Munster star told RSVP Live: "Joanna is getting a bit bigger and it is becoming a little bit more real and you are feeling the kicks and all that.

"We were buggy shopping yesterday, so it is getting real. It will be the first grandchild on our side of the family and my sister is due the day after us as well, so my mam is up the walls for a good reason."

Conor and Joanna thankfully experienced a straightforward pregnancy.

He added: "Yeah, she has been really lucky so far. Not much sickness, just a bit tired. That is it. That is a good complaint.

"Touch wood, everything is going so smoothly so far and hopefully it continues that way."

Conor and Joanna are currently based in Limerick, but might move to Dublin as a family of three in the future.

He told us: "I’ve been with Munster all of my career. I’ve at least another year left.

"Where we’ll go after is the million dollar question. We are in Limerick at the moment, but she is from Derry.

"We drove up there the other day and I am still tired from it. So we will go for somewhere in the middle, maybe. Dublin could be the ideal landing spot when rugby finishes up.

"I was looking at house prices and they are a bit saucy. Moving house and having a baby at the same time could be too stressful. We’ll chill out in Limerick for a while."
