Ashley Graham Announces Shes Pregnant With Her Second Child
The model said that she and her husband Justin Ervin are “just beginning to process and celebrate what this next chapter means for us.”

Ashley Graham and her husband Justin Ervin are gearing up for the “next chapter” of their lives together, announcing that they’re expecting their second child.

The model revealed the big news on Instagram on Tuesday by sharing an arresting portrait of herself taken by her cinematographer husband in which she’s standing in the middle of an empty field on a sunny day wearing only a button-down shirt slumped off her shoulders and wrapped around her chest, leaving her pregnant belly fully exposed in silhouette. She wrote in the caption of the shot, “The past year has been full of tiny surprises, big griefs, familiar beginnings and new stories. I’m just beginning to process and celebrate what this next chapter means for us.” Her husband commented on the post with a string of red heart emojis.

The couple, who married in 2010, already have one child together—a 17-month-old son, Isaac, who was born in January 2020. A month after the newborn's arrival, Graham told the Wall Street Journal Magazine that she and Ervin were already laying plans to give Isaac another sibling. “I would get pregnant yesterday if I could,” she confessed to the outlet. “I’ve ‘accidentally’ had unprotected sex while I’m ovulating just to see if I can [get pregnant] while I’m breast-feeding.”

This January, the model also wrote a tribute to her son on Instagram in honor of his first birthday reflecting back on their year together and the unique challenges of raising a child amid a pandemic. “You have changed my life and my heart in ways I couldn’t imagine,” she began. “I can’t believe I’m already writing this because it feels like just yesterday that we met. But at the same time, I also can’t remember what life was like without you…This year has taught us just how strong, adaptable and fierce we can be. One year down and I can’t wait to see where the rest takes us.”
