A recent image featuring Christian McCaffrey of the San Francisco 49ers and his spouse, Olivia Culpo, has sparked speculation among fans about a possible pregnancy, particularly as the running back is currently sidelined due to an injury.
McCaffrey was a standout performer in the 2023/24 NFL season, amassing 21 touchdowns and totaling 1459 rushing yards on 272 carries, alongside 564 yards received. However, so far this season, he is dealing with a bilateral Achilles injury, which has kept him off the field.
McCaffrey has yet to take the field this season, losing his role as a key target for quarterback Brock Purdy. Fans have been eager for updates on the 28-year-old, and a recent photo shared by Culpo might provide a clue.
The couple, who began dating in 2019 and exchanged engagement vows in 2023, officially married on June 29, 2024, and now speculation mounts about them starting a family.
Culpo’s Instagram post captioned “A little bit of everything lately” offered a glimpse into their current life, leading to conjecture among observant fans who noticed a particular gesture from McCaffrey commonly associated with pregnancy announcements.
One Instagram user remarked, “I see a pregnancy announcement in the future.”
Another commented, “Huhhhh. Baby?”
Yet another user noted, “Why did my heart stop with the hand placement on the belly?”
What hints at Culpo’s potential pregnancy?
In a charming black and white photograph, McCaffrey beams as he gazes at Culpo, with his right arm resting on her abdomen while she wears a floral white dress and reciprocates his smile.
Couples often signal impending pregnancies by placing a hand on or above the abdomen, subtly indicating to others that something significant may be on the horizon.
The accompanying photos in the post showcase glimpses of their stylish home, their dog, Culpo’s fashion modeling, and a sweet moment of the couple holding hands in their car.
