Princess Stephanie's daughter-in-law receives adorable kiss on her baby bump

Marie and Louis Ducruet are expecting their second child

A kiss for her baby sister! Marie and Louis Ducruet's daughter Victoire was photographed adorably kissing her mom's baby bump. New photos (see here!) of the growing family and their dog, Pancake, taken by photographer Valeria Maselli, were shared by Marie on Nov. 27.

"Soon to be 5 🎀," Princess Stephanie of Monaco's daughter-in-law simply captioned the Instagram post. 

Louis, Marie and their one-year-old daughter were all dressed in white tops and jeans for the family photo session. The soon-to-be parents of two also posed for a picture of just the two of them with Marie cradling her baby bump and her husband's hands on top of hers. 

Marie announced in June that she and Louis are expecting their second child. Her pregnancy announcement showed Victoire wearing a pink jacket that was embroidered with the words “Big Sis,” while Pancake looked on wearing a bandana that read: “Oh no, not again!”

Alongside the photos, she wrote (translated to English): "Pancake and goldilocks have an announcement to make... they are waiting for a new member in the fraternity, the family is growing 😍❤️.”

The following month, Marie revealed the baby's gender—a girl. She and Louis welcomed their first child, Victoire, in April 2023. Three days after giving birth, Marie introduced her daughter on Instagram, writing: "Our little family has grown with the arrival of our little Victoire ❤️." Victoire is Princess Stephanie's first grandchild.

In an interview with Point de Vue (published by HELLO! earlier this year), Marie admitted that she and Louis were "not opposed to the idea" of expanding their family. "Victoire is such an adorable child, she's making us want another," Marie said. "Two children would be perfect for me."

Louis added, "We'd like our children not to have a big age gap. We'll see what the future holds!"
