Photographer and friend Jerome Duran took to Instagram to share a photo of the 27-year-old’s bare and pregnant body on Friday, congratulating the new mother. “THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MAMA Congratulations!! @angelcandices @hermannicoli Welcome Anacã!!!

Throughout her pregnancy, Swanepoel shared a number of photos with fans and followers on social media, even revealing the sex of her baby online. “My not so little boy,” she captioned one of her shots.
Swanepoel’s bundle of joy comes weeks after best friend and fellow Victoria’s Secret angel Behati Prinsloo welcomed her first child with her rocker husband Adam Levine.
Dusty Rose was born on 21 September (16) and the happy parents shared the first picture of their bundle of joy when she was just two days old.
Swanepoel and Nicoli have been dating for over 10 years. The South African model fell in love with the Brazilian hunk when she was just 17 after meeting in Paris, France.
