Caterina and her boyfriend of eight years, French lawyer Édouard Rigaud, are expecting a baby boy as she’s due at the end of the summer, shortly before turning 48 in September.
The Italian actress went on to say that Édouard has supported her during her difficult journey to get pregnant after suffering two miscarriage in the past and going through a “trying” IVF process.
Despite her difficult journey to motherhood, Caterina said she’s grateful to finally begin her new chapter as a mom, and said that she has had a fairly smooth pregnancy so far.
“I haven’t had any discomfort, no diabetes, no insomnia,” Caterina shared.
Caterina also talked about her pregnancy during an interview with Italian outlet Costa Smeralda.
“I feel I am living a magical moment,” she said. “Soon I will become a mother, and I believe we all have a huge responsibility today: raise conscious human beings.”
Congrats to the mom-to-be! See all of the other stars that are also expecting babies.
