Her custom Gucci gown had enough room for her growing baby while still giving her a classic hourglass silhouette.

Ohanian, a tech entrepreneur who co-founded Reddit, also shared the happy news on his Twitter account.

“Mama & Papa love this parenting-thing, so we’re back at it, and @olympiaohanian is gonna be the best Big Sister—she’s been asking & praying for this for a minute,” his tweet read, referencing their first child Olympia Ohanian.
