Princess Stephanie of Monaco's son Louis Ducruet has posed for a beautiful family photograph to celebrate his wife's pregnancy.
In the photo, Louis and his wife Marie are a smiling image of domestic bliss as he rests his hand lovingly on her pregnant belly. The couple are also joined on the sofa by their adorable pet dog Pancake.
The photo was shared by Marie via her Instagram on Friday.
Marie captioned the photograph "MY OWN FAMILY"
Marie and Louis announced they were expecting their first child in November 2022. Again, they took to Instagram to do this, and celebrated the occasion with another wonderful photo featuring their dog Pancake in a sweet 'soon to be big brother' T-shirt.
"An adventure is about to begin," Marie teased in her caption.

The couple have since published further insights into their baby journey, including another portrait of Marie which she posted for her 30th birthday with the caption: "Goodbye twenties, welcome big belly".
The pair also shared some images and a video from their gender reveal party in December. Pancake featured heavily once more as he dragged around the pink balloons which celebrated the news that the couple will soon be having a baby girl.
