Natalie Gruzlewski likes to keep her private life private, but it was clear something unusual was going on when the 35-year-old beauty starred in a fashion shoot for The Weekly in September.
Half-way through the shoot, Natalie’s impossibly handsome boyfriend Jack Ray, 27, showed up for moral support, lots of hugs and more than a few knowing looks.

A few weeks later, the cat was out of the bag: Natalie and Jack announced they were engaged and expecting their first child together.
The baby is due in March and the couple are beside themselves with happiness as they prepare to become parents.
“Jack and I are over the moon with excitement for the arrival of our baby, it’s such a special time,” Natalie says.
Jack proposed to Natalie earlier this year while they were enjoying a brief holiday sandwiched between Natalie’s various work commitments.
“The proposal was a beautiful weekend together a few months ago at the Crystal Creek Rainforest Retreat in northern NSW,” Natalie says.
Natalie met Jack shortly after she divorced her first husband, champion surfer Luke Egan, in 2010. They have been inseparable ever since, and share a home on Queensland’s Gold Coast.
