Romee Strijd couldn’t help but show off her growing baby bump during a trip to the beach on Thursday.
The 25-year-old Victoria’s Secret Angel looked totally relaxed as she showcased her figure in a short video posted to her Instagram Stories.
The model displayed her impeccable pout while highlighting her striking black one-piece bathing suit, which featured a cut-out panel for her tummy.

Romee jazzed up the string halter top by wearing it over one shoulder and tucked under the other.
The top featured square cups and a ruched band over her midriff, and the black bottoms were held together by thin straps of fabric at her sides.
The catwalk star matched her suit with a pair of thick black cat-eye sunglasses, and she wore her golden blonde locks in a tall updo.

Romee seemed to delight in showing off her baby bump, but she also proved she had a sense of humor about her impending motherhood in another photo posted to her Insta Stories.
She showed off her figure with the sea at her back as she gazed off into the distance.
‘My future [black heart emoji] Behind the stroller,’ she captioned the snap.
The model has been enjoying plenty of time at beaches in the Netherlands throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
Earlier this month, she shared photos from a day out in the sun with her fellow Angel Taylor Hill and other friends.
Despite the ongoing pandemic, neither she nor anyone in the photos appeared to be wearing masks to slow the spread of the virus.
Unlike in many other nations, Dutch public health officials have resisted calls to mandate or even recommend non-medical mask use, aside from on public transit, where they’re required.

Romee announced she was expecting her first child with her husband Laurens in May, and revealed they were expecting a baby girl in June.

‘We can’t wait to meet our little girl,’ captioned the runway star, adding a heart emoji for good measure.
Romee and Laurens, whose father is a famous TV presenter in the Netherlands, eloped in October 2018 after dating since 2010.

The model revealed last month that she was expecting her first child, following a year’s long struggle with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) that kept her from having periods for years.
Romee wrote that ‘2 years ago I got diagnosed with PCOS after not getting my period for 7 years. I was devastated because being a mom and starting a family with @laurensvleeuwen is my biggest dream..
‘I was so scared that I would never be able to because I got told it was harder to get babies in a natural way.. I started to research PCOS and came to the conclusion that mine was not the typical pcos,’ she added.
The model revealed: ‘Mine was because of my body being in fight or flight mode.. which means my body was under constant stress. I never felt mentally super stressed so it was hard to understand this, but my life consisted of traveling all the time (no biorhythm), working out every day, eating super clean (restricting foods).’
Her solution was to give up the high-intensity training she had been doing and not to restrict her food choice, as well as being ‘nice to myself’ and taking breaks whenever she needs them.
