Baby bumps on the Brownlow red carpet

It’s AFL’s night of nights, and it looked to be the year of the baby bumps gracing the red carpet at the 2018 Brownlow Medal Awards.

Nadia Bartel, Hester Brown and Marnie O’Connor were among the AFL WAGS showing off their growing tummies at The Crown in Melbourne, and we must admit, they were absolutely glowing.

Jimmy Bartel’s wife Nadia arrived wearing a stunning white J’Aton gown that featured a cut-out buttoned at her lower back.

This will be the couple’s second child alongside their two-year-old son Aston who apparently is already asking for his baby brother to be called ‘Lachie’.

Back in April Nadia made the big announcement that she and Jimmy were expecting another baby.

Baby 2 is cooking another boy is on the way,” she wrote, before adding, ( and no his name won’t be Lachie, to Aston’s disappointed” #15weeks”.

Meanwhile back on the Brownlow red carpet on Monday night, Nadia wasn’t the only WAG exuding a beautiful pregnancy glow.

Ben Brown’s partner Hester sported an embellished nude-coloured dress by wedding dress designer Gwendolynne as she revealed her growing bump while posing for photographers.

Another AFL star’s partner to nail maternity style on the red carpet was St Kilda player Sebastian Ross’ partner Marnie O’Connor.

Marnie was snapped cradling her baby bump while she stunned in a glistening white V-neck gown.
