Model Emily Ratajkowski has announced she is pregnant with her first child.

The 29-year-old broke the news via Vogue magazine where she featured on a new digital cover cradling her bump.

Posting the cover on her Instagram, she wrote: "Grateful and growing. Thank you @voguemagazine for this very special cover."

Writing in the magazine, Ratajkowski said she and husband Sebastian Bear-McClard don't want to reveal the gender of their unborn baby.

She said: "Who will this person be? What kind of person will we become parents to? How will they change our lives and who we are? This is a wondrous and terrifying concept, one that renders us both helpless and humbled.

"I like the idea of forcing as few gender stereotypes on my child as possible. But no matter how progressive I may hope to be, I understand the desire to know the gender of our foetus; it feels like the first real opportunity to glimpse who they might be.

"As my body changes in bizarre and unfamiliar ways, it's comforting to obtain any information that might make what's coming feel more real."

She also shared a short video of herself, showing off her bump, directed by pal Lena Dunham.

Posting the clip she wrote: "I'll cherish this video as long as I live. Link in bio to watch. @voguemagazine

"Thank you to my brilliant and very generous friend @lenadunham for her vision and commitment to directing this. I'm so grateful.

"And thank you to my other wonderful friend @eccopn for his music and to @dschneids for her editing! You all made this the most special. Written and filmed by me. Shot at home."

Her announcement has been flooded with messages of congratulations and well-wishes from her celebrity pals, including Paris Hilton, who wrote: "So happy for you" and Ashley Graham who commented: "I'm in love with this video! So happy for you!"
