Pregnant Bachelor star Olena Khamula shows a glimpse of her baby bump

She’s the Ukrainian model who left Richie Strahan spellbound on The Bachelor in 2016.

And on Wednesday, Olena Khamula shared a glimpse of her baby bump on Instagram while enjoying a sunny day at the beach.

The 27-year-old, who is expecting her first child with husband Rodney Maroun, smiled as she posed alongside her dog and her mother.

‘Took my belly out to the beach,’ she captioned the beachside snap.

In November, Olena admitted she was finding it hard to find clothes as she reached the third trimester of her pregnancy.

She shared mirror selfie on Instagram and wrote, ‘Third trimester! It’s getting harder to find clothes,’ adding a crying-with-laughter emoji. 

In August, Olena and Rodney hosted a gender reveal party.

Sharing a video from the event to Instagram, the makeup artist revealed she was having a boy after blue confetti fell from a popped balloon.

Bachelor fans will remember Olena for her sometimes hostile conversations with leading man Richie towards the end of the fourth season.

During hometown week, she confronted the rope-access technician about whether he was ready for a long-distance relationship.

At one stage, she lost her temper and snapped: ‘You want to live in a fairy tale but this is the real s***!’ 

When she was sent packing at the subsequent rose ceremony, Olena looked like she hardly cared as she offered Richie a stilted, formal farewell. 

Olena began dating property developer Rodney Maroun shortly after filming The Bachelor. They married in December 2019.

Richie ended up splitting with his winning contestant, Alex Nation, and is now in a relationship with Carson Jory.
