‘The journey to you has made me realise I am stronger than I ever thought I could be and I can do anything with your dad’s support.
‘You were definitely worth the wait and I am so ready to hold you in my arms and be your mumma baby girl,’ she added, before sending ‘extra love’ to other women trying to conceive saying: ‘You are so strong, I see you, I am you.’
Jules also shared a short video on her Instagram Story of a cute baby dress for her unborn daughter, and wrote: ‘My heart cannot deal with this level of cuteness.’
The couple’s friends and family congratulated the couple on their exciting news, including Jessie Murphy, the wife of AFL star Marc Murphy, who wrote: ‘Congratulations you two.’
Brisbane Lions player Archie Smith commented: ‘Congrats you two,’ while retired netball star Nat Medhurst said: ‘Massive congrats to you guys.’
Lachie and Jules tied the knot in November, 2018, in Perth.
He switched teams from Fremantle to the Lions after seven seasons in order to settle down in Brisbane with Julie shortly after they wed.
He explained at the time that a move to Brisbane had been difficult for Julie, who had built a hairdressing business ‘from scratch’ and had to give it up to build a relationship across the country with him.
The couple’s exciting baby news comes after Lachie suffered an injury in a game against the Geelong Cats last week at GMHBA Stadium in Victoria.
