The Dutch model, 25, was dressed in a beige knit crop top with spaghetti straps and a pair of tiny white shorts with black stitching around the hem.
Her top rode up on her belly as her shorts dropped down, revealing her tummy and extended navel.
With one hand she cradled her bump as she turned sideways to gaze directly into the camera.
Her long blonde hair tumbled loose around her shoulders and down to her waist.

It’s believed that Strijd is about five months along in her pregnancy,
She’s previously revealed that she and husband Laurens van Leeuwen are having a baby girl.
The Victoria’s Secret Angel announced her pregnancy in May and at the same time, shared on social media how she’d been diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome, which can greatly impact fertility and make it very hard for women to naturally conceive.
Strijd wrote: ‘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.’

She went on : ‘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. 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 travelling all the time (no biorhythm), working out every day, eating super clean (restricting foods).’
She continued: ‘I think I pressured my body too much, and honestly every body is so different but I think my weight was not good for my body to function properly and couldn’t handle the constant traveling.’
The model explained: ‘This was the point where I started to research natural healing for PCOS and came to the conclusion that I should do way less high intensity training, don’t restrict foods, be nice to myself, and take breaks when needed.’
Strijd and van Leeuwen, whose father is a famous TV presenter in the Netherlands, eloped in October 2018 after dating since 2010.
