She announced she was pregnant with her first child in November.

And on Tuesday, The Block 2019 winner Tess Struber showed off her baby bump as she stepped off a plane in Townsville with her husband Luke on Tuesday. 

Tess and Luke had been attending a home and interiors show in Brisbane but experienced a tumultuous 24 hours, when their flight was diverted to Townsville in a bid to avoid cyclone Niran.

Baby on board! The Block 2019 winner Tess Struber showed off her baby bump as she stepped off a plane in Townsville with her husband Luke on Tuesday.

The couple kept it COVID safe while on their flight as they both donned a face mask amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The stunning blonde kept it casual for her flight, donning black bike shorts and a black faded T-shirt.

Her fellow The Block contestant and partner Luke appeared to be matching his wife as he wore a pair of black shorts and a faded black shirt.

The expectant dad proved chivalry is not dead as he carried two bags as they made their way off the plane.

She wore minimal makeup and accessorised with gold necklaces and a black bag with a gold chain detail. 

In December, Tess shared a glimpse of her baby bump with fans when she uploaded a short video to Instagram. 

Tess captioned the post with a moving baby emoji, which appeared to be dancing on her stomach.

Tess and Luke, who were winners of The Block 2019 and walked away with $730,000, announced they were pregnant in The Sunday Telegraph’s Stellar magazine.

‘We’re having a baby, and we’re so excited. It’s something we’ve been planning on for a while, and the stars aligned perfectly. I’m almost 20 weeks now, so I’m pretty pregnant,’ she told the publication at the time. 

‘I’ve lost my hair, I’ve had skin issues, I’ve been sick every day, I’ve had migraines, nose bleeds… but I’m loving every minute of it.’ 

'We haven't spent a dollar': Elsewhere in the interview, Luke surprisingly revealed that they're yet to spend any of the $730,000 cash prize they earned from The Block
