Christian McCaffrey's wife Olivia Culpo makes her "baby daddy" feel like “ birthday king” during 3rd trimester of pregnancy

Christian McCaffrey turned 29 on Saturday, and his wife Olivia Culpo made sure the day was filled with love, laughs and the right amount of internet PDA.

The former Miss Universe, now in the final stretch of her pregnancy, celebrated her husband with a mix of heartwarming tributes on her Instagram story.

“Bday tings for the bday king,” Culpo wrote.

She posted a cozy breakfast moment that captured the NFL star smiling over the meal. In another snapshot, the couple shared a kiss, with Culpo’s growing baby bump on display.

“Everyone please wish the baby daddy the best bday!!!!” Culpo wrote.

The social media love didn’t stop there. In a separate post, Culpo penned an emotional message that offered a rare glimpse into their relationship.

“Happy birthday to my favorite person,” Culpo wrote. “Every year with you somehow feels more meaningful than the last and I really can't believe I get to share this life — and everything ahead — with you.”

The couple, who tied the knot in 2023 after a long engagement, have openly shared glimpses of their journey. Their love story began in 2019 when McCaffrey liked one of Culpo’s Instagram posts. Culpo, who had once sworn off dating athletes, told Entertainment Tonight that McCaffrey changed her perspective, citing his family values and down-to-earth nature.

Since announcing their pregnancy in March, Olivia Culpo has been documenting her experience online. She has posted moments of joy, candid takes on swollen ankles and missing out on "hot girl summer."

Culpo also revealed that she’s choosing not to find out the baby’s gender before birth, focusing instead on her health and well-being. Meanwhile, McCaffrey reportedly keeps changing his mind about whether he wants to know the baby's sex before delivery.

Their lighthearted approach to parenting has made waves online. On May 27, Culpo went viral on TikTok for a skit where she playfully dragged McCaffrey’s “lifeless” body across the floor. It was in response to him commenting on her belly being bigger than a pineapple-sized baby.

Last season, the 49ers running back was sidelined by injuries and appeared in just three games — a drop-off following his All-Pro campaign in 2023.
