This will be the 32-year-old Kiwi musician's first child. The adorable video shows the couple's baby wriggling and kicking inside the womb.

A number of Kiwi celebrities and personalities took to social media to congraulate Marvelly and her partner, including P Money, Kim Crossman, and Megan Mansell.

She shares the baby joy with wife Lisa Gerrard, whom she married in an intimate ceremony in December last year, after their ceremony was initially delayed due to Covid-19.

At the time, the opera star tweeted a snap of her with her new wife on their wedding day captioned, "I married the love of my life, my best friend, my everything. My beautiful wife."
