Zana announced the happy news via her Instagram account, sharing a maternity shoot with her followers.

“We are thrilled to announce that our family will soon be growing to four! Baby Romano expected June 2020, we cannot wait to meet you,” she wrote.

The reality star, who posed next to Gianni and their one-year-old son, Leonardo, for the shoot also confirmed she was 12 weeks pregnant and shared a picture of her ultrasound.

The couple, who got a reputation as the villains on the 2016 season of the cooking competition, previously spoke to New Idea about the birth of Leonardo in August last year.

“I can't explain the love I felt when they put him on my chest for the first time and he looked straight at me,” Zana described.

She also spoke to the magazine about her tough pregnancy – the reality star struggled after gaining 25kg – and the trauma of a 24-hour labour.

“During the pregnancy, I went from 55 to 80 kilos and had bad morning sickness at the start, and pelvic girdle syndrome at the end,” she said.


On MKR 2016 both Zana and Gianni were known as the Porsche-driving lawyers, but the mum-to-be has left the legal life behind to focus on her passion for food and hospitality.
The former reality contestant now runs Italian espresso bar, Culpa, in Melbourne.
