The mathematician recently revealed she is loving every minute of “pregnant married” life.
She is expecting her first child with her husband, former Strictly Come Dancing pro Pasha Kovalev.

Rachel thrilled her Twitter followers with a string of pics from the trip, with the first showing the star in a striped beach cover-up as she stood on a wall with the ocean behind her.

She captioned the posts: “The new joys of pregnant married life – Pasha digging me a belly hole on the beach for my bump each day!
“Thanks for the @DockAndBay beach stuff. @DeborahMeaden, absolutely loving my poncho!”

It is not yet known whether the couple are expecting a boy or a girl, but Rachel teased her fans over the gender in another snap from their Spanish holiday.
She posted a photo of the two of them looking loved up at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao and wrote: “Half-way bump and all brewing nicely!
“Mother’s intuition says it’s definitely a girl. Or a boy. Or a cockapoo…”
Rachel and Pasha married in a low-key ceremony in Las Vegas at the end of June, after which she announced the news on social media by introducing herself as ‘Mrs Kovalev’.

“They did it in complete secrecy — even most of their friends and family had no idea they were going there to get married.”
Speaking further, the source said the wedding was a “closely guarded secret” but in the end, Rachel and Pasha “pulled it off” and surprised their delighted loved ones.
