There were smiles all around as Rute donned a gorgeous white summer dress with her wavy hair hanging naturally down. The second picture shows a light-hearted celebration as Jota pretends to be pregnant with a football tucked under his shirt and thumb in his mouth, eyes gleaming.
Rebeca Tavares, married to Fabinho, said: "Beautiful family! Loved by God and us!" As Natália Loewe Becker added: "May God greatly bless this baby who is already very much loved!"
Earlier this year, the Portuguese international was seen showing his softer side by posting a romantic video of him proposing to his childhood sweetheart. The video begins with a picturesque lakeside setting where a table is set up for dinner. On the table is an engagement ring in a white box. The heart-warming video brought in thousands of messages of support.
