Celebrity couple Romnick Sarmenta and Barbara Ruaro recently announced that they are expecting their first child together on Sunday, October 11.

Over on their respective Instagram accounts, Romnick and Barbara each posted a photo of a positive pregnancy test.

"Infinitely Blessed with Your Affirmation

"Iba Ka Panginoon, maraming salamat po," said Romnick.

"Thank You, dear God, for the gift of life!

"The cross that appeared on my test and this miracle as a whole is Your loudest yet most comforting affirmation.

"I praise and thank You for my Nicko, as well as all our friends and families who have expressed and continue to show their love and undying support.

"See you on February, Little Bean," captioned Barbara in her post.

This will be their first child together as a couple.

Romnick and Barbara recently confirmed their relationship last June after having netizens speculate over their status.

In 2018, the couple split, with Romnick posting an open letter detailing that there was no third party involved.

She also made headlines last 2019 when she posted about her ordeal with physical abuse on social media.
