The 64-year-old celebrity chef’s son, restaurateur Luciano Pierre White, 33, and his 35-year-old fiancee, fashion designer Stephanie Beard, announced they are expecting their first baby together with a sweet Instagram upload on Monday (20.07.26).
Luciano and Stephanie’s post included two black-and-white shots – a cosy one of the pair at a restaurant as they held a sonogram, and another of the duo in a car as she displayed her bump – and a picture of the beauty showing off her pregnant look on a beach.
The couple’s followers flooded the post’s comments section with congratulatory messages, as one penned: “Congratulations, Marco is going to be such a fun grandad.”
A second supporter typed: “This is the most wonderful news! Congratulations.”
And a third fan wrote: “Congratulations to the parents-to-be! May the baby arrive healthy and full of light, bringing infinite blessings to your home.”
In January, Luciano and Stephanie announced their engagement on Instagram.
They posted a loved-up selfie of themselves while they watched the sunset from a restaurant that overlooked the ocean, as the Silked London clothing brand founder showed off her diamond ring.
Marco – who was the first and youngest British chef to be awarded three Michelin stars at the age of 33 in 1999 – reacted in the post’s comments section.
He penned: “Congratulations L+S. (sic)”
Meanwhile, a supporter reacted: “So over the moon for you beauties !!! Such Happy news , Love you xxx (sic).”
And a second follower said: “Bravo to you both.”
Marco has four children – Letitia with his first wife, Alex McArthur, as well as Luciano, Marco Jr., and Mirabelle from his third marriage to Matilde Conejero, a bar manager at The Canteen in Chelsea Harbour, London,
In May, the TV personality – whose second wife was model Lisa Butcher – said he adores being a granddad.
He explained to The Telegraph: “I kind of like being a grandfather. It’s nice. They’re fascinated by me. What’s interesting is I can see my mother within them. It’s like my children, they look more like me than I look like myself.”
