Donald Trump is set to become a grandfather for the tenth time, after his son Eric and his wife Lara announced that they are expecting their second child together.

Along with the happy news, Lara, who is due in August, shared several sweet family photos that show the happy couple smiling at the camera alongside their one-year-old son Luke and their two beloved dogs.
‘Baby number two coming this August!!’ she wrote in her tweet, before adding that baby Luke and the pups are thrilled about the prospect of a new baby: ‘All of the boys are excited to become big brothers!!’

Any sign of a growing bump was also not visible last month, when Lara competed in the Los Olas Triathlon in Fort Lauderdale at four-months pregnant.
The expectant mother, who had not publicly shared the news of her pregnancy at the time, proudly posted images of herself and her friend Emily Aronson both during and after the race, with one photo showing Lara in a wet-suit, displaying a very flat stomach.
She revealed in the post that she had experienced a problem with her bike during the multi-sport race, and that she has endured ‘very rough water conditions’.
She captioned the post, saying: ‘Despite a bike mishap and very rough water conditions, today was a success! Another fun #LasOlasTriathlon in the books!’
The fitness fanatic also completed the Fort Lauderdale Half Marathon back in February with friend Emily Aronson, at which point she would have been approximately three-months pregnant.
She ran the course in 1 hour and 53 minutes placing 34th in her age group.

And it wouldn’t be the first time the 36-year-old has kept up her fitness regime while pregnant.
When she was almost nine months pregnant with her son Luke in August, 2017, Lara was seen working up a sweat in the gym.

Lara, who gave birth to her firstborn in September 2017, was filmed doing lunges with a weighted medicine ball.
She was also seen completing step up side kicks on a bench while celebrity trainer Michael Maloney encouraged her in a video shared to Instagram.
Speaking exclusively to Daily Mail Online in 2017, Lara revealed that she was ‘blessed with an incredibly easy pregnancy’ that allowed her to remain fit and active throughout.
Lara also admitted that she was ‘worried’ about the prospect of not being able to workout while pregnant.
She said: ‘I was always a little worried, because I had heard different things from different people about their pregnancies; some people have to stay in bed for months… you never know what you’re going to get.
‘I knew I needed to workout for my sanity, and I try and make it a daily habit if I can, so I count myself very lucky that I have been able to keep doing that while pregnant.’
Lara revealed that she had heard staying fit and active can make delivering a baby easier – and helps to ensure that the recovery time after birth is as speedy as possible.

‘I know it can make the delivery easier, which would be great,’ Lara said of her efforts to stay fit and healthy.
‘And it means that the recovery time after birth is often shorter,’ she added.
Lara also ran a half marathon in Palm Beach, Florida, in 2017 only three months after giving birth to Luke.
After completing the Las Olas Triathlon in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in March 2018, Lara reiterated the reason she enjoys working out.
Speaking to DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview, she said: ‘Exercise helps me maintain my sanity, and it’s a little more important now than ever. It’s a great stress reliever.
‘It’s an incredible feeling to finish one of these races. And I just love training for it,’ she added.
And all her hard work has definitely paid off, as the mother has showcased her toned physique on more than one occasion.
She shared a number of photos from family vacations in June and July of 2018 as she posed with baby Luke in bikinis that showcased her toned arms and stomach.
Similarly, Lara was spotted flaunting her toned stomach on a vacation to Mar-a-Lago before Christmas in December 2018, when she was seen going for a jog in black shorts and a sports bra.
On the same vacation, the 36-year-old sported a white bikini as she showed off her carved physique while parading around during the Trump family getaway.
