And the actress, who shares her time between LA and Australia, couldn't be happier!

"There just aren't the words to describe how happy we are right now," Esther wrote on Instagram.

"We are so excited to welcome BABY MOGGS into our lives. So in love with this beautiful little soul already…"

Esther's husband and father of her soon-to-be born bub, who she married in February 2017, also shared his elation, adding on his own Instagram account: "We are so excited to become parents!"

The TV Week Gold Logie nominee first won over our hearts on Home And Away when she played Charlie Buckton, a police sergeant at the Bay's local cop shop, dating as far back as 2008.

She left the show for good in 2013, setting her sights on Hollywood – but just because she'd be jetting in and out of LA and Oz didn't mean the model/screen star would be miss the opportunity to appear on the fourth season of The Celebrity Apprentice Australia in 2015!

One year on, Esther and Andrew became engaged, tying the night in her hometown of Geelong, Victoria in February 2017.

After returning from their 10-day honeymoon in Hamilton Island in Queensland, the 38-year-old joked with The Morning Show co-hosts Kylie Gillies and Larry Emdur about hers and Andrew's baby plans saying they had been "practicing" for a baby. Andrew added: "We're working on it!"

Congrats, you two!
