Sarah Abo celebrated the upcoming birth of her first child this weekend.
The Today show host, who is expecting her first child with husband Cyrus Moran, was absolutely glowing as she joined friends and family for a low-key party.
The 39-year-old had her blossoming baby bump on display in a white gown that sat close to her figure, ensuring her belly was on display.
The semi-sheer frock was paired with a smattering of silver accessories, and Sarah was absolutely glowing with a natural makeup look.
Her white dress matched the décor at the event, which featured vases of lilies tied with satin ribbons.
The event also served as a gender reveal, with Sarah announcing she was having a boy via a vintage-style cake with ‘Oh boy’ written in pastel blue icing across the top.

Sarah recently opened up about her pregnancy journey, describing it as both joyful and challenging following what she called a ‘bumpy ride’ to conception.
In March, the TV star broke down in tears as she announced her happy pregnancy news on the Today breakfast show.
‘I’m going to try and fail to maintain my composure. But yes, Cyrus and I are expecting a little baby,’ she said.
‘I know, it’s obviously very happy news and everything… It hasn’t been the easiest journey to get here, which a lot of people I know have gone through and will go through.
‘It’s not as easy as you sometimes think that pregnancy will be.
‘So, it has been a bit of a bumpy ride, but here we are. And yes, it’s getting harder to hide.

‘As much as I’d like to bury my head in the sand and not address it, I think, yeah, we’re almost halfway now.’
Sarah’s co-host Karl Stefanovic also became teary as he shared his best wishes for the expectant couple.
‘I work next to you every day, and I know you had some dramas, right?’ he said.
‘And last year you had so much crap in the newspapers, and it was around that time, and you didn’t tell anyone.
‘You came to work, and your strength and courage during that was unbelievable. You fought that on your own with only a couple of people knowing.’
Shortly after the segment aired, Sarah took to Instagram to reflect on her happy news, uploading a photo of herself posing with her bump on display in a sheer long-sleeved top.
‘Well, I can’t keep trying to hide under a rock..! Yes, there is a baby in there. It’s our happy news after a bit of a bumpy ride,’ she wrote.
