Henao first revealed she was pregnant in January with an Instagram post showing off her baby bump, captioned simply, "18 weeks??."
On Christmas, Henao shared a snapshot of herself with Connolly posing by their tree as the actor rested his hand on her stomach. "Merry Christmas y Feliz Navidad from our family to yours!" she wrote alongside the photo. "All Praise to our Father in Heaven."
Since announcing her pregnancy, Henao has posted several shots of her growing baby bump on social media. In April, the Illegal Tender actress shared a luminous photo of herself cradling her stomach alongside a reflective caption about being pregnant.
"I'm going to miss being pregnant, the reverence, love, compassion and encouragement I've received from friends, complete strangers and you my social media fam... has been humbling," she wrote at the time. "Miracles are happening everyday, and I am reminded during this beautiful time how much more alike we are than not."
