In view of her 30,000 followers, Alejandra shared an upload of the pair from Rotterdam in the Netherlands.
They were seen with the Dalai Lama, who placed a tender hand on the beauty’s middle while Richard held her around her waist.
He was dressed smartly in a dark suit, while the pregnant beauty was clad in a black coat and orange scarf.
She captioned it: ”A very special moment just a few minutes ago… Getting blessings for our precious to come.
"We couldn't announce it before telling HH Dalai Lama."
