Model Iskra Lawrence Expecting Baby No. 2 with Boyfriend Philip Payne
The Aerie model and music producer are already parents to 4-year-old son Alpha
Iskra Lawrence is going to be a mom again!
On April 18, the British model, 33, announced in an Instagram post that she is expecting her second child with boyfriend, music producer Philip Payne, almost four years to the date she welcomed her first baby boy, Alpha.
"4 years later and we are finally going to be a family of 4 🥹," Lawrence began her lengthy caption, alongside photos of her, Payne and their 4-year-old son. Lawrence wore a Hutch white lace dress in the photos.
The Saltair founder also stated in the caption that she was partnering with the pregnancy test brand First Response to hold a cash giveaway for her followers — $20,000 to two of her Instagram followers.
"4 years ago I gave away $10k each to Sara & Skye during my first pregnancy and it’s hard not to cry writing this but both now have their rainbow babies 🌈and it’s truly been my greatest honour being part of their journeys and I can’t wait to do this again," she continued.

"1 in 6 people are affected globally by infertility and 1 in 4 women experience miscarriage, pregnancy loss or still birth and there is no where near enough support, education or on going research into women’s health so let’s continue to end the shame, stigma and silence," Lawrence finished. "Good luck my loves🫶."
"I can’t believe I can finally share this big little news with you all 🥹🥹🥹," she added in another comment underneath the post.
Lawrence welcomed Alpha with Payne in April 2020. In the weeks after their son's birth, the model and her longtime boyfriend got candid about the scarier parts of the birth in a vlog shared to her YouTube channel.
In the moments after delivering her son, Payne recalled, the baby "wasn't breathing for two or three seconds," Payne said.
"When you look back and you just see a lifeless, blue body ... that was really scary," the Aerie model recalled. But once her son got oxygen and the couple heard his cries, they breathed huge sighs of relief.
"It all happened so quick that it wasn't traumatizing," she added. "I couldn't even take in what was happening 'cause [Ellie] just dealt with it. She was like, 'I know what exactly I'm doing, there's nothing scary here, we've got this.'"

Lawrence met Payne, a former University of Texas football player, in January 2018, per Us Weekly. Opening up about their first meeting at a Grammy party with City Lifestyle, Payne said that she had caught his eye many times before on social media or at parties, but this one night "left an impression."
"I saw her and tried to not act like I was looking at her," he recalled. "She said she caught my eye, but I thought I was being pretty smooth. I walked up to her and the first thing I said was, ‘Are you in a relationship?’ She said, ‘It's complicated,’ and I introduced myself and put my number in her phone. Then I just walked off. I thought I left an impression. She smiled, it was perfect."

"His presence just made everyone feel seen and comfortable, made the whole vibe calm and peaceful," she said of her boyfriend. "He still does that to this day with our son and anyone. It's definitely a gift of his to make everyone around him feel at ease."
