Sasha shared a picture of her baby bump and the caption: “Half of me, half of you – beyond blessed .”
Grealish added: “Life’s biggest blessing .”
It’s the icing on the cake for football’s most delectable pairing.
The pair met as teens in Solihull, West Midlands at secondary school and haven’t looked back.
Jack has conquered the football world, winning the Premier League and Champions League.
While beautiful model Sasha has appeared in ad campaigns for the likes of Boohoo, L’Oreal, Pretty Little Thing, Lipsy and GHD.
Those career highs mean the pair can enjoy a glam lifestyle, including five-star holidays.
SunSport delves into their romance – starting from the beginning.
Teenage kicks
Grealish was on his way to becoming a professional footballer when he met Sasha.
Already ploughing through the youth ranks at Aston Villa, he was a popular boy of St Peter’s Roman Catholic Secondary School.
His good looks made him a favourite among the girls, even at that age.
At 13, Sasha was already recognised for her beauty.
She was spotted by a talent scout for a modelling agency while out on a shopping trip with her mum in Birmingham.
The gorgeous blonde would go on star in shoots for House of Fraser in her early years.
It wasn’t until both Grealish and Sasha turned 16 when they started dating.
Their relationship escalated quickly
Despite the longterm nature of their relationship, Sasha remained on the sidelines as Grealish’s career took off.
He was reportedly happy to purvey the image of a single man to aid his image.
And she didn’t have any insecurities when it came to their relationship, so a happy medium was found and their kept social media interactions to modest level.
However, intense interest in Grealish and his private life came to a head in 2021.
Not only did he play a starring role as England reached the final of Euro 2020, delayed a year because of Covid.

Grealish also earned a blockbuster British record transfer to Man City for £100million.
It was an immense time in his life, but Sasha was faced with her own difficulties.
Because of their romance, she was cruelly targeted by trolls on TikTok and Instagram to the tune of 200 death threats a day.
Sasha revealed: “They said, ‘I hope you get cancer and die’ or ‘I hope your whole family dies’.
“They say, ‘I hope the next time you’re in the car you crash it and die, I hope after Wembley you die’.”
Speaking on her YouTube channel, she added: “I was receiving 200 death threats a day. I’m not exaggerating when I say that.
“I had so many messages every single day. I still get them now, all day every day.”
Sasha needn’t worry
Jealousy was clearly a factor for her abusers, as Sasha’s own career began to take off.
She signed to Elite Model Management, where the work piled in.
The fashion influencer, who can count on an army 300,000 Instagram followers for likes and comments, then follow in Grealish’s footsteps as a model for Boohoo.
Pretty Little Thing also used Sasha to endorse their products.

While skincare tutorials in partnership with L’Oreal draw plenty of eyes to her social media accounts.
Sasha, herself, became a hot commodity for brands.
Who said romance is dead?
Making time for one another has allowed Grealish and Sasha to thrive as a couple.
Over the years, Grealish has enjoyed lads’ breaks in Las Vegas and Ibiza – but Sasha always comes first.
Back in 2022, they celebrated their 10-year anniversary like many loved-up couple would.
They cuddled up on the sofa and watched romantic movie The Notebook from a projector.
Then, at Halloween that same year, Grealish and Sasha dressed as Grease’s Danny and Sandy – with matching T-Birds leather jackets.
A couple in unison, romantic getaways were also the order of the day.
If Jack did go away with the boys, Sasha was treated to her own five-star holiday.
The most notable came in 2023, when Grealish whisked his beloved off to the legendary Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in the South of France.
World’s away from Cheshire, where they live in a £6million mansion, the resort boasts rooms that cost up to £14,000-per-night.

Grealish once whisked Sasha off to the South of France, where they stayed at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc
Just a short drive from the glitz and glamour of Cannes, the hotel has played host to some of the biggest names in history including Picasso and Cary Grant.
A new challenge
Jack and Sasha are getting ready to embrace parenthood.
Their announcement on social media was met with a chorus of well-wishes from the footballing fraternity.
England pal Jude Bellingham replied: “Congrats brother.”
While Three Lions skipper Harry Kane said: “Congratulations!! .”
The later could act as inspiration for Grealish, with family man Kane juggling life as an international footballer and devoted dad seemingly with ease.
