The AFL superstar cut a casual figure in black trackpants and a blue and white jumper, which he paired with matching Nike sneakers. 

Meanwhile, Jesinta looked stunning in a pink peasant style dress that flowed over her burgeoning baby bump. 

She paired the look with Christian Dior slides and wore a face mask amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The expectant mother tied her brunette tresses back into a bun and appeared to go makeup free as she shaded her eyes with a pair of sunglasses. 

Meanwhile, Tullulah looked adorable in an all-white ensemble with lacy mustard socks. 

Jesinta was later spotted carrying the tot on her hip as they ran errands in Sydney.

The outing comes as Jesinta and Buddy countdown the weeks until the arrival of their second child. 

Jesinta confirmed she was ‘halfway through’ her second pregnancy in an interview with Vida Glow in October.

‘It was a very big surprise for us. Tullulah [her daughter] will be getting a sibling at the end of March next year, so she will have just turned one,’ she said.

‘So I’ll have a 13-month-old and a newborn, which was very daunting at first. I found out a week after Buddy went into the [AFL] hub, which was all just a lot to deal with at once.’

‘It was very hard to conceive the first time with Tullulah, and for this [pregnancy] to be such an unplanned surprise is a blessing,’ she added.

‘I had the moment where, that I wished for with Tullulah, where you pee on a stick and it’s such a surprise and it’s very exciting.

‘So I got that moment where I feel like I missed out on with Tullulah just because of all the challenges.’

Jesinta and Buddy married in a lavish Blue Mountains ceremony in November 2016.
