Nina Agdal was all smiles in a trio of Instagram frames, shared to the model’s 1.8 million followers on Sunday, Jan. 26. In the group of snaps, the 33-year-old and her one-year-old daughter Esmé posed in front of a solid ivory backdrop and gave photographer Taylor Ballantyne’s camera a slew of sweet shots.

“How did i get so lucky? 🥹💞,” Agdal penned as the post’s caption, before crediting the photographer for a plethora of frames. In its cover image, the longtime Danish model—wearing a cropped long-sleeve white top, wide-leg denim jeans and gold jewelry—held onto her daughter, whom she shares with her husband Logan Paul. The IMPAULSIVE With Logan Paul podcast host headed to the comments of his wife’s post and swooned over the duo, writing, “melting 🥹.”

And Paul wasn’t the only commenter who gushed over the pair as they laughed alongside each other in the post’s second and third images. We also spotted a few fellow models under Agdal’s post—like Hailey Clauson, who dropped a single heart in the comment section.

“Adorable Nina ❤️😍,” Chanel Iman commented.

“🥹😍❤️ twinning,” Hannah Ferguson added.

“Cuties!” Katrina Scott exclaimed.

Agdal and Paul welcomed Esmé, their first child, in Sept. 2024, roughly one year before tying the knot on Lake Como in August, and nearly two years after Paul proposed to the longtime model at the same location in July 2023. In September of 2025, Agdal chatted with Haute Living about both of her major milestones and touched on her motherhood journey with the publication.

“I don’t think I was prepared for how big the change of having a baby is for a woman. You definitely hear about it, and people say you can’t prepare for it — and that’s the truest statement of all time,” Agdal told the outlet. “You simply cannot prepare for what happens when your baby enters the world—in the most magical, positive, and out-of-body-experience way.”

And yet, Adgal adapted and embraced the uncharted territory. “Transitioning from my previous lifestyle to my entire existence revolving around caring for this baby wasn’t easy. Yet, at the same time, it’s one of life’s most rewarding and incredible experiences,” the model added. "You don’t realize the capacity your heart has to love someone so deeply — it’s like your heart beats outside of you.”
