Paris Hilton patted her sister Nicky's baby bump

The mum-to-be, who is believed to be around six months pregnant, had an unmistakable glow and wore her hair tied back into a sleek ponytail.

The event was held in order to raise money to support Foundation Fighting Blindness, which drives research to provide preventions, treatments and cures for people affected by eye conditions. It was attended by a number of famous faces including Leonardo DiCaprio, Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and model Crystal Renn.

Paris appeared to have enjoyed her evening out and shared a photo of herself with Nicky on Instagram, which she captioned: "Love my beautiful sister."

"Nicky is very excited to become a mom, she is feeling great!" a source told People at the time. "They've just begun telling close friends and family. Nicky and James are over the moon!"

The happy news capped off an incredible 12 months for Nicky and James, who tied the knot in front of their family and friends at The Orangery in Kensington Palace in July. The beautiful bride stunned in a bespoke lace Valentino dress, and enlisted her sister Paris Hilton as her maid of honour.
