According to ¡Hola! magazine, Marta, 35, is pregnant with her and Carlos' first child, a baby brother or sister for Amancio Junior, six, the businesswoman's little boy with her ex-husband, international showjumper Sergio Álvarez Moyá.
The celebrity mum-to-be is the youngest daughter of Spain's and Europe's richest man, Amancio Ortega, 83, who co-founded the Inditex clothing empire from his Galicia home along with his late ex-wife Rosalía Mera.
Despite standing to inherit a fortune, Marta is frequently seen dressed in the latest ranges from the firm's best-known brand, the budget chain Zara, and her bridesmaids and pageboys last November all wore outfits from Massimo Dutti, one of the company's two mid-upper high-street labels, along with Uterqüe.
She did not wear the family designs at her wedding – instead opting for a one-off creation by Valentino – although Elle magazine has listed the latest Zara maternity garments with the newly-pregnant Marta in mind.
Marta was previously married to her childhood friend Sergio, for whom she later worked as a groom and with whom she regularly competed in top showjumping events, but they split in 2015 after less than three years of marriage.
Around a year later, she began dating Carlos, now 34, a PR and fine arts graduate from Pace University New York and son of Argentinian fashion designer Roberto Torretta.
At the time, Carlos was living out of a suitcase between Spain and the Big Apple, working as a model scout, but about a couple of years into their relationship, he moved in with Marta in a rented apartment in Madrid's up-market Salamanca district, running his own PR company, West Village Images.
Since the wedding, Carlos has begun working for Inditex and the couple has returned to live in Marta's native Galicia city of A Coruña.
Although Marta is the daughter of a billionaire and had a job for life set up waiting for her, she has had to work extremely hard at it – after starting her International Business Economics degree in A Coruña and finishing it at London's European Business School, she spent much of the rest of her 20s folding clothes, operating the till, stocktaking and attending to customers in Inditex's high-street shops.
Amancio Ortega wanted his only daughter from his second marriage to Flora Pérez Marcote to learn the business from the ground up, as an ordinary member of staff from entry level onwards, with the same hours and wages and no special treatment.
Her first job as shop assistant in Zara's cut-price 'younger sister' Bershka, in London, led on to working in practically every corner of the family empire, frequently abroad, with placements in Milan, Paris and Hong Kong.
For the last few years, she has worked in the Zara Woman product design and development department and for the Amancio Ortega Foundation, her father's corporate charity.
Just like her wedding to Sergio in 2012 – which ended with her husband returning to his native Asturias and taking his horses with him – Marta's nuptials with Carlos were front-page news and the subject of double-page spreads and photo reports in all of Spain's glossy magazines.
