参考这个例句:
......, without much money and was working as a hat-check girl when she met her millionaire husband-to-be, Frank Brach.

to-be
/təˈbiː/ adj
  — used to indicate what someone will be at a future time;
  — used in combination
   his bride-to-be [=his future bride]
   the father-to-be

-to-be-to-be
1.■(in compounds 构成复合词) future 未来的;准:

his bride-to-be 他的准新娘

mothers-to-be (= pregnant women) 准妈妈们


Etymology: from the infinitive phrase to be
: that is to be : future — usually used postpositively and often in combination
< mothers-to-be >
< his victim to-be — Stuart Atkins >
< a charming bride-to-be >
what is to be : future
< I work and write for the to-be — Marie Corelli >


-to-'be
suffix
1. bride- / husband- / parent- etc to-be,  someone who will soon be married, soon be a parent etc
• 准新郎/丈夫/父母等:
»a magazine aimed at young mums-to-be
