The video featured Hailey and her husband, Justin Bieber (Canadian Singer), kissing and hugging on a grassy field. They had also uploaded a series of photos in which Hailey (27) showed off her cute little baby bump dressed in a white lacy dress by Saint Laurent, with Justin (30) taking photos of her.

Hailey’s representative confirmed to USA Today , stating that she is “a little over six months along” in her pregnancy.

Deepika Padukone

Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, who married in 2018 after dating for six years, announced the news of their pregnancy on their official Instagram handles on February 29, 2024. The simple post, featuring cute baby items, revealed that the couple will welcome their first child in September this year. Priyanka Chopra, who co-starred with the couple in Bajirao Mastani and worked with Ranveer Singh in Dil Dhadakne Do and Gunday, wrote, “Mubarak,” along with a heart emoji. Vikrant Massey wrote, “Bahut bahut shubhkamnaen.” Sonakshi Sinha wrote, “Your best production yet.” “Congratulations,” wrote Kriti Sanon.

Speculation was rife since she allegedly tried to hide her stomach at the 77th BAFTA in London while donning a stunning shimmery saree and custom jewelry by Sabyasachi Mukherjee for the awards ceremony.

Natasha Dalal

Varun Dhawan and his fashion designer wife Natasha Dalal made headlines after revealing their first pregnancy on February 18. Despite previous speculation fueled by sightings of the couple at a Mumbai clinic last year, it was through a heartfelt Instagram post that the Jug Jugg Jeeyo actor shared the joyful news with fans. Taking to his Instagram handle, Varun Dhawan posted an elegant monochrome image from their living room. It depicted Varun Dhawan kneeling down, tenderly kissing Natasha Dalal’s baby bump while holding her hands. Their pet dog was also captured comfortably seated on the sofa, gazing directly at the camera. Varun Dhawan captioned the post, “We are pregnant. Need all your blessings and love #myfamilymystrength.”

Yami Gautam

Bollywood actress Yami Gautam is expecting her first child with filmmaker-husband Aditya Dhar. Yami and Aditya, who had kept their relationship under wraps, surprised their fans by tying the knot in an intimate ceremony in June 2021 in Himachal Pradesh. The couple officially announced pregnancy during the trailer launch event of their upcoming film Article 370 on February 8 in Mumbai. Reportedly her delivery is due in May 2024. “This film (Article 370) is a family affair. My brother was there, my wife was there and there is a baby on its way. It was an amazing time, the way the film happened, the way we got to know about the baby,” Aditya said in the launch event. Soon after Aditya made the announcement, Yami got emotional and teary-eyed. Prior to the official announcement, keen-eyed observers had speculated about Yami’s pregnancy as she discreetly concealed her baby bump under an oversized blazer, while Aditya attentively assisted her during their arrival and subsequent media interactions.

Richa Chadha

Bollywood couple Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal announced their first pregnancy on February 9. The couple took to Instagram and shared a joint post with a text 1 + 1 = 3, followed by a captivating photo of the couple gazing at each other. The caption read, “A tiny heartbeat is the loudest sound in our world.” The announcement triggered an outpouring of congratulatory messages from fellow celebrities. Kalki Koechlin expressed her support, saying, “Call me when you need,” while Dia Mirza conveyed her love with, “I love you three.” Ayushmann Khurrana and Karishma Tanna also joined the chorus of well-wishers, showering the couple with love and blessings. The couple secretly got married in 2020 amid the COVID pandemic but later celebrated their union in 2022 with friends and family.

Alana Pandey

Social media influencer and cousin of actress Ananya Pandey, Alana Pandey, is pregnant with her husband Ivor McCray, a US-based photographer. They tied the knot last year and are set to become parents. Taking to Instagram on February 28, Alanna posted a video from her nature-themed maternity shoot, revealing her first pregnancy. Alanna also gave a glimpse of her sonogram. Sharing the video, Alanna wrote, “We love you so much already, we can’t wait to meet you (wings emoji).” Reacting to the post, Ivor wrote, “I can’t wait to meet our baby, I love you.” Alanna’s mother, Deanne Panday, said, “Crying seeing your video, love you so much. I’m gonna be a grandma, so so so beautiful you look my baby girl. Can’t wait to see you. Yaaaaaaa whooo hoooooo I will be a grandma soon.” It was also revealed that they will be welcoming a baby boy.

Vanessa Hudgens

The 35-year-old actress is expecting her first child with her husband, MLB shortstop Cole Tucker. Hudgens, best known for her roles in “High School Musical” and “Spring Breakers,” married Tucker back in December 2023. Hudgens revealed her pregnancy in style, debuting her baby bump on the 2024 Oscars red carpet. The actress attended the Hollywood event in a black long-sleeved dress—custom-made by Vera Wang Haute—with a mock turtleneck, a bodycon silhouette that showcased her belly and a flowing train. She paired the statement look with an array of diamond-encrusted jewelry from Chopard, including a necklace, rings, and drop earrings. As she posed for photos and did interviews on the carpet, the expectant mom cradled her bump with her hands. She smiled as she fielded congratulations from people.
