AceShowbiz - Halle Bailey continues to fuel her pregnancy rumors with her latest outing. While she remains mum amid the mounting speculation that she's eating for two, the singer/actress has been spotted with an apparent baby bump while stepping out with her boyfriend DDG.
In new photos obtained by The Shade Room, the 23-year-old was strolling in Santa Monica, California with the rapper. She seemingly tried to conceal her round belly by dressing in multiple layers, including a red T-shirt underneath an oversized, dark hoodie, despite the warm weather.
"The Little Mermaid (2023)" star completed the outfit with gray sweatpants and slippers. She also carried a large black bag and was at one point seen talking to someone on the phone. Looking radiant, she flashed a smile after seemingly noticing the paparazzi.
The "Angel" songstress later entered a building headed towards a meeting, while DDG drove off in a Rolls Royce. The YouTuber opted for an all-black look in a T-shirt, baggy pants and shoes. He accessorized with a necklace while sporting a bandage on one of his arms.
After seeing the pictures, fans are more convinced that Halle is expecting her first child. "It doesn't get much more pregnant than this," one social media user commented. Another wrote, "I can't imagine having to hide such a joyous time in your life and relationship smh I hate that for her!!! We coulda all be celebrating!!!"
Someone else, meanwhile, asked for a clarification from the star as imploring, "@hallebailey can we please just get put in the group chat for one day. Are you having a baby mermaid? Or they photoshopped you? We won't judge!"
Halle has been rumored to be pregnant since August after she was spotted walking in the background with what appeared to be a baby bump during her boyfriend DDG's live stream. The speculation was reignited last month following Halle's appearance at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards.
The one-half of Chloe x Halle, who was on hand as presenter along with her sister Chloe Bailey, reportedly "stayed away from the pink carpet so she would not be photographed." An insider told Page Six that "when she was inside, she was very mindful in the way she gave hugs, and who she gave them to."
The actress/singer also opted for a long, flowing orange dress while introducing a performance by Maneskin on stage. A source said of her look at the event, "The orange dress flow was an indicator she was trying to hide."
In late September, Halle debuted her transformation in Instagram photos, which fans believed contained a clue to her alleged pregnancy. After observing her facial features, one person wrote, "Ok I love you Halle but is it me or is her nose spreading? If you are pregnant please embrace it it's a beautiful thing!"
Another weighed in, "No, it's not you, I see it too, congrats to her!" A third insinuated, "That nose doing what noses do when …" Another claimed, "That is the first thing I noticed! She is hiding the belly, baby that nose is," while a fifth follower asked, "Is that nose rounding?"
