LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Halle Bailey still continues to battle rumors about her being pregnant. Halle was spotted in the crowd at an Italian Gucci fashion event, sitting next to Hanni.
The two engaged in conversation before the fashion show began. Videos capturing their interaction circulated on social media, garnering attention from fans who admired their friendship.
However, some viewers couldn't help but notice a subtle 'detail' in the photo.
Halle's recent behavior adds fuel to pregnancy rumors
Speculation about Halle's pregnancy has been circulating since August, and her recent actions have only added fuel to the fire.
Observant commenters noticed that Halle was not only sporting an oversized outfit to hide her figure, but she also strategically used her arms to protectively cover her stomach at the event.
Fans have picked up on these supposedly "clear" hints to speculate that her baby bump has begun to show.
During the Gucci event where she was recorded, Halle donned an oversized black blazer-style jacket layered over a white collared shirt, effectively concealing her midsection.
She was accompanied by her boyfriend DDG (Darryl Dwayne Granberry), who was dressed in full Gucci attire.
The rumors started in August because that is when Halle was first observed wearing loose-fitting clothing.
Halle Bailey's MTV awards outfit drew attention too
Last month, fans had compiled a video on social media platforms featuring various instances where Halle wore baggy outfits around her boyfriend.
In September, her outfit choice at the MTV Video Music Awards also drew attention.
She opted for a flowing orange halter gown with loose pleats that covered her stomach.
An insider at the VMAs disclosed that Halle deliberately avoided the pink carpet to avoid photographs and was cautious about physical contact, offering handshakes instead of her usual hugs.
Another source suggested that her choice of the "flowing orange dress" was an attempt to conceal her condition.
However, for now these are only rumors as the singer herself has not confirmed the news.
A few fans of the singer on Twitter have slammed such speculation as they felt it bordered on 'body shaming' the actress. They asserted that the actress might be uncomfortable with the few extra pounds she might have put on and thus was opting for loose fits.
However, most fans seemed to be on the baby bandwagon. A fan wrote "The last picture isn’t edited well enough, the bump is showing"
Another wrote "I’m Not Usually One For Celebrity Gossip But Halle Bailey Is 100% Pregnant Based On Her Recent Photos. Her Face Is Spreading, Her Clothes Are Baggy But The Belly Is Still Poking. Congrats Girl Lol"
One asked, "So is she pregnant do we know yet"
"This my first time hearing about this pregnancy stuff. Either she’s that or she’s just naturally gained weight. Her face and cheek area are noticeably bigger." a fan commented.
