Hey everyone, it’s Sussan Mourad here with Clevver News and Gigi Hadid is finally showing
the world a glimpse of her beautiful baby bump and is absolutely glowing as a mamma
to be!
A few months ago, Gigi confirmed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon that she was in fact
pregnant.
We wish we could have announced it on our own terms, but we are very excited and so
grateful and happy for everyone’s well wishes and support.”
It was later confirmed that the father is boyfriend, Zayn Malik.
Since then, news and updates on Gigi’s pregnancy have been pretty quiet...until recently.
At the end of June, one fan asked Gigi on Instagram where her tummy was, asking, QUOTE;
“How do you not have a tummy?
I’m 4 months into my pregnancy and my tummy is huge.
You look great tho!”
To which Gigi responded by saying, QUOTE; “This angle and the really baggy jumpsuit
make for an optical illusion.
From the side it's a different story!”
The innocent exchange led to outlets writing headlines such as, "Gigi Hadid Reveals How
She Disguises Her Pregnancy.”
Naturally, Gigi wasn’t happy with those choice of words, and took to Twitter to express
her disgust, writing, QUOTE; “Disguise ....? I said in a baggy jumpsuit the front and side
views are visually different stories- not that that was intentional or I was trying
to hide anything.
Will be proud and happy to share “insight” when I feel like it, thanks.”
She added, “For now I am proudly experiencing and sharing this time with my family and loved
ones.”
Earlier this month Gigi’s Dad, Mohamed Hadid, posted a sweet photo of some of his family,
including son Anwar’s girlfriend Dua Lipa, picnicing on Insta, showing Gigi, her siblings
and some friends sitting under a tree.
However; Gigi’s belly was covered up with a fairy emoji.
The caption read, QUOTE; “Miss you my beautiful family under the willow tree picnicking.
Miss you all.”
So up until now we had not seen Gigi’s baby bump and of course we absolutely respect Gigi’s
choices, pregnancy is such a personal thing and just because Gigi is a celebrity doesn’t
mean she needs to share everything online.
So when Gigi was going to be ready to share her baby bump with us all, you know that we’re
all going to be incredibly excited!
And that just happened!!
While promoting her Gigi Journal Part II with V Magazine during an Instagram Live Wednesday,
she discussed her previous comments about her jumpsuit and baby bump.
“Everyone’s like ‘Oh you didn’t look pregnant in your jumpsuit on your last live.’
That’s because this way I’m going to look how I normally look in this.
The reason I said it’s a different story is like, okay there’s my belly y’all…
like it’s there.”
Awwww.
And Gigi went on to explain that her reason for wearing the baggy clothes was so she could
actually breathe and feel comfortable.
“I can wear the draw-string pants below my belly.
…. Like it’s so f****** hot and sweaty especially when you’re pregnant.
Just like so hot and sweaty”
“But yeah they let my belly air out because it’s just so hot, so yeah.”
But with approximately two months left in her pregnancy, many fans wanted to know why
she hadn’t been sharing her journey with her millions of followers.
“Obviously my pregnancy is not the most important thing going on in the world.
That's a reason that I felt that it's not really something that I need to share apart
from with my family and friends.
Obviously a lot of people have lost lives due to coronavirus that was in the beginning
of quarantine and still happening.
And then we moved obviously into the reemergence of the BLM movement, and I thought that our
presence on social media should be used for that.”
Gigi later confirmed that she has been documenting during her pregnancy and will share it with
her fans when she feels the time is right.
“I’m just like taking my time with sharing my pregnancy and you guys will see it when
you see it.”
And there you have it!
Gigi is going to share when she wants to share, and we’re so ok with that!
So for all of you wanting more, you’ll just have to wait.
