Halsey

The "Closer" singer surprised the world when she revealed she and actor/screenwriter Alev Aydin (Lonely Boy) are expecting their first child together.

Taking to Instagram, the 26-year-old posed with her growing baby bump. "Surprise!" she captioned the image, adding a baby bottle, rainbow and angel emojis.

"Heart so full, I love you, sweetness," Alev wrote in the comments.

Alev and Halsey have been friends for years, and have been pictured together in public hanging out on several occasions, such as NBA games.

This isn't the first time Halsey has been pregnant, though she's struggled with fertility issues in the past. She went through a miscarriage in 2015 right before she was scheduled to perform. In 2018, she froze her eggs due to experiencing endometriosis, which she said had been one of the issues with her miscarriage.

"It as the relief of knowing that I wasn't making it all up and I wasn't being sensitive and it wasn't all in my head," she said of receiving that diagnosis. "It also kind of sucked to know that I was going to be living with this forever."

We're sending the couple our hearty congratulations and best wishes throughout this pregnancy.

Emily Ratajkowski

The supermodel and actress and her husband, Sebastian Bear-McClard, are expecting their first child together.
The 29-year-old revealed the happy news in a first-person piece for Vogue magazine, in which she also said she and her husband do not want to reveal the baby's gender.
"When my husband and I tell friends that I'm pregnant, their first question after 'Congratulations' is almost always 'Do you know what you want?' We like to respond that we won't know the gender until our child is 18 and that they'll let us know then.
"Everyone laughs at this. There is a truth to our line, though, one that hints at possibilities that are much more complex... the truth that we ultimately have no idea who – or rather what – is growing inside my belly."
She went on to say she doesn't like that we "force gender-based preconceptions onto people, let alone babies."
"I want to be a parent who allows my child to show themself to me. And yet I realize that while I may hope my child can determine their own place in the world, they will, no matter what, be faced with the undeniable constraints and constructions of gender before they can speak or, hell, even be born."
Emily and Sebastian married in a secret ceremony in 2018. The two started dating a few weeks earlier. Congrats to them on this incredible news!
