Halle Bailey is letting the world know she is not having those rumors swirling about her pregnancy. Halle has been subject to pregnancy rumors for years, with netizens scrutinizing her figure and changing body at every turn. More recently, she became the subject of rumors again after eagle-eyed fans spotted pregnancy signs in recent social media posts. These blew up the long-prevailing speculations that the 23-year-old is pregnant with her boyfriend and rapper DDG’s baby.
Halle Bailey Flaunts Flat Abs in New Photos
Days after her pregnancy rumors put Halle Bailey in the headlines once again, the star appears to shut down the speculations for good. Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, August 22, the Little Mermaid star shared a series of photos showing her rocking an all-black ensemble. The outfit comprised a leather coat worn over high-waist baggy pants and a strapless crop top that bared her mid-riffs.
Halle looked stunning in the ensemble, which flattered her trim physique. Her flat, toned abs, which became the center of attention, served as the ultimate proof the actress lacked the “8 months” baby bump fans initially speculated about. In the first photo, the star, in her remarkable outfit, positioned herself for a selfie while seated in a car.
The next snap showed her posing with her sister Chloe Bailey who also rocked an all-black ensemble. For the last photo, Halle Bailey stood in front of a mirror, flaunting her full-length, with no tummy bulge. As further proof the photos were recent, the icon let fans know she took them the previous night, captioning,
“Last night with @vspink.”
Several of Halle Bailey’s fans immediately interpreted the post as the star’s response to the prevailing pregnancy rumors that blew up hours prior. Many took to the comment section to weigh in on the issue, urging the rumor mongers and trolls to finally do away with their theories. One commenter wrote,
“Cleared those pregnancy rumors right on up. Now leave Halle alone.”
Another wrote,
“What now… it’s so sad that she had to show her stomach for y’all to see she wasn’t pregnant.”
A third commenter added,
“Yes hunny, shut the rumors down!!!”
Chloe Defends Her Sister Amid Prevailing Body Scrutiny
Despite Halle Bailey’s midriff-baring outfit, several fans remained convinced she concealed her pregnancy. Many pointed out how black outfits could particularly make a person appear slimmer. Others noted that the Grown-ish actress strategically paired her oversized high-waist pants and leather jacket with the crop top to hide evidence of a tummy bulge.
Earlier, Chloe appeared to defend Halle amid the rumors in an Instagram live session. Without specifically mentioning the rumors, she warned fans to keep her sister’s name out of their mouths. With Halle Bailey refraining from directly addressing the pregnancy rumors, though, these speculations just might go unchecked longer than anyone anticipated.
