These 13 Female Celebrities Beautifully Showed Off Their Baby Bump In Photoshoots, Performances, and Video Shoots.
Being a celebrity is never easy, I mean, yes it does come with loads of money and gift and comfortable life, however, there are certain things that any celebrity would die to do alone and in the comfort of their friends. Just think if millions of people would have a verdict on you just because you dated a certain person or wore a certain piece of cloth to an event. Disaster and invasion of personal space are something that celebrities have to combat all throughout their lives.
However, female celebrities have to see the worst kind of this invasion. They’re judged for basically anything and everything. From the extra roll on their stomach to the cellulite on their legs, there’s nothing that is spared about a female celebrity’s body once it gets out in public. There are many who have gone on to shame pregnant women for looking, well pregnant. Who can forget huge criticism that Kim Kardashian West received when she was pregnant and was wearing a certain kind of heels that made her foot look swelled up. I mean come on people, give them a moment to breathe.
With time, things have somehow eased and all thanks should be given to strong new-age female celebrities who have started normalising themselves. Very often than not we come across stories where we get to know that our favourite female celebrities are just like us.
A strong move in that direction came when female celebrities started showing off their baby bumps to the world, because why not? It’s nature’s gift and is beautiful in every fricking way. Here’s a list of 13 Female Celebrities who showed off their baby bumps in all its glory to the world, through various mediums and each one is beautiful in its own way.
