Fans ‘work out’ gender of Hailey Bieber's baby after she drops ‘subtle hints’ following pregnancy announcement

Hailey Bieber announced her pregnancy earlier this month, and fans have been swooning ever since, with some believing they've guessed the baby's gender.

The 27-year-old model and Rhode founder is expecting a baby with husband, 'Baby' hitmaker Justin Bieber, 30.

The pair tied the knot at a courthouse in lower Manhattan in September 2018. They then followed up their humble nuptials with a much more illustrious ceremony at the Montage Palmetto Bluff hotel in South Carolina.

The pregnancy announcement was made via Instagram, and featured a short video of Justin and Hailey kissing, as well as a series of photos of the soon-to-be parents cradling Hailey's bump.

Hailey was dressed in white lace, and Justin wore a bomber jacket with a cap.

The caption was left blank, but many famous faces piled on the well wishes in the comments.

Kendall Jenner wrote: "ahhhh here come the tears again," while sister Kylie wrote: "i love you guys!!!! ahhhhhhhh."

Kali Uchis said: "CONGRATULATIONS to you both !!! Wishing you a safe delivery & so much joy in your home."

And Vanessa Hudgens added: "Cutiesssss. Congratulations babe."

Well, the stars have finally aligned for the pair, and there is a Bieber baby on the way!

And already, eagle-eyed fans think they've worked out the gender of the imminent arrival.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, @pradaparisian declared: "It's going to be girl!" followed by a pink bow emoji.

The user attached screenshots of Hailey in a pink crop top cradling her bump, as well as her new 'tiny baby tat' of a bow.

There was also a comment from Hailey's company, Rhode, featuring a pink bow, as well as a comment from Rhode company president, Lauren Ratner, which featured five pink bows.

One person commented: "I told y’all it would be a girl. Her tummy’s shape gives it away!!"

Another said: "Omg, Justin is going to be a girl dad."

And a third theorised: "idk I feel like they’re playing us and it’s gonna be a boy."

We're just going to have to wait and see.

The announcement followed Justin commenting on his wish to have children with Hailey back in 2020.

He said to Ellen Degeneres: "I'm going to have as many as Hailey is wishing to push out. I'd love to have myself a little tribe, but it's her body and whatever she wants to do.

"There's not really an issue, but I think Hailey still has some things she wants to accomplish as a woman.

"And I think she just is not ready yet, and I think that's OK."
