Hours before announcing the birth of her second child, Molly-Mae Hague appeared to tease the way she might reveal their name.
The influencer broke the exciting news on Instagram last night (3 June), sharing a sweet black-and-white photo alongside fiancé Tommy Fury and their three-year-old daughter, Bambi. The trio are seen sitting on a hospital bed, looking adoringly at their family's new addition.
Fans were quickly convinced that the former Love Island couple opted for a monochrome social media announcement so as to keep the gender of the little one a secret until they're ready.
The reality TV pair also kept the name they'd chosen for their baby a secret - despite Molly-Mae, 27, admitting on her latest vlog that many of her loved ones are already struggling to pronounce the child's moniker.

"I think people are going to be a bit disappointed," she joked. "Upon reflection, I don’t actually think it’s that crazy, but I know people are going to pronounce it wrong.
"Because when I’ve mentioned the name to a few people, or I’ve spelt it out, a few of my friends have said it completely wrong - absolutely not how you pronounce it. Also, I think, if you know this word, or you know the name, you would just pronounce it as it is. For me, I see it exactly as it is."
In the same YouTube vlog, Molly-Mae continued: "I've been designing Tommy's shorts for his fight, and I'm thinking about potentially putting I don't know if we're going like I don't cuz I don't know what the timeline's going to be.
"I'm thinking, do I put the name of baby number two on his fight shorts? Because he always has Bambi's name on his fight shorts, and I don't want to like leave the second baby off. But also maybe that's how we announce the name is on his fight shorts.
"That would actually be quite cool. Fight on the 13th [of June] with Eddie Hall. So we've got a lot to look forward to, guys."
She went on to add: "There's a lot coming up in the next few weeks."
Indeed, Tommy is set to go head-to-head against the former winner of The World's Strongest Man, Eddie Hall, 38, in a Misfits fight on 13 June at Manchester's AO Arena.
Fans have also shared a series of wild baby name conspiracy theories online, including one TikTok user, @lysha_lou, who reckons Molly-Mae has been inspired by a cartoon character once again.
Zooming in closely on the blanket wrapped around the infant, she explained: "This looks like a little Tigger blanket, I feel like he or she might be called Tigger - well, it's going to be a he if she's called it Tigger."
Another user took to the comments, however, to share a colourised image of the same blanket worn by the baby, showing it's actually nursery rhyme themed, and that 'Tigger' is actually a teddy bear.
"This is blanket. I recognise it from my friend. So it’s not tigger or a tiger," they wrote.
Others are convinced Bambi's choice of top in the photo might have given away her sibling's name, being that she's seen sporting an oversized t-shirt bearing a rabbit that looked a lot like the much-loved book character, Miffy.
"I’m going for MIFFY ! .. girl xx" one user commented, while another agreed: "Miffy Fury."
A third wrote: "I think girl. Bambi is wearing a Miffy tshirt?? is that a clue? Miffy fury."
"I think Miffy (going by bambis top)," a fourth went on.
