Anne Hathaway is addressing online speculation her pregnant belly is fake after the actress walked a recent red carpet in a stomach-baring crop top.
βFake hair, real bump π βοΈπ¦π₯βοΈπ¦π ,β the pregnant actress, 43, wrote via Instagram alongside a video of herself getting ready for and attending the premiere of her new movie The End of Oak Street in California on Sunday, August 9. βEnjoy The @endofoakstreet Block Party chaos with me as my outfit literally melts in the heat!!β
Hathaway showed off her baby bump in a powder-blue high-neck crop top with a long train. She paired the elegant shirt with baggy jeans and red heels to match the topβs interior.
As photos of Hathawayβs look circulated via social media, some users claimed her belly looked like a prosthetic.
βNothing screams real pregnancy like a bump so perfectly round and photo ready it looks straight off the Amazon βsilicone baby bumpΒ 6 8 monthsβ listing. Hollywoodβs props department really outdid themselves this time,β one person wrote via X.
Others jumped to Hathawayβs defense.
βPregnancy bumps arenβt supposed to look identical, she looks amazing, so I really donβt understand why everyone is making such a big deal out of it,β another user wrote.
Hathaway announced in June that sheβs expecting her third baby with husband Adam Shulman. (Hathaway and Shulman, 45, are already parents to sons Jonathan, 10, and Jack, 6.)
βx Baby Iβm yours,β the Devil Wears Prada star wrote via Instagram alongside a video of herself walking into the frame and cradling her baby bump.
βWe knew what we were doing, but β¦ we were so shocked it went this way,β she said on Late Night With Seth Meyers in July, adding that she and Shulman were βcalling this one our buzzer-beater,β referring to a basketball shot that succeeds right before the final buzzer.
Hathawayβs maternity style previously made headlines last month when she wore a red jumpsuit backwards. The Oscar winner reacted to the mistake via social media.
βI did?β she asked after sharing reports from multiple outlets about the wardrobe malfunction. Hathaway then shrugged and tucked her hair behind her ear. βI did,β she whispered while cringing.
Hathaway has been candid about her motherhood journey over the years. Back in 2024, she opened up about suffering a miscarriage 10 years prior.
βThe first time it didnβt work out for me,β she told Vanity Fair. βSo when it did go well for me, having been on the other side of it β where you have to have the grace to be happy for someone β I wanted to let my sisters know, βYou donβt have to always be graceful. I see you and Iβve been you.ββ
