Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham Baby News: Supermodel and Actor Reveal They're Expecting Their First Child
International supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has just revealed that she and fiancé Jason Statham are expecting their first child.
On Friday, Huntington-Whiteley shared her hot bikini photo by the beach that showed her lovely baby bump through her official Instagram page. The photo, which has been "liked" by more than 684,000 fans and followers, bears the caption, "Very happy to share that Jason and I are expecting!" According to the "Mad Max: Fury Road" actress, the photo was taken by no less than her beau.
Apparently, many fans were surprised by the announcement as it was the first time that the British supermodel talked about her pregnancy. And by the looks of it, she waited several months before telling the world that she and her famous actor fiancé are going to have their own family soon.
Huntington-Whiteley's Instagram post is now filled with mixed reactions from fans expressing their shock, congratulations and heart-eyed emojis. But the couple are generally getting nothing but love from their fans as one follower said: "Pregnant @rosiehw more beautiful than ever! Congratulations! What a wonderful blessing!"
Another follower posted: "Omg, omg, I knew it!!!!!! So happy for you, dearest Rosie!"
Reports are now recounting that Huntington-Whiteley had previously expressed her plans of having her own family in a 2015 interview with The Edit (via Mirror), saying: "Having a family is something I think about for sure, and whether I'd live here in America or in England. But it's not always as simple as that."
She adds: "I have no idea what will happen, but it'll be interesting to find out, right? And nothing will be perfect, I'm sure."
In January 2016, the couple confirmed their engagement after Huntington-Whiteley was spotted wearing her ring at the 73rd Golden Globe Awards. At that time, the two have been together for five years.
Talking to Harper's Bazaar Australia in 2016 (via Daily Mail), the supermodel called Statham "by far the greatest influence" in her life. In the same interview, she expressed that she is having "an amazing relationship" with "The Transporter" actor. However, she remained quiet about their wedding plans.
