Shakira Baby Coming Soon; Singer Pregnant with Gerard Pique’s Child

Wednesday, New York Daily News reported the news of another celebrity pregnancy. While speculation has been looming for months, the couple shared the official news yesterday.

“As some of you may know, Gerard and I are very happy awaiting the arrival of our first baby!” the singer wrote.

Shakira and Gerard Pique began dating in March of last year, a mere two months after the singer and her longtime boyfriend, Antonio de la Rua, split.

While she and her soccer beau denied the dating rumors, it was obvious things were heating up; they were snapped regularly together while out and about.

Newly-pregnant Shakira and Gerard are said to have nicknamed their unborn child, Ulicito. Imagine that?

Shakira baby bump-watchers may be in for a big surprise; rumor is the child is due any day now. Obviously, the singer and her boyfriend have done a great job keeping things under “wraps.”

Hard-core fans who have been captivated by the singer’s gyrating hip-moves over the years, are likely wondering how pregnancy will affect her genie-in-a-bottle-svelte-figure.

However, celebrities have a way of dropping the baby-fat and getting back to their pre-pregnancy weight.

Victoria’s Secret model, Miranda Kerr, who gave birth in 2011, snapped back to cat-walk form in just a short time.Jessica Simpson gave birth just months ago and has already slimmed down, thanks to Weight Watchers.

Shakira baby news is likely a sign she and Gerard Pique may soon tie the knot. It sounds like the next logical step. They appear very happy together and she is his biggest cheerleader throughout Barcelona during soccer matches.

With Shakira pregnant, she is probably going to cut back on the hip-shaking routine; pom-poms will do the trick for now.
