In today’s episode of “Celebrities Keep Us Guessing,” Julia Fox, the 34-year-old model, author, and apparently, belly magician, had the internet in a frenzy. Why, you ask? Well, Julia accidentally caused a mini-panic on Instagram when she posted a video showing off what appeared to be a baby bump. And not just any bumpβthis one was front and center, displayed proudly in a white tank top and boxer shorts like she was about to drop the hottest maternity fashion line of the year. Naturally, she captioned the post: βOops.β
Cue the wild speculation. βIs Julia Fox pregnant?! Whoβs the father?! Is she single?! Wait, should I text her?β The people wanted answers, and they wanted them NOW.
But before the rumor mill could start cranking out theories involving aliens, immaculate conceptions, or weird celebrity rituals, Julia hopped back on her Instagram Story to drop the real bombshell. In big bold letters, she wrote:
βOmg itβs for a movie!! THE BELLY IS NOT REAL!!!β
You could almost hear a collective sigh of reliefβmainly from fans and probably her dry cleaner. Unfortunately for us, she didnβt spill the tea on which movie it was. (Cβmon, Julia, donβt leave us hanging!) But donβt worry, sheβs got a whole lineup of films coming, so if you like guessing games, youβre in luck. One of these movies is Perfect, an LGBTQ+ romantic drama where Julia plays a wealthy, pregnant woman living out her “escapist fantasy” by falling in love with a younger woman. Now thatβs a storyline worthy of a bump!
In case you forgot, Julia is already a mom to her adorable 3-year-old son, Valentino, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Peter Artemiev. So, while she’s currently momming it up IRL, that latest belly bump? Pure Hollywood magic!
(Though, letβs be realβshe totally rocked it.)
