Brooklyn Beckham’s fiancé Nicola Peltz sparks pregnancy rumours with ‘bump’ snap – but all is not as it seems
BROOKLYN Beckham's fiancé Nicola Peltz sparked pregnancy rumours yesterday after sharing pictures of her 'bump'.

The 26-year-old Transformers star cradled her fake bump as it poked out from underneath her crop top.
Fans and friends were nearly fooled, with Vas J Morgan writing: "Omg for a split second there I thought u we’re announcing a pregnancy."
A fan commented: "I thought it was real for a sec."
While another said: "OMG you're pregnant? Or is this a still from some set like last time lol"
For those that scrolled through the pics before commenting, it quickly became apparent the bump was part of her latest project.
The behind-the-scenes snaps show the hair and makeup team and cameramen hard at work on the production.
