- Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik are expecting their first child together (opens in new tab).
- Fans think there's evidence that Gigi's birthday party was actually a gender reveal party.
Yesterday, news broke that Gigi Hadid and her on-again off-again boyfriend Zayn Malik are expecting their first child together (opens in new tab), which, yay! This exciting life update dropped just a few days after Gigi's birthday, which she celebrated in quarantine with her family—including Bella Hadid and Zayn. But here's the thing: sleuth-y fans re-visited her birthday pics and think there's evidence that the celebration was also a casual gender reveal party.
Here are the photos:

Notice how the balloons have a pink and blue string, respectively?
Bro WE’RE SO DUMB. The blue and pink strings- . It was a gender reveal party as well?? Also I think that it’s a boy since Gigi is holding the balloon with blue strings. pic.twitter.com/gN5GiOLRiQApril 29, 2020
SO I SAW THIS ON TIKTOK AND THIS GIRL’S MIND:SUPERIORshe said that maybe they had a gender reveal party on gigi’s bday party bc if you see the ballon THERE IS BLUE AND PINKAND THEN IN HER PICTURE WITH ZAYN SHE IS WITH JUST ONE BALLOON AND IT IS BLUE so is it a boy orr im a 🤡 pic.twitter.com/KJSHVa2953April 29, 2020
HOW DID NO ONE NOTICE THE BLUE AND PINK STRINGS ON THE BALLOONS? IT COULD’VE BEEN A GENDER REVEAL AS WELL. MAYBE THEY KNOW THE GENDER BC YOU CAN TELL AROUND 16-20 WEEKS. GIGI IS ~20 WEEKS. NOW THIS HUG JUST FEELS SO MUCH CUTER. I AM SO SOFT!!!!! pic.twitter.com/DRH5qeUKKjApril 29, 2020
On top of that, Bella Hadid covered the text on this gift bag in her Instagram Stories of the party, and naturally fans found the bag and it says "hello little one."
If you're surprised by Gigi's pregnancy: Apparently it's been her and Zayn's plan all along to start a family. An Us Weekly (opens in new tab) source says, "She’s always wanted to start a family with Zayn" and they're both "so in love."
Meanwhile, an Entertainment Tonight (opens in new tab) source says "Once Gigi and Zayn got back together at the end of last year it was like they never skipped a beat and knew what they had was special. The couple and their families are overjoyed."
