On February 29, Ranveer and Deepika shared a post on Instagram, announcing the happy news. The simple post, featuring cute baby items, revealed that the couple will welcome their first child in September this year.Deepika is currently in her second trimester. As soon as the announcement was made, the social media post was flooded with love from fans and celebrities. Vikram Massey commented, “OMGGGGGGG!!!! Bahut bahut shubhkamnaen aap dono ko!!!” while Kriti Sanon wrote, “Omg!!!! Congratulations you two!!!”
Speculations about Deepika’s pregnancy gathered steam when the actress made a dazzling appearance at the 77th BAFTA red carpet. The actress looked every inch stunning in a glittering gold saree and expertly hid her baby bump. Interestingly, earlier this year, Deepika had shared her thoughts on motherhood and told Vogue Singapore, “Absolutely. Ranveer and I love children. We look forward to the day when we will start our own family.”
Speaking about her upbringing, the actress had added, “When I meet the people I have grown up with—my aunts, uncles, family friends—they always mention how I haven’t changed one bit. That says a lot about our upbringing. In this industry, it’s easy to get carried away by fame and money. But no one treats me like a celebrity at home. I am a daughter and a sister first. I don’t want that to change. My family keeps me grounded and Ranveer and I hope to inculcate the same values in our children.”
