so I just saw the Saturday's latest video for 'Disco Love'

Frankie is pregnant...

wtf is this something to be hidden away?! They employ numerous tricks to hide the baby bump, a totally natural thing.

she is sitting in a van while all her friends have fun outside,

her friends are all rollerskating and she is tucked safely behind the crash barrier so no one can see her stomach gasp

God forbid she even be standing at the bar with a soft drink or something.

at the end of the video all them are sitting on a sofa with men behind them, perched on the back of the sofa.

that is right, excapt Frankie, who had a random man Sat in front of her blocking her pregnancy and bump from view.

I found it so infuriating! God forbid a woman be pregnant Hmm Confused

Maybe the character she is playing in the video isn't pregnant? I'm not familiar with the lyrics, but I don't think all their songs are autobiographical.

Is it different to when someone isn't pregnant, but wears a baby bump to pretend they are for a video/tv/film role?

Some people do hide their pregnancy for a number of reasons. Just because someone in the public eye does it, it becomes a big deal.

I dont get the big deal.
