If you can't imagine why anyone would wait as long as possible to announce a pregnancy then you are probably lucky enough to have sailed through. Others are not so lucky.

I waited because I couldn't believe it would ever work out after years of trying, 4 rounds of IVF and continuous bleeding for three weeks in the first trimester. A friend waited until she was 16 weeks with twins and very big because she was waiting for the results of an amnio. Not everyone wants to shout it from the rooftops as soon as possible.

Former bad karaoke artist, used to be married to a half-decent footballer. Do we care?

That is true so she should keep her uterus out of the papers to stop the annoying "pregnancy" rumours

How exactly does one walk around and live without a torso?

JenLindleyShitMom · 29/10/2016 09:26

Hmm

How exactly can she keep her uterus out of the papers? She can't leave it at home. She is entitled to work and her work involves public appearances. Why the fuck should she hide her stomach just so you don't have to be "annoyed" by rumours about her? What an odd fucking 'logic'.

ForAllTheSaints, you obviously care enough to comment.

The nastiness jealousy shown towards Cheryl is quite sad.

WhereTheFuckIsMyFuckingCoat · 29/10/2016 10:14

Also, totally agree, Jen - everyone has the right to go about their daily business whether that be in the limelight or not without attracting venom because they refuse to confirm the current state of their gynaecological status. Hmm

Strongmummy · 29/10/2016 10:57

Why do you care?

ALemonyPea · 29/10/2016 11:04

How is she too young? She is 33 years old.

Her local charity sold an overly sweet chocolate bar in Greggs, don't get more Geordie than that Grin

She looks so much better with a bit weight on her. She was incredibly thin last year through stress.

alphabook · 29/10/2016 11:04

Because it's no one else's business. I'm 22 weeks and haven't made a pregnancy announcement. It's not a secret, I just don't feel the need. The people who matter know. Why is it any different with celebrities? Why do the media/the public feel they have a right to be told?

jesus, she's been snapped by the paps, going about her business in her casuals.

Why are people being so fucking bitchy about her face, skin colour and hair?

She doesn't have to announce anything, its her business and no-one elses, especially when she's just walking around in trakkies and mules and minding her own fucking business.

I don't read tabloids or celeb magazines. I didn't know that she was with Liam from 1D. I thought he was gay tbh.

Good luck to 'em, anyway. They've no obligation to keep the press and the public up-to-date.

TisMeTheLadFromTheBar · 29/10/2016 13:15

It might be her Halloween costume

Twogoats · 29/10/2016 13:27

To the poster who asked: Cheryl's sister (Gillian) dosent look much like her at all. They're half-sisters (same mum).

IfartInYourGeneralDirection · 29/10/2016 13:31

Remember when she punched a toilet attendant and racially abused her?

Argh, I cringe when she's described as British icon or whatever.

daisychain01 · 29/10/2016 13:36

Why can't everyone wait for 7 or 8 months and see what happens. She's either pregnant or she isn't. Time will tell.

She could have stuffed a pillow up there for all it matters in the grand scheme of life.

PatMullins · 29/10/2016 13:48

Me too Ifart

NerrSnerr · 29/10/2016 13:52

Why does is matter? She's pregnant or she's not. That makes no difference to any of our lives. I have a small baby bump at the moment and I haven't announced to many people and won't be until I have the 20 week scan. Is that ok with you OP or should I be arranging a press conference?

BillSykesDog · 29/10/2016 14:43

I suspect she's doing a Beyoncé and using a surrogate.

2kids2dogsnosense · 29/10/2016 15:28

Thanks Twogoats

Life is hard when you're as nosey interested in one's fellow man as much as I am Grin

toastytoastbear · 29/10/2016 16:14

I don't see a bump

and I'm ashamed of myself for adding to this thread 😁
