After weeks of rumours – and grainy paparazzi photos in the British tabloids – Suki Waterhouse has finally confirmed that she is pregnant with her first child with Robert Pattinson. However, rather than opting for an Instagram post or press statement to reveal the news, she decided to do it on stage, during her performance at Mexico City’s Corona Capital Festival.
“I’m wearing something sparkly today because I thought it might distract you from something else that’s going on,” she told the crowd while opening a feather-trimmed coat to reveal her baby bump under in a glittery pink dress. “I’m not sure if it’s working.”
A video of her joyful remarks quickly went viral on TikTok after a concertgoer posted the clip. A fan account then reposted it on X, the site formerly known as Twitter, where it racked up hundreds of thousands of views.
A source also told Entertainment Tonight that the couple is expecting. “Suki Waterhouse and Rob Pattinson are expecting their first child together. She is so happy, excited, and appreciative of this experience. Suki and Rob are adorable together,” they told the outlet.
In mid-October, the Daisy Jones and The Six actor offered a glimpse of her changing figure at the GO Gala in Los Angeles.
Waterhouse and Pattinson were first linked in 2018, and have only made a handful of public appearances together since, including at the 2023 Met Gala. In February 2023, she spoke glowingly of their relationship to The Sunday Times. “I’m shocked that I’m so happy with someone for nearly five years,” she said. “We’ve always got so much to say, and I find him hilarious.”
