Waterhouse first appeared to confirm her pregnancy on stage at a festival in Mexico last November.

She told concertgoers she had specifically chosen to wear something sparkly to "distract" from "something else" - insinuating her growing baby bump.

She later posted a series of photographs from her performance, including a picture where her baby bump was visible.
