Ireland Baldwin has announced her pregnancy in a heartwarming New Year's surprise post.
Posting to Instagram on Saturday, the 27-year-old - who is the daughter of Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger - showed her 679,000 followers a snapshot of a sonogram alongside the caption: "Happy New Year," with a red heart.
This will be the star's first child with her boyfriend André Allen Anjos, also known as RAC. The grammy-award-winning musician also shared the post to his Instagram feed, yet again confirming the happy news.
And of course, fans were excited at the prospect of Baldwin becoming a mother.
"Ahhhhhh!!! Congratulations, Ireland!!! Ohhhh!! So sooo excited for you guys!!! Hope you’re feeling ok, and that the pregnancy will be smooth," said one user while another added: "Congratulations!! Such an exciting time. You will be a wonderful mother."
Other celebs also left kind messages under the post.
Sarah Paulson wrote, "Omg!!!!! Congratulations!!!" and Rumer Willis (who is expecting a baby soon too) said: "Yay can't wait to meet you little one."
Others also welcomed her to "the coolest club."
While this seemed to be exciting baby news, some fans diverted the conversation completely, pointing out that the image in the sonogram actually looked like a dog which then led to people questioning the legitimacy of the post.
"Is it just me or does it look like there may be a beagle in there?" One user questioned.
"I legitimately can’t tell if this is real or if it’s a wiener dog," another stated,
"Am I the only one seeing a dog?"
However, these comments were quickly shut down by other fans, with this one user describing the reaction as "embarrassing."
"I can’t believe people are stupid enough to think thats an ultrasound of a dog," they wrote. "Unless they have training in sonography they should probably stay away from trying to read the image, its embarassing for themselves and second hand embarassment for sonographers.
"Congratulations on your pregnancy and I'm sorry that people accused you of fake s***," they added.
And it seems as though Baldwin saw those comments too, because she took to her Instagram Stories to confirm that she was in fact having a baby and not a pup.
"It's not a dog lol," she wrote, posting a picture of a positive Clear Blue pregnancy test.
RAC also took to his Instagram Stories, sharing a snapshot of himself holding up five pictures of an ultrasound that the couple attended months ago.
"First ultrasound a few months ago," he captioned the post.
While it remains unclear when the couple officially got together, they've been sharing cute photos with one another throughout big occasions this year including Valentine's Day and Halloween and this pregnancy news seems to be the cherry on top of the cake for 2022.
Congratulations to the happy couple!
