The star confirmed her pregnancy on her Instagram account in January, when she noticed that she was being photographed by paparazzi while on the beach. Posting a picture of her cradling her bump, she captioned the image: "So, posting a bikini pic is a little out of character for me, but just now while I was at the beach I noticed I was being photographed. I figure if this kind of photo is going to be out in the world it should at least be an image that makes me happy (and be one that was taken with my consent). And with a filter :)"

Hathaway made her last public appearance, before giving birth, at the Oscars in February where she wore an embellished black Naeem Khan gown. She has previously been vocal about her desire to have children, telling American Vogue in 2013, "The kind of mother I'll be depends on the kind of children I have. I can't wait to meet them."
