Celebs who were rumoured to be pregnant

Actress Kareena Kapoor Khan is rumoured to be pregnant. The rumours strengthened further when the gorgeous actress and husband, Saif Ali Khan took off to the UK for a vacation. She was also allegedly trying to hide her baby bump at a recent event. While dad Randhir Kapoor responded to the rumours by saying that it was "high time" they had a baby, the Nawab and his Begum chose not to address the rumours, that is until recently. In an interview, when asked about her pregnancy, Kareena responded by saying that, "God willing hopefully. I am a woman. But right now there is nothing to say about it." She further jokingly added, "The fact that you all are talking about it is making me super excited. I have five hidden children in London!"

I have put on a lot of weight because of my back problem due to which I have also not been exercising."

Some years back the paparazzi clicked an apparently plump picture of Kareena Kapoor while she was making an exit from the airport and news channels went haywire with speculations on whether Bebo was pregnant. While allegedly Kareena Kapoor was much amused with the news, she chose to maintain a stoic silence over it. Sources close to the actress confirmed that there was no truth to these speculations and perhaps the pictures were clicked from an improper angle. What added fuel to the speculations was that Kareena was covering her belly with a shawl giving gossip mongers an excuse to say that she was making an attempt to hide her baby bump. In an interview to DNA, referring to it as a sensitive topic, Kareena maintains that she has no interest in being a mother in the near future. She says that Saif and she already have two children (Saif's children from his previous marriage) and hence they are not in any hurry to have children.
