Halle Bailey made sure to hide her front profile amid pregnancy speculations as she posed for racy Instagram snaps in a blue bikini on Sunday.
The Little Mermaid star, 23, posed for pictures in the crystal clear water of her toned bottom and slender back, rather than her midsection.
Fans concluded she is expecting her first child with rapper beau DDG after she was seen in an oversized sweatshirt appearing to hide her stomach.
The actress has continued to fuel speculation as she even covered a glimpse of her torso with her arm in the snaps.
Halle let her braided brunette locks fall loosely behind her and accessorised her beachwear with gorgeous gold earrings and a body chain.

The beauty simply captioned her post: ‘Dreaming wide awake’.
Halle appeared to confirm she is going to be a mother and is married in her new cover story for Glamour UK.
The publication, which just released its Women Of The Year issue, attributed a line in the story about being a ‘mum’ and ‘marriage’ to Bailey.
She was quoted saying, ‘Being a mum, being newly married — there’s the positive side of it, but also the negative. I want to show that although things might look perfect from the exterior, that’s not always the case.’
But the quote was actually from the outlet’s interview with Leigh-Anne Pinnock of the music group Little Mix.
Glamour UK has yet to get back to DailyMail.com about the confusion.
About the misleading quote, one fan on X (formerly Twitter) pointed out that as an American, it’s unlikely that Halle would refer to herself as a ‘mum’ versus ‘mom.’
And in the accompanying essay, there is no mention of the subjects of parenthood or romance.

That makes it even more likely that the quote was misplaced.
The silver screen siren and her boyfriend have seen heightened pregnancy rumors since they were spotted together in Santa Monica last weekend, with Halle donning a bulky, oversized grey hoodie.
Making the appearance even more curious, Bailey had one sleeve rolled up, revealing a cotton ball taped to the crook of her arm.
Fans took that to mean she either had blood drawn or received an injection.
Despite the incessant chatter about her pregnancy status, Halle and her partner have remained tight-lipped.
