Jaime King, the star of ‘Hart of Dixie’, rocked a bikini and her baby bump in July. She shared a picture on her Instagram handle and captioned it, “Backyard Summer with baby and father.” She was referring to her husband, filmmaker Kyle Newman.
After she announced her pregnancy in May this year, the first timer(!) has kept her fans informed via her Twitter handle, where she once posted the joke, “Our baby has the best name: The Untitled Newman-King Project!”
In an interview, Jamie King spoke of her pregnancy and said, “Pregnancy is the ultimate symbol of womanhood, beauty, and sensuality, so make it a celebration of creating life. You don’t have to hide anything or try to suck in your belly. Why not put on things that are tighter, flashier, or more fun?”
I am sure she was referring to the bikini! 😉
2. Jessica Simpson

When singer-turned-entrepreneur Jessica Simpson was expecting her son, Ace, she tweeted a ballsy portrait of herself on Twitter and captioned it, “Bumpin’ and Proud.” This was in December 2012. This portrait was a rather revealing shot in which the blonde bombshell was bare-faced and showing off her baby bump, plus her cleavage! The patterned bikini made the ‘Fashion Star’ social media’s baby!
While she was vacationing in Hawaii on Christmas day, Simpson finally confirmed that she and her fiancé, Eric Johnson, were pregnant with their second baby. She then tweeted another picture of herself with her daughter, Maxwell (8 months at that time), at the beach with the words, “Big Sis” carved in the sand!

Model mama, Alessandra Ambrosio, relied on Twitter to post some pics of her bumping belly on the beach where she celebrated her baby shower. This was just weeks before she welcomed kid number 2! The caption read, “So much fun at my little boy baby shower. Now just have to wait for him to arrive!!!” Alessandra rejoiced with family and friends while sporting her baby bump in Florianopolis, Brazil.
The secret to that body? We have it from the horse’s mouth:
“I’ve been very active. I’ve been exercising. I’ve been going for walks and doing yoga. Playing with my daughter all the time gets me in good shape I guess.”
5. Jessica Alba

While Jessica Alba was pregnant with her baby girl, Haven, she showed off her blossoming baby bump in a teeny weeny bikini while vacationing in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. This was in May 2011, when she was expecting her second child with her husband Cash Warren. At the vacation, her 3-year-old daughter, Honor, was seen following the Valentine’s Day star everywhere.
According to Alba’s personal trainer, Ramona Braganza, she remained fit throughout her pregnancy by following three simple rules:
- She revised her usual training routine
- She indulged rationally
- She worked more on her core strength and sense of balance.

Although the Transformers actress Megan Fox and her (now separated) hubby, Brian Austin Green, maintained their silence on the pregnancy rumors, the brunette babe unveiled her mushrooming baby bump in some beachwear. The couple was in Hawaii for a romantic getaway!
The photos were as adorable as could be, with heaps of PDA! Brian was seen cuddling his lady’s bare bump as they stood on their private terrace and watched the serene view. They tied the knot during this vacation to celebrate their second anniversary.
Megan Fox has always shown off her stunning body with grace and we were glad that she made no exception during her pregnancy. Graceful is the word!
9. Alicia Keys

The Grammy Award-winning singer Alicia Keys, said “yes” to Swizz Beatz on the French Island of Corsica. They were then photographed honeymooning in St. Jean Cap Ferrat, France. She stood on the deck of the luxurious yacht and showed off her bump!
According to Harley Pasternak, Alicia Keys’ trainer, “Regular exercise is especially key during pregnancy. It helps with so many things: your mood, heart rate, and blood glucose levels, as well as having some sense of control over your body, which is easy to lose when you’re expecting and feel as if the baby is taking over.”
And it of course helps these stars rock their baby bumps in bikinis!!
10. Kendra Wilkinson

In her third trimester, Gisele Bundchen rocked her animal print two-piece bikini in Miami Beach, Florida. She looked simply radiant in this leopard skin print bikini. She was also sporting a straw hat and a pair of aviator shades. This Brazilian beauty was skinny-dipping with a friend at the beach when the shutterbugs caught her.
For all expecting mommies, going on a vacation can be a panic alert. And if the location picked by hubby dearest turns out to be the beach, she is most likely to back out! Wearing a two-piece swimsuit is out of the question, even if we had to wear it to a ‘make-believe’ beach party in our backyard!
But these pregnant stars seem to feel otherwise. They not only ‘exhibited’ their celebrity baby bumps in sexy swimsuits, but also nailed the look! So next time you are ‘bumped,’ rock it with a bikini!
