Lily Cole's surprising pregnancy announcement
The supermodel is expecting her 1st child with boyfriend Kwame Ferreira
Lily Cole has announced that she’s pregnant – in the most surprisingly simple, low-tech way.
No red-carpet bump reveals, big-reveal videos or pregnancy-test selfies for the supermodel; instead, she scribbled the happy news on a yellow Post-It note and posted a picture of it on Instagram.
The handwritten note read, "I am having a baby", and was stuck between a purple plastic dinosaur and a spinning-top toy, making it one of the most retro announcements we've seen in ages.
Choosing her own website Impossible, as well as Instagram, to spread the news, the 27-year-old, who is expecting her first baby with boyfriend Kwame Ferreira, also wrote a short but sweet message to accompany the pic.
"The first known impossible baby is being born! I met Kwame when I was in the process of developing Impossible and he offered the most profound gift, to help build the platform," Lily posted.
"After working together for a long time, Kwame and I fell in love, and I am very happy to share our news that we are expecting our first child together…”
Ahhh, congratulations!
