Maisie Smith has baffled fans with a 'pregnancy' announcement on Instagram. The former EastEnders and Strictly Come Dancing star, 21, is currently on holiday with beau Max George and took to Instagram to share her 'news'. On her Instagram stories, she uploaded a snap in a figure hugging baby pink strappy dress, with an oversized letterman cardigan draped around her arms.
In the photo, she can be seen clutching her stomach, with a large heart emoji covering it. In the snap, The Wanted singer Max, 34, has his hand covering his mouth in fake shock as he stares down at her 'bump'. "We've got some really exciting news...," she wrote.
However, in the next story, the heart disappears to reveal a new caption: "I just had the best 5 course meal of my life," with a love heart emoji. Despite it being a joke, with Maisie known for her tongue in cheek humour, it divided fans. One wrote: "It was hilarious.
Anybody who follows her knew she wasn't, she's posted plenty of pictures drinking." However, another didn't see the funny side, writing: "Doesn't matter, she shouldn't use pregnancy as a joke." This isn't the first time Maisie has joked about having a baby with fans, after Strictly co-star John Whaite posted a photo of the pair, captioned: "So pleased to announce the engagement of Maisie Smith and John Whaite. "They'll marry in a field at some point within the next 9 months." Maisie joined in with the joke, replying: "Make it 10 months so my baby bumps gone," with a red heart emoji. Maisie and Max jetted off on their trip to Dubai and Abu Dhabi shortly after Maisie performed her last shows on the Strictly Ballroom tour, now replaced by former Coronation Street and Dancing on Ice star Faye Brookes.
