    As the tour continued, Hathaway appeared in flowing Valentino Haute Couture gowns, oversized sweaters, wide-leg trousers, and voluminous dresses that concealed her midsection.

    “Her outfits were carefully selected to sort of cover the belly area. Props to the stylist,” one person wrote.

    Another commented, “Smart PR timing and careful styling. Hollywood pros know how to keep things private even under a microscope.”

    While Hathaway successfully kept the news private, some viewers now claim the clues were there all along.

    At the Louis Vuitton Cruise 2027 show in late May, Hathaway wore a loose gray dress with puffy sleeves and an ankle-length silhouette.

    Several photos appeared to show a slight bump, though few people paid attention at the time.

    “Where was this belly a few days ago during The Devil Wears Prada press tour?” one surprised fan asked after seeing the announcement.

    Others pointed out that every pregnancy looks different.

    “Styling can do a lot, and every pregnancy looks different. Some women look pregnant early, some don’t show until they’re nearly full term,” one commenter noted.

    Fans also revisited moments from the Devil Wears Prada 2 promotional tour featuring Hathaway alongside co-stars Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt.

    “Unfortunately, revisiting their press tour knowing Emily knew she was pregnant is doing unspeakable things to my brain,” one fan joked.

    Another added, “Now we know why Meryl refused to let go of Anne’s hand. She was making sure that Anne was safe and near her.”

    The pregnancy reveal came at an especially busy moment in Hathaway’s career.

    In addition to the recent release of The Devil Wears Prada 2, she has recently been involved with several major film projects, including Mother Mary, The Odyssey, The End of Oak Street, and Verity.

    Despite the demanding schedule, Hathaway has repeatedly expressed gratitude for her work.

    During the 2026 Met Gala, she reflected on balancing a packed career.

    “I mean, who’s luckier than us?” she said. “When you get a little bit tired, I’m like, ‘Do you like the reason that you’re tired?’”

    One fan summed up the reaction many people had after the pregnancy announcement.

    “All those movies she has recently done and pregnant??? A winner in life, in my opinion.”

    When announcing her second pregnancy in 2019, Hathaway acknowledged her fertility struggles and offered support to others experiencing similar difficulties.

    “For everyone going through infertility and conception hell, please know it was not a straight line to either of my pregnancies,” she wrote at the time.

    She later described the process as “painful” and “isolating,” explaining that many women silently struggle while trying to conceive.

    In 2024, Hathaway also revealed that she experienced a miscarriage in 2015.

    Those experiences have made her especially thoughtful when discussing pregnancy and motherhood publicly.
