Naomi Osaka Might Have Unknowingly Revealed THIS About Her Unborn Child

Naomi Osaka is still very much pregnant, and fans seem to have a clue about her unborn baby's gender months ahead of her scheduled delivery date.

The iconic athlete, who announced her pregnancy earlier this year, was said to have unknowingly dropped a hint about her child's gender in one of her latest social media posts.

Osaka is living life to the fullest amid her pregnancy and could not help but update fans with snippets of her glowing appearance as she counts down to welcoming her baby.

She went on Instagram with a carousel highlighting her natural look and all she has recently been up to. In the first slide, the Australian Open star was captured with no makeup on but partly covering her face with a product from her skincare brand Kinlò.

In the next slide, a male could be seen with her mutt on a beach, while the third showed a pair of five kid-sized Nike footwear stacked on shoe boxes that appeared to be designed for a boy. Osaka then snapped a vacant road in the fourth slide, with the clear blue sky and surrounding greenery illuminating the snap.  

In the final slide, she held the same Kinlò product from the first photo and photographed it against her radiant leg. "It's starting to feel a lot like summer," the US Open champ captioned her post, adding a sun emoji before her followers reacted with remarks about her third slide hinting at her baby's gender.

A fan exclaimed, "IT'S A BOY!" adding three blue heart emojis while another wondered aloud if Osaka was expecting a boy.

A third admirer noted, "The baby shoes are adorbs," and another gushed, "OMG!!! I knew it was a boy!" Similarly, one more commenter wrote, "Oh, it's a baby boy," before another proclaimed, "A boy!" And at the same time, a follower expressed, "So it's a BOY."

An eighth supporter was awed by the "little kicks" shared in the third slide, whereas a ninth fan echoed many of the commenters' words saying, "Baby boy coming soon."

Another fan asked if the expectant mother knew she would be pregnant with a boy. As fans shared their opinions about her unborn child's gender, they may recall Osaka opening up about her pregnancy journey in a candid chat.

The pro athlete, who has taken a break from tennis since getting pregnant, first spoke about her partner Cordae not knowing their child's gender. She revealed that while he remained clueless, she had been prepping and was the only one that knew if she would have a boy or girl, meaning she could not work on the nursery yet.

"So I don't know," the four-time Grand Slam singles champion continued. "[I'm] just winging it. That's the key motto in my life a little."

She also touched on her partnership with Victoria's Secret, which helped ease her pregnancy as she chose to wear the comfortable loose button-downs from the collab "almost every day."

Osaka further elaborated on the perks of the outfits for pregnant women before concluding with what she anticipated most about motherhood.

"I think what I'm looking forward to most is the challenges and just learning," she explained. "I think there's going to be a lot of things that I don't know, but I have a lot of really amazing people close to me that I can ask questions about. Just a new adventure." 

More than a month after announcing her pregnancy, The Blast reported that Osaka shared her first set of baby bump photos on Instagram. The fantastic pictures, captioned with an emoji of Japan's flag, began with a view of the activist posing sideways on a busy street in Japan.

A similar slide showed her with tall buildings in the background, and she looked terrific in baggy pants and a cropped jersey top, revealing her enlarged belly.

The Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year honoree accessorized with large hoop earrings, a baseball cap, and beige sneakers. 

Fans were delighted to finally see her pregnant self as they sent compliments in the comments section; one read, "Glowing mama," and another: "Mama in Japan – better not delete this!!!!!!!!!!"
