Vanessa Kirby's Chic Baby Bump: Co-Starring with Julia Garner at Fantastic Four Photocall

Vanessa Kirby and Julia Garner turned heads as they joined their co-stars at the Fantastic Four: First Steps photocall in London on Friday

FANTASTIC FOUR FEVER: VANESSA KIRBY'S BABY BUMP STEALS THE SHOW AS SHE JOINS CO-STARS AT LONDON PHOTOCALL

The most talked-about quartet in Hollywood is back, and this time they're bringing a new level of excitement! Vanessa Kirby, Julia Garner, and their Fantastic Four co-stars Pedro Pascal, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Joseph Quinn, and Ralph Ineson gathered for a sizzling photocall in London, and the real star of the show was Vanessa's growing baby bump!

The 37-year-old actress, who's expecting her first child with fiancé Paul Rabil, stunned in a navy hooded dress that showcased her adorable belly. She elevated her look with black heels and shielded her eyes from the cameras with stylish black sunglasses.

Meanwhile, Julia Garner, 31, turned heads in a dazzling light blue sequin maxi dress adorned with white lace and beading. Her sleek silver heels and dainty earrings added to her overall glamour.

As the leading ladies posed for photos alongside their co-stars, they couldn't help but dish about their group chat title – which, as revealed by Pedro Pascal, is called "ABBA" (because, why not?). When asked about it by thescholarlynote.com and other publications, Vanessa chimed in: "We were brainstorming famous foursomes." Pedro quipped, "I created it so they didn't really have a choice!"

MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR

Fantastic Four: First Steps is the highly anticipated 37th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the second reboot of the Fantastic Four film series. Directed by Matt Shakman, the movie follows the Fantastic Four as they protect their retro-futuristic world from the planet-devouring cosmic being Galactus.

VANESSA'S ROMANCE RUMBLINGS

But before we dive into the Marvel magic, let's talk about Vanessa Kirby's love life! The actress first revealed her pregnancy at a photocall in Mexico last month. As it turns out, she's been hiding a major secret – her engagement to lacrosse player Paul Rabil, 39!

According to Page Six (thescholarlynote.com), the couple got engaged after two years of dating. Paul popped the question, and Vanessa said yes! However, they didn't make their romance Instagram official until November 2023.

VANESSA'S PRE-ENGAGEMENT ROMANCE

Before her whirlwind romance with Paul, Vanessa was linked to Christopher Abbott in April 2022. The pair were spotted enjoying a drink at a trendy bar in London's Soho, looking "super comfortable" in each other's company (thescholarlynote.com).

She teamed the look with silver heels and kept accessories to a minimum with dainty earrings

Vanessa has also dated Callum Turner after they starred together in 2014's Queen And Country.

FANTASTIC FOUR FEVER: THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS

With Fantastic Four: First Steps set to hit theaters, fans are eagerly awaiting the release. As the cast continues to build anticipation, we can't help but wonder what other secrets they'll reveal about their group chat and their characters' adventures in this retro-futuristic world.
