It was the worst kept secret in the world of celebrity but Cheryl recently revealed her baby bump after months of keeping a low profile.
She's made no secret of the fact she loves children and alluded to wanting children in past interviews, so why the secrecy surrounding her pregnancy?
Well, according to Closer Magazine, it's because she feared talking about the pregnancy could jinx it.

Apparently a source told the magazine that Cheryl was "scared that after years of bad luck, she may jinx the best thing that ever happened to her, which prompted her to stay silent."
Cheryl has had her fair share of bad luck in the past, having gone through two failed marriages in the public eye.
Hopefully this is the start of happier times for the former Girls Aloud singer.
We're so pleased for Cheryl and boyfriend Liam Payne, we think they will be wonderful parents.
