Fans Have Long Speculated That Jania Was Pregnant: ‘It’s The Baby Bump For Me’

We should also point out that, over on Instagram, Jania being pregnant has been steady gossip for quite some time now. If you check out the comments beneath a few recent posts, you can see people buzzing with speculation on the matter.

“It’s the baby bump for me,” one user wrote beneath a photo uploaded on Christmas Day.

Under another Christmastime upload, someone told Jania to “keep posting pics and slay this pregnancy!”

Fans were even hitting Jania with the pregnancy allegations back in October, as some believed she was “Giving pregnant for some reason.”

This time, it looks like the speculation was right on the nose. However, this hasn’t always been the case.

Devin Haney Got Messy & Jumpstarted Pregnancy Rumors Back In The Day

Throwing it back to May 2021, Jania had to shut down pregnancy rumors that were sparked by boxer Devin Haney, her ex-boyfriend.

As The Shade Room previously reported, the matter began with a social media back-and-forth, which began after Jania shared that she was “Single 4Life.” Eventually, Haney pulled posted an unflattering photo that caused some to believe she was pregnant.

However, Jania shut the matter down by sharing that she was merely “bloated” at the time.

Congratulations to Jania Meshell and Dejounte Murray!
