Anne Hathaway knows how to rock a pregnancy reveal on her own terms. Months after rumors first swirled the star is expecting a baby with husband Adam Shulman, the actress has chosen to beat the paparazzi to the punch.

Sharing a bump-baring bikini shot to Instagram the mom-to-be wrote:

"Happy 2016 to my beautiful Instafriends!

So, posting a bikini pic is a little out of character for me, but just now while I was at the beach I noticed I was being photographed. I figure if this kind of photo is going to be out in the world it should at least be an image that makes me happy (and be one that was taken with my consent. And with a filter...
Wishing you love, light and blessings for the year ahead!"

Anne Hathaway pregnancy

Anne Hathaway's bikini bump photo is quite a departure from her usual posting style, which, like most of us, tends to lean more towards funny cat pictures and small glimpses into her professional life.

On the one hand it's hard not to feel bad that Anne was forced into sharing the news herself or find unauthorized photos of herself in a bikini in the press, but on the other I say thank goodness for social media! It's certainly not a perfect situation, but I'd much rather see her beaming smile in a self-posted pic than feel gross when intrusive shots pop up on the web.

Pregnancy is looking darn good on Anne. Best wishes for the safe arrival of baby Shulman!

Just for fun, imagine you're a celebrity mom-to-be. How would you go about confirming (or hiding) your pregnancy?
