Celebrity friends and fans have flocked to Halsey's Instagram to send their well wishes and messages of congratulations.

Halsey announced her pregnancy back in January 2021 via her Instagram with three pictures of her new baby bump.
Back in April 2021, Halsey told the paparazzi that they will "absolutely not" be having a gender reveal party.
In February 2021, Halsey opened up about their own thoughts on gender, after sharing that they now use she/they pronouns.
Halsey wrote: "I've been thinking lots about my body. it’s strange to watch yourself change so quickly. I thought pregnancy would give me very strong, binary feelings about 'womanhood' but truly it has leveled my perception of gender entirely."
"My sensitivity to my body has made me hyper aware of my humanness and that's all. Doing a remarkable thing. And it's grand. I hope the feeling lasts."
