Now, the New York Post has claimed the singer is pregnant with their first child after being spotted with what could be a baby bump.

A friend told the newspaper: "She has gained a lot of pregnancy weight. When she gains weight, she normally does the Def Jam detox, but not now."

However, a representative of Beyonce said they did not know if she was pregnant.

"Let me perform an ultrasound and get back to you," the rep quipped.

If the claims are true, the 26-year-old will need to take time out from her exhaustive dance routines to relax.

The American College of Nurse-Midwives' Mary Murry has told the Mayo Clinic that taking time out from work and household activities can ensure women have a smooth birth.
