Britney Spears' fans think she’s confirmed her baby’s gender and name on social media

Britney Spears ' fans think the pregnant pop icon has already confirmed her baby’s gender and name on social media.

The 40-year-old announced her surprise baby news earlier this week, as she took to Instagram to reveal she and fiancé Sam Asghari are expecting their first child together.

The news is bittersweet for Britney’s fans, as they heard last year in her conservatorship court case that she was forcibly put on contraception so she wouldn’t get pregnant.

The Toxic hitmaker has spoken openly about her desire to have another baby, as she’s already mum to two sons - Sean, 16, and Jayden, 15 - who she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline.

However, eagle-eyed sleuthing fans have speculated that Britney has already given the sex and name of her unborn baby away in a cryptic post on Instagram.

Posting a close-up photo of half of her face, so captioned the snap with eye emojis and pink heart emojis.

“ROSE!!!” Britney wrote, sending her fans into overdrive.

“It's a girl?” one commented, as another added: “Baby Rose.”

“Is that the babies name?” one follower asked.

While some suggested her post could be in reference to her lawyer Matthew Rosengart, who helped her escape the clutches of her father Jamie’s hold over her by persuading a judge to put an end to the 13-year legal agreement.

“Is rose ROSENGART or is rose a name for a girl?! Because omg how precious would that be!!!! Rose spears asghari!!” one wrote.

Others agreed that Rose was the perfect name for Britney’s baby, and believed she could be naming her daughter after the lawyer who changed her life.

Britney revealed her pregnancy news in an unassuming post on Instagram on Monday, as she said she took a test after gaining weight on a recent holiday.

“I am having a baby. It’s growing! If two are in there, I might just lose it,” she wrote.
