Maisie Smith and Max George confuse fans with 'pregnancy announcement'

Fans of former EastEnders star Maisie Smith were left scratching their head over a 'pregnancy announcement' on her Instagram page.

The 21-year-old shared a snap of herself with her boyfriend Max George while Maisie cradled her 'bump'.

The 33-year-old The Wanted singer could be seen looking down at her tummy - which is covered with a love heart emoji - while he holds his hand to his mouth in disbelief.

Captioning the snap, Maisie penned: "We've got some really exciting news."

From the photo, fans immediately assumed that they were expecting their first child together given the nature of their post.

However, on Maisie's next story, fans soon realised what was happening.

Maisie took away the emoji from the second snap as she said: "I just had the best 5 course meal of my life."

Instead of being pregnant with an actual baby, the actress joked that she was expecting a 'food baby'.

The post comes shortly after Maisie insisted Max is “the one" and defended their 13-year age gap, writes The Mirror.

Many have criticised their relationship due to the age gap, but the pair have continued to defend themselves.

Max and Maisie grew close on the 2020 Strictly Come Dancing series before their relationship turned romantic and they began dating last year.
