😲 “Pregnant?” Ice Seguerra Breaks Silence After Viral ‘Baby Bump’ Speculation Sends Internet Into Frenzy

Manila, Philippines – May 2025 — Social media was set ablaze this week after netizens began speculating that singer-songwriter and LGBTQ+ icon Ice Seguerra was pregnant — all because of a single photo. The viral buzz caught fire when online users claimed they spotted what looked like a “baby bump” during one of Ice’s recent public appearances with wife Liza Diño.

📸 The Photo That Sparked Rumors
The image in question showed Ice smiling warmly beside Liza, but some netizens zoomed in and drew their own conclusions about a slight curve in his midsection. It didn’t take long before memes, edited sonogram images, and captions like “Ice Seguerra is expecting!” flooded Facebook and X (formerly Twitter), causing confusion, amusement, and in some cases, backlash.

💬 Ice Responds With Humor and Clarity
Ice Seguerra didn’t let the gossip grow legs. Instead, he addressed the rumor directly on his official Facebook account, posting one of the fake edits and responding with trademark wit:

“HINDI PO AKO BUNTIS!!! BILBIL LANG PO ITO.”
(Translation: “I am NOT pregnant! That’s just belly fat.”)

His response was met with laughter and support, with fans applauding his ability to shut down rumors with humor and class. Many also noted how these kinds of speculations highlight society’s continued misunderstanding and objectification of trans individuals.

👩‍❤️‍👨 A Couple’s Real Parenthood Journey
Fueling the confusion was the fact that Ice and his wife, former FDCP chairperson Liza Diño, have publicly expressed their desire to have a child. In past interviews, they spoke candidly about undergoing IVF, with Liza set to carry the baby using Ice’s egg and donor sperm. Their openness about this journey inspired many, but some netizens seem to have jumped ahead of reality.

😅 Déjà Vu? Not the First Time
In fact, this wasn’t the first time Ice faced such rumors. A similar wave of pregnancy jokes surfaced in 2019, to which he also responded with playful sarcasm:
“Ayos! May excuse na ako kung bakit ako mataba.”
(“Nice! I now have an excuse for gaining weight.”)

This latest round of speculation only underscores how queer and transgender celebrities often face inappropriate scrutiny — something Ice has learned to handle with grace and humor.

🌈 More Than Just a Viral Moment
While the situation may seem like a lighthearted online mishap, it also serves as a reminder of the boundaries people cross when discussing bodies — especially those of trans individuals. Ice’s firm yet playful clapback became a teachable moment for many: don’t assume, don’t invade, and most importantly — respect.

💖 Still Standing, Still Singing
Through it all, Ice Seguerra remains unfazed. Whether performing on stage, advocating for LGBTQ+ rights, or debunking baseless rumors online, Ice continues to be a figure of strength and authenticity.

Pregnant or not, Ice Seguerra is still delivering — not a baby, but the same realness and resilience fans have admired for decades.
