Hilary Duff showcased her growing baby bump while stepping out in Los Angeles on Monday afternoon.
The 36-year-old flashed a smile and was joined by a friend as she made the most of the pleasant spring weather and spent a bit of time in the sun.
The Disney Channel alum – who recently won a $1.25 million-dollar lawsuit – donned a jet-blackdress that conformed tightly to her stomach.
Duff also accessorized with a pair of chic sunglasses, as well as silver hoop earrings as she stepped out.
The Lizzie McGuire star’s bright golden hair cascaded onto her shoulders and contrasted with the dark tone of her clothing.
The actress revealed that she would be kindly refusing to respond to messages concerning fourth child’s due date in a message that was shared on her Instagram Story this past Sunday.
The state of the actress’ pregnancy has become the subject of attention from her longtime fans over the past few months, and many have reached out to inquire about how she had been holding up.
Duff began by writing: ‘Hi friends — This is meant in the kindest tone (I promise) … I am no longer responding to texts or dm’s about “when baby is coming!”‘
The Agent Cody Banks actress went on to express that she was appreciative of the well wishes from her fans and that she was also counting down the days until her upcoming child’s arrival.
She wrote: ‘I know everyone is checking in with love and humor, however, trust me…nobody wants it more than me!’
The performer concluded by writing that she would keep her fans informed about the state of her pregnancy at her own rate.
‘Babies come when they are ready. I am trying my best to be patient! The days are long and uncomfortable. Promise I will let you know,’ she wrote.
She previously shared photos from an acupuncture session to her Instagram Story last week while ‘gently trying to give baby the eviction notice.’
According to Hennepin Healthcare, weekly pre-birth acupuncture, beginning at 36 weeks, ‘can help to prepare the body for labor and delivery and promote relaxation and restful sleep.’
