On Sunday, Derulo shared a video on his Instagram page featuring himself and Frumes walking along the beach in the Bahamas, with Frumes’ baby bump visible.

One shot features Derulo kissing Frumes’ baby bump while another shows the words “coming soon” written in the sand.

In the caption below, Derulo wrote: “Couldn’t be more excited for this new chapter in our life.”

Derulo, 31, has previously spoken about his desire to have children.

“You know, I think I’m getting to that age, you know what I’m saying?,” he said when being asked if he had “Baby fever” in an interview with Page Six last year.

The couple met just before the pandemic began last year.

Reflecting on how covronavirus had changed his mindset, Derulo told People: “These last few months have changed the way that I think about my career.

“I don’t think I can be away from home that long anymore. It will change a lot of people, right?”
