But the 26-year-old, who is married to NRL player Nate Myles, has taken to social media to try and convince us her bub is still cooking.

But we have some theories of our own…

Tessa recently posted this pic, which prompted a very curious friend to ask if it was a recent shot.

The stunning mama-to-be shared a beach-side snap showing her basking in the sun – her baby bump on full display in a stylish black one-piece.

“Summer 2017,” the star cryptically captioned the snap, which could perhaps indicate it’s a throwback and maybe she’s trying to throw us off the scent and her baby has been born?

Or perhaps, like so many of us at the start of a new year, Tessa simply forgot to write 2018.

Tessa’s agent confirmed she was five months pregnant in August last year, so according to our calculations her due date was around December.

Further fuelling speculation she has maybe become a mum, last week Tessa posted a shot of Manly’s iconic Shelly Beach walkway which prompted a curious friend to ask: “Ummm is this a current photo??”

To which Tessa replied: “I wish.”

It’s all very confusing indeed, but one thing’s for sure – Tessa has never looked happier or healthier!

Tessa and husband Nate Myles can’t wait to welcome their first child together.

Despite keeping a pretty low-profile during her pregnancy, she stunned on the December cover of Elle.

“Being pregnant is a miracle because growing a baby, it’s pretty incredible when you think about it. When you haven’t had children and you see mums and kids everywhere you just think that’s normal. But when it happens to you, you’re like, ‘Oh my gosh, all these women have done this? Wow,” she told the glossy.
