After a few days since Zoella’s bump went missing, it resurfaced back on Deyes’ Instagram stories on August 24, 2021. He posted a series of videos on his IG stories which cleared up the confusion.
The videos begin at their vegetable garden, where Deyes and his friend Sean find a big courgette. They pluck it and rush indoors to show Zoella and his sister Poppy.
But from the next clip, our eyes weren’t on the courgette anymore, but on Zoella, to know whether she still had a big tummy.
And she did. Even though the two girls were sitting on the sofa and getting astonished by the size of the vegetable they just saw, her baby bump was sort of visible.
In the subsequent clip, seemingly a while later, Deyes asked her to stand up and show her still-existing baby bump to the world. “Zoe, stand up a second. Everyone in my DMs is asking if you're pregnant or if you've had the baby,” said Deyes laughing.
She, too, started giggling and stood up to show the bump. Dressed in a white t-shirt, she cradled her bump from outside the clothing.

Then, she even admitted that the pictures were misleading in a way, saying, "I'm still pregnant… It did look like I wasn't pregnant though!"
