The Cannes Film Festival has become a glamorous stage for more than just movie premieres — it’s also where several stars have chosen to unveil their growing baby bumps to the world.

From Blake Lively‘s curve-hugging Versace gown to Barbara Palvin‘s joyful announcement alongside husband Dylan Sprouse and Annabelle Wallis‘ reveal alongside boyfriend Sebastian Stan, the French Riviera has played host to some unforgettable pregnancy reveals on the red carpet.

See the celebrities who debuted their pregnancies at the Cannes Film Festival through the years:

Annabelle Wallis

Following April 2026 news that she was expecting her first child with Thunderbolts’ Stan, Wallis debuted her growing bump while attending Cannes Film Festival’s 2026 Kering Women in Motion Awards event one month later.

Stepping out with Stan at the event’s red carpet, the Peaky Blinders star rocked a floor-length one-shoulder black gown that cut out at the side to reveal her torso and much of her toned back. As cameras flashed, Wallis beamed while holding a protective hand on her belly, posing for photos both on her own and alongside Stan.

Barbara Palvin

Palvin and Sprouse announced in May 2026 that they were expecting their first baby at the 79th annual Cannes Film Festival.

The supermodel showed off her growing baby bump in a light blue gown, while Sprouse opted for a classic black suit.

Claire Holt 

Holt revealed her pregnancy with baby No. 3 while attending the festival in May 2023, debuting her baby bump on the Killers of the Flower Moon red carpet in a gray halter-neck Lanvin gown with a lengthy train.

“Me & no 3 ✨,” Holt wrote via Instagram at the time.

Holt and husband Andrew Joblon, who wed in 2018, are also parents to son James (born March 2019) and daughter Elle (born September 2020). They welcomed son Ford in November 2023.

The Originals alum previously suffered a miscarriage before welcoming eldest son James.

“It was just really amazing to have a partner who was relentlessly there for me and so supportive and fights his own pain to help me out through it all,” Holt exclusively told Us Weekly in a February 2019 about Joblon’s support. “It was really beautiful as well. Obviously what we went through was tragic, but it brought us so much closer together. And I think it’s difficult to say this, because I would have loved to have had the baby and the pregnancy work out, but I wouldn’t change it because I learned so much and it really strengthened our relationship

Michelle Williams

Williams showed off her growing belly while attending the 2022 Cannes Film Festival. The actress stepped out to attend the premiere of her movie Showing Up, wowing in a Chanel Haute Couture black-and-white maxi dress with lace detailing on the red carpet.

Williams shares three children with husband Thomas Kail, and she is also mother of daughter Matilda, whom she welcomed with Heath Ledger in October 2005. (Ledger died in January 2008 at age 28.)

Blake Lively

Lively showcased her growing baby bump in a curve-hugging dress at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival, revealing she was expecting baby No. 2 with husband Ryan Reynolds.

Lively looked gorgeous in a sparkly Atelier Versace gown featuring a thigh-high slit and a long train, paired with Lorraine Schwartz jewelry at the premiere of The BFG.

Days earlier, Lively had a Cinderella moment in a powder-blue Vivienne Westwood Couture dress at the Slack Bay premiere.

“Everyone thinks I was inspired by the princesses. If they only knew,” she wrote via Instagram at the time, sharing a photo of Little Mermaid villain Ursula.

Lively and Reynolds are parents of four: James, Betty, Inez and Olin.

The stars went country — and daring — in nearly naked ensembles at the 2026 Academy of Country Music Awards.

Bachelor in Paradise alum Hannah Godwin slipped on a plunging, sheer gown that was embellished with intricate crystal beads and a feather-covered skirt.

“Checking in for a fun weekend,” Godwin wrote via her Instagram Stories ahead of the Sunday, May 17, awards show in Las Vegas.

“Shot in the Dark” singer Ashley Cooke, for her part, opted for a periwinkle frock with a completely transparent skirt. She completed her look with fresh-faced glam and wore her blonde locks down and straight.

Kane Brown fell hard for Katelyn Jae Brown the moment they met.

“We met down in Florida at my very first show ever, I believe it was in 2015,” the “Heaven” crooner recalled during an August 2020 interview with Radio.com. “The day before that show, I was supposed to be in her music video because she was an artist as well, and it couldn’t happen cause my show was the same day as the music video.”

He continued: “A year goes by and the same guy we were working with brings her to a show, she didn’t want to come and he forced her, basically. We met, we didn’t talk at all — I maybe said hey to her — but I thought she was adorable and I kept looking at her all night. So I asked her to come to Nashville, like, the next day, I flew her down and we just hit it off and she never left!”

Us Weekly confirmed in October 2018 that they got married in Nashville. Kane and Katelyn have since welcomed daughters Kingsley and Kodi and son Krewe.
