Her choice of a blue panties and a pink bra lead fans to speculate she's expecting a boy and a girl.

Rihanna, Rita Ora and Brie Larson were among the first celebrities to congratulate the star and her husband Jay-Z over social media.

The Single Ladies singer, who has kept out of the spotlight in recent months, and the rapper are already parents to five-year-old Blue Ivy.

In 2013, Beyonce revealed she had suffered a miscarriage prior to the arrival of her daughter.  

Keeping mum: The singer was last pictured on stage with Jay-Z on November 4 while performing at a fundraiser for Democratic U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton

She said at the time: 'About two years ago, I was pregnant for the first time. And I heard the heartbeat, which was the most beautiful music I ever heard in my life.

WILL BEYONCE STILL PERFORM AT COACHELLA?

Beyonce, who is believed to be between four and five months along, is scheduled to headline Coachella in April.

Bosses at AEG Live, who produce the event, were not aware of her pregnancy, according to TMZ. 

The site claims it is unclear if she will even perform at the popular desert festival in Indio, California, but one source insists: 'The show will go on.'

'I picked out names. I envisioned what my child would look like. I was feeling very maternal.

'I flew back to New York to get my check up - and no heartbeat. Literally the week before I went to the doctor, everything was fine, but there was no heartbeat.

'I went into the studio and wrote the saddest song I've ever written in my life. And it was actually the first song I wrote for my album. 

'And it was the best form of therapy for me, because it was the saddest thing I've ever been through.' 

(The track is called Heartbeat. Jay-Z also briefly referenced the miscarriage in his song Glory.)

Beyonce was thrilled when she discovered she was expecting Blue Ivy and found it hard to keep the news to herself to begin with.

Speaking in her TV show Life Is But a Dream, Beyonce said: 'Being pregnant was very much like falling in love. You are so open. You are so overjoyed. 

'There's no words that can express having a baby growing inside of you, so of course you want to scream it out and tell everyone.'

Shortly after welcoming Blue Ivy, she revealed she wanted more children, telling US Vogue: 'When I was younger, there were moments where I said, "I'm not going to have children", and then there were moments when I wanted four. And now I definitely want another, but I don't know when.'  

 

Well wishes: Rihanna, Rita Ora, Paris Hilton, Brie Larson and Beyonce's mom Tina Lawson were among those to congratulate the couple on social media

She also described motherhood as 'beautiful'.

She said: 'When I wake up in the morning, the best thing in the world is seeing her face. 

'It's just such a beautiful time in my life to have a child and every day see something new and see her learn something new.' 

Beyonce and Jay-Z met in the late 1990s and got married in 2008. 

She sure knows how to take fans by surprise: Beyonce revealed her first pregnancy by opening her jacket and stroking her bump on stage at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards

She sent the internet into overdrive at the end of April last year with the release of her hour-long visual album Lemonade in which she hinted her spouse had been cheating on her with a woman named Becky.

In one track, Sorry, Beyoncé sang: 'Looking at my watch he should have been home/ I regret the day I put that ring on/ He always got them f***ing excuses/ He only want me when I'm not on there / He better call Becky with the good hair.'

By the end of the album, the pair - who have been rocked with affair allegations for years - have seemingly patched up their differences and prepared to give their marriage another go.

However, although many fans were quick to lash out at the rapper for his alleged behaviour, some people branded it a publicity stunt to rake in cash.

The couple made no official comment on the affair rumours.
