Los Angeles, Aug 4 : American popstar Justin Bieber and his model wife Hailey have dropped a hint of the gender of their baby in the latest pictures they have shared on social media.

Justin took to Instagram, where he shared a string of pictures from a photoshoot, however what caught the eyes of the netizens were two images, where the couple were seen standing in front of a light, which also had hues of blue on it.

World is so wicked, we need him! Justin has always been my daughter's favourite artist growing up! She has started to sing about God, my heart exploded! Keep it up Justin, you have the platform for it and he will bless you with joy!'

Just last month, Justin shared a touching video featuring him and Hailey. In the clip, the 'Baby' hitmaker was seen standing behind his wife, lovingly holding her blossoming baby bump, while she gently stroked her belly.

Although the video was shared without a caption, fans then too had speculated in the comments that the couple might be expecting a boy.
