Actress Diane Kruger and her boyfriend, The Walking Dead star Norman Reedus, are believed to be expecting their first baby together. Although the couple, who have been dating since 2016, haven't officially announced they are expecting, many sources are reporting the exciting news, following her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival.

The actress, known for her parts in Troy, National Treasure and Unknown, also alluded to being pregnant when she posted a black and white photo of herself to Instagram last week. The photo was captioned with an emoji of two feet, and many fans picked up on the subtle hint.

One fan commented, 'absolutely beautiful picture that speaks volumes by itself. If the 👣 mean what everyone thinks they mean, the congratulations to you both. I hate all the negativity i have read. I wish you both all the happiness, joy, and love in the world!' sic, whilst another said, 'A beautiful couple...here's to much happiness :).' sic

The messages of congratulations continued to come in from all over the world with one fan saying, 'Congratulations to you both and your families! Beautiful photo! xo 😘 You all made me cry watching “Sky”. Love that movie.' sic and another saying, '👣CONGRATULATIONS👣 to you both💞'.

If the rumours are true then this would be the couple's first child together, but Norman's second. The Walking Dead star shares his 18-year-old son Mingus with his former girlfriend of five years, supermodel Helena Christensen. The couple dated between 1998 to 2003, however they never married.

Whilst Diane is known for starring in a number of films Norman is probably most recognised for his role in The Walking Dead, Daryl Dixon; who is believed to become the new lead role in the hit TV series.

Earlier today we revealed Andrew Lincoln's character, former Sheriff Rick Grimes is expected to be phased out over the upcoming season nine of the series, with Norman's Daryl Dixon taking over as the leading role.

Andrew apparently hinted earlier this year that he could be leaving The Walking Dead, as NME reported him as saying, “There’s certainly an endgame in my head. Whether or not that’s the same endgame that’s in the producers’ heads or the people I work with, is another matter. That’s open for discussion."
