KEY POINTS

  • Jennifer Lawrence flaunted her baby bump for the first time this week
  • The “Hunger Games” actress stepped out with a friend in Manhattan
  • They were spotted heading to a downtown eatery to grab lunch together

Jennifer Lawrence debuted her baby bump in public when she stepped out in New York City this week.

The “Hunger Games” actress, 31, was spotted by the paparazzi when she hit the streets of Manhattan with a friend on Thursday.

In the photos obtained by Page Six, Lawrence was seen rocking a white t-shirt, floral overalls and a pair of jelly sandals. She let her flowy hair down and donned dark sunglasses during the outing.

Eyewitnesses told the outlet that Lawrence and her friend headed to a downtown eatery and ordered a grilled cheese sandwich, fries, tomato soup, chicken wings and a side salad for lunch.

In one snap, Lawrence seemingly noticed the photographers as she looked to the cameras while enjoying her meal by the sidewalk.

It was the Hollywood star’s first public sighting a day after her rep confirmed to the press that she and husband Cooke Maroney, 37, are expecting their first child together.

It’s not yet known when Lawrence is due since the actress has not really revealed how far along she is in her pregnancy.

The pregnancy news came almost two years after the “Don’t Look Up” actress and the art gallery owner tied the knot in Rhode Island in 2019, as per Entertainment Weekly.

Lawrence and Maroney were first linked together in June 2018. They got engaged in February 2019, and the two exchanged wedding vows months later.

In a June 2019 guest appearance on the “Naked With Catt Sadler” podcast, the Oscar-winning actress gushed over her husband saying he’s “the greatest human being I’ve ever met.”

When she was asked how she found out that Maroney was the one for her, Lawrence said, “It's just — this is the one, I know that sounds really stupid but he's just, he's — you know. He's the greatest person I've ever met, so I feel very honored to become a Maroney.”

Lawrence and Maroney tied the knot at the luxurious Belcourt of Newport mansion in front of 150 guests. Many celebrities were in attendance at the time, including Adele, Cameron Diaz, Amy Schumer, Emma Stone, Nicole Richie and Kris Jenner.
