Hollywood's best kept secret! How Gal Gadot kept her pregnancy hidden from the world by wearing baggy clothes and keeping a VERY low profile - as the star welcomes her fourth child

Gal Gadot shocked fans on Wednesday by announcing the birth of her fourth child - a baby daughter named Ori.

The news seemingly came out of the blue as the 38-year-old hadn't publicly revealed her pregnancy.

The Israeli actress has kept a low profile in recent months and has used her Instagram account to promote the plight of Israeli hostages post October 7, rather than herself. 

She's made very few public appearances, and even skipped a screening she had organized of Hamas' terror attack in November.

The Wonder Woman star was last spotted swanning into the swanky Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles with her husband Jaron Varsano on December 4.

She was dressed in tight leather pants, but attempted to conceal her stomach with a loose-fitting lemon sweater. 

She had minimal makeup and hid her famous visage behind a pair of aviator sunglasses.

Before that, she was spotted running some errands in Los Angeles with her eldest daughter Alma in November. 

In a bid to conceal her growing bump, Gal wore black sweatpants and matching hooded sweatshirt. 

The star's last major red appearance was at the Hollywood premiere of the Barbie movie on July 9.

While it's unclear if she had conceived at this point or not, her brown leather JW Anderson frock featured a ruffle skirt that covered her stomach.

Gal's secrecy is a world away from how public her last pregnancy was in 2021.

While expecting her third daughter Daniella, the former IDF soldier regularly flaunted her baby bump in public and on social media. 

Gal shared the big news of her latest birth with fans on Instagram on Wednesday, posting a snap of her cuddling her newborn daughter and the meaning behind the child's name, Ori.

She often shared photos from her third pregnancy on social media with her millions of fans

'My sweet girl, welcome. The pregnancy was not easy and we made it through. You have brought so much light into our lives, living up to your name, Ori, which means "my light" in Hebrew. Our hearts are full of gratitude,' she captioned the post. 

'Welcome to the house of girls. Daddy is pretty cool too,' she added. Her husband, Jaron Varsano, was tagged in the photo.

Gal revealed in 2020 that she and her spouse met at a 'chakra/yoga retreat type of party' during an interview with Vogue. 

The couple wed in 2008 after feeling instantly enamored with one another.
