Emma Watkins and Lachlan Gillespie — a.k.a Yellow Wiggle and Purple Wiggle — have sent fans into overdrive with a cryptic message posted to social media.

Emma, the first female star of the supergroup, took to Instagram to share an adorable shot of herself and her new-husband. But it’s the caption that’s left fans BUZZING with baby joy…

She captioned the shot: “🍂🍃🌼🍃🍂 #staytuned.”

Could it be?! Are we to expect a wiggly little thing in the coming months? And do those emojis signal a spring due date?

Fans of the much-loved duo have been quick to comment with their delight, anticipation and speculation:

“Looking lovely you two. Or is it three 🙊 either way looking forward to hearing more.”

“Baby wiggle????”

“The overalls are a give away! ✨🙏🏼✨”

“I sense a tiny wiggle! 😊.”

“Omg please be a #babywiggle.”

And the news certainly fits in with the couple’s baby timeline!

The duo, who tied the knot in front of 200 friends and family a little over a year ago, spoke about their baby plans shortly after their nuptials.

Speaking with A Current Affair , the power couple explained that starting a family was definitely on their agenda and even their parents had hoped they would get a wiggle on.

“Even mum said something at the wedding,” Lachy laughed.

“So, we kind of will have to plan it in between tours. But yes, some day in the future would be lovely.”

The musical stars said “I do” at Hopewood House in beautiful Bowral, in NSW’s Southern Highlands.

Emma, 27, looked radiant in an elegant ivory vintage-meets contemporary gown by Australian designer Suzanne Harward. The Wiggles beauty completed the look with a diamond headpiece by milliner Viktoria Novak.

Lachy, 31, gave a node to his Scottish heritage by donning a tartan sash across his suit. The purple frontman of the children’s group included his fellow band members on the special day, with fellow red Wiggle Simon Pryce one of his six groomsmen.

Speaking of his breathtaking bride, Lachy said: “Seeing Emma was the most magical moment of my life. Everything else just seemed to melt away.”

While Emma summed up the incredible day with these touching words: “Lachy. Love. Laughter. The best day of my life.”

We can’t WAIT to hear more from the lovely couple!
