Hilary Duff enjoyed a solo shopping spree in LA on Wednesday as she prepares for the arrival of her fourth child.
The 36-year-old showed off her growing baby bump in comfortable black high-waisted leggings and a taupe tank top.
She wore black flip-flops on her feet and carried a bag from the gourmet supermarket Jayde’s Market in the Beverly Glen neighborhood of Los Angeles.
The Lizzie McGuire alum — who recently discovered plans for a reboot had been scrapped — hopped into her SUV and headed to her next destination.

Fans of Lizzie McGuire were disappointed when Disney+ scrapped plans for a 2020 reboot of the series, which would have followed the life and adventures of an adult Lizzie.
Luckily, one of the reboot’s writers, Jonathan Hurwitz, took to TikTok this week to reveal the planned plot details.
The series was planned to open with a 30-year-old Lizzie moving home from New York City after finding out her boyfriend had cheated on her with one of her friends.
Then Hurwitz quickly abandoned any hopes of a romantic reunion between Lizzie and her BFF Gordo, despite their kiss at the end of the 2002 Lizzie McGuire film.
“Lizzie meets Gordo and Gordo reveals that he is engaged to a woman, and she is pregnant, and they are very happy,” Hurwitz explained. “So no, in this version Lizzie and Gordo wouldn’t have ended up together.”
However, at the end of episode 2 it said, “Lizzie gets a text from Ethan Craft, and little animated Lizzie faints,” according to Hurwitz.
Ethan was Lizzie’s high school crush, and during the reboot, the writers suggested that the pair might eventually spend the night together.
“Episode 3 wasn’t filmed, but it was scripted,” Hurwitz said. “Lizzie wakes up in Ethan’s bed, in his water polo shirt.”
“Animated Lizzie shows up and she has a little checklist, like a to-do list, and Ethan is on the list. She checks it off and I think she says something like, “Well, check that box (dramatic pause) twice.”‘
Hurwitz also confirmed that Lizzie would have a gay roommate, loosely based on himself.
Lizzie McQuire quickly became a huge Disney Channel hit after it debuted in 2001.
It followed the humorous escapades of teenager Lizzie as she navigated adolescence with her animated alter ego providing witty commentary.
She wore black flip-flops on her feet and carried a bag from the gourmet supermarket Jayde’s Market in the Beverly Glen neighborhood of Los Angeles.

Duff heavily promoted the reboot via social media, even breaking the sad news of the cancellation on her Instagram account.
“I know efforts and conversations have been going on everywhere to make a reboot work, but unfortunately and despite everyone’s best efforts, that won’t happen,” she wrote at the time.
“I want any Lizzie reboot to be honest and authentic to who Lizzie would be today. That’s what the character deserves.
“We can all take a moment to mourn the wonderful woman she would have been and the adventures we would have had with her,” she concluded.
