Dua Lipa left fans in shock after showing 'NSFW' detail in background of bathroom selfie

Dua Lipa fans were left stunned after they spotted a steamy surprise lurking in the background of one of her bathroom selfies.

The pop star, 29, routinely shares social media posts showing snippets of her life with her millions of followers, who apparently have quite an eye for detail.

A host of people picked up on an interesting feature which could be seen behind the 'New Rules' singer as she posed in front of a mirror back in July 2023.

At the time, Dua was enjoying a Greek getaway with her former boyfriend, French filmmaker Romain Gavras, during the summer season.

She uploaded a string of snaps to Instagram that gave fans a glimpse of her travels, showing her frolicking in the Mediterranean, cosying up to her then-man and exploring landmarks.

And in another, the London-born star was seen flashing her stomach in a mirror selfie, which was presumably taken shortly after she hopped out of the shower.

But it seems she didn't do a quick assessment of what was visible in the reflection of the bathroom before she clicked upload, as fans spotted an 'NSFW detail' Dua supposedly overlooked.

In the image, the singer is seen striking a pose in front of a shower cubicle which has a clothes hanger hooked on the door... and a bit above that, there are some intriguing imprints in the steam.

The source of them remains up for debate to this day, as Dua has neither confirmed nor denied their origin.

However, fans were convinced the marks looked remarkably like hand prints on the steam-covered glass doors - and it doesn't take a genius to work out how they would get there.

Was Dua doing her best mime routine from inside the cubicle? Perhaps.

Or, she might have simply been struggling to find the shower door while blinded by condensation, prompting her to try and paw her way out.

And maybe, just maybe, the 'Dance The Night' singer might have needed something to lean on while shaving her legs.

But the comment section of her post was filled with much spicier suggestions than that, especially after the pic went viral.

One person joked: "Dua babe u weren't alone in that shower."

And a second laughed: "There was nothing clean going on in that shower from what I see."

But some did reckon there must be an alternate explanation, as the imprints appeared to be pretty precise if they were the result of a sexual encounter in a shower.

Another commenter wrote: "I’m sorry but if those marks are what everyone is thinking, then shouldn’t they be like, more haphazard than that?"

Dua's not the only celeb who could do with triple-checking what is in the background of her snaps, either - as Selena Gomez has just made a similar slip-up, according to fans.
