Beyoncé's pregnancy shot is Instagram's most-liked post of 2017

Beyoncé's artful photo announcing her pregnancy with twins back in February was the most-liked Instagram post of the year, the social network announced on Wednesday.

Alongside a now-famous photo in which Beyoncé, clearly pregnant, kneels atop a flower bed covered in a green veil, the post included a message from the Carters in which they revealed their family would be "growing by two." The post earned more than 11.1 million likes.

In a fitting follow-up, Beyoncé's Instagram post revealing the twins, Rumi and Sir Carter, at one month old, earned the fourth spot on Instagram's top ten.

Selena Gomez, meanwhile, holds five spots in the top ten; her top post of the year was a heartfelt message revealing she had recently undergone a kidney transplant.

Cristiano Ronaldo takes the three remaining spots, including the number-two post of the year, in which he revealed the birth of his baby girl earlier this month.

The most-liked Instagram posts of the year are as follows:

I’m very aware some of my fans had noticed I was laying low for part of the summer and questioning why I wasn’t promoting my new music, which I was extremely proud of. So I found out I needed to get a kidney transplant due to my Lupus and was recovering. It was what I needed to do for my overall health. I honestly look forward to sharing with you, soon my journey through these past several months as I have always wanted to do with you. Until then I want to publicly thank my family and incredible team of doctors for everything they have done for me prior to and post-surgery. And finally, there aren’t words to describe how I can possibly thank my beautiful friend Francia Raisa. She gave me the ultimate gift and sacrifice by donating her kidney to me. I am incredibly blessed. I love you so much sis. Lupus continues to be very misunderstood but progress is being made. For more information regarding Lupus please go to the Lupus Research Alliance website: www.lupusresearch.org/ -by grace through faith
