Although Gina Rodriguez kept silent about her new love life during her appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show on Thursday, the actress shared her dream of having a baby.
Rodriguez, 31, plays a new mother who got pregnant after a doctor artificially inseminated her by accident. The actress said she felt a strange connection with the baby on the set as soon as she cuddled it. “I feel like they bring the baby up to me on set and my ovaries are like, “Ahh! Come here, baby!’” Gina Rodriguez shared to Ellen.

“It’s, like, perfect. As soon as one cries they take it away from me and the other one comes in. That’s what happens in real life, right? I could adopt, right? Yeah, I just might do that. I definitely want to adopt,” she continued.
Schwartz, 34, currently stars in the hit political drama series House of Lies and also appeared in NBC’s Parks and Recreation as Jean-Ralphio. His new film The Intervention premiered at this year’s Sundance Festival’s dramatic competition.
