  • Jenni Farley “JWoww” and Fiancé are Pregnant with First Child

    Jenni “JWoww” Farley, 27, and fiancé Roger Matthews, 37, are expecting a new addition to the “Jersey Shore” family!

    “JWoww” announced her pregnancy on Twitter yesterday by posting a link to her official website.

    Under a graphic designed Christmas card of an ultrasound, the caption shares just how thrilled the couple is about their first pregnancy.

    “We are so excited to share this new chapter of our lives with you as we become parents and create more memories with a new addition to our family! Thank you for all your love and support and for being there for us throughout the years! We are extremely happy and cannot wait for our bundle of joy to arrive!”

    Farley, who is best friends with “Jersey Shore” co-star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, got engaged to Matthews September of 2012.

    The mom-to-be will be the third “Jersey Shore” star to welcome a child into the world.

    As for Polizzi, she is ecstatic for her best friend’s first pregnancy, something she knows all too well. She gave birth to her now one-year-old baby boy, Lorenzo Dominic LaValle, in August 2012.

    The “Jersey Shore” cast is known all too well for its all night partying and fist-pumping. However, in an interview with “Good Morning America” in 2012, Polizzi mentioned how she was changing and ditching the drinking scene altogether to enter into mommy-hood.

    Polizzi’s pregnancy advice to Farley was “Sleep safe, keep hydrated, no Advil or Aleve [and] No pushing on the toilet either.”

    We look forward to meeting baby Matthews who is due to arrive in July!

  • Jenelle Evans Is Pregnant And In Jail

    Jenelle Evans Is Pregnant And In Jail

    No surprise here…Jenelle Evans, from MTV’s Teen Mom 2, has been arrested again, making this her tenth arrest in only three years.

    The news of Evans’ arrest comes merely one week after she announced that she was pregnant with baby number two with her boyfriend Nathan Griffith. Apparently, Evans and Griffith were outside arguing loudly and a neighbor called the cops. After arriving at Evans’ home, the police arrested Evans for breaching the peace.

    Despite the allegations, Evans took to Twitter to explain what really happened. She said that she had not been outside all day, and that her neighbor only called the police to sell a story to the media. She claims that the police are even annoyed from the constant calls from her neighbor. “Dude u can say what u want,” Evans said. “The cops r sooooo annoyed by my neighbor constantly calling the cops on our dog and shit..”

    Last week, Evans spoke to MTV about her current pregnancy, and explained why she and Griffith decided to have a baby. “We just want a child of our own that we can raise together as a family, and we want a stable relationship for Jace and his daughter,” she said. “We just want to settle down.”

    Evans also talked about her very public image, and how far she has come since her days on Teen Mom 2. “I’ve got my life together now, and I’m a different person from what they’ve seen,” she said. “I just can’t wait for them to see how much I’ve bettered my life. I understand if they judge me now, but they won’t judge me soon.”

  • Evelyn Lozada Is Expecting Second Child

    Basketball Wives star, Evelyn Lozada, confirmed, via Twitter, that she is expecting her second child. Lozada has a child from her previous relationship, 20-year-old daughter, Shaniece Hairston.

    “You deserve everything that GOD sends your way. I am so excited to meet my new sibling! #YouJustKeepWinning #BabySwag #JOY,” Hariston wrote on an Instagram post that included a picture of her and Lozada walking on the beach with her hand on her mother’s growing belly.

    Lozada married Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson in July 2012. However, they spilt only a month later and filed for divorce after Johnson was arrested on a domestic violence charge. Their divorce was finalized in September 2012. At the time, Lozada’s attorney said, “Evelyn and Mr. Johnson were divorced this morning in an uncontested final hearing. My client is a single woman and looks forward to her future.” It looks like that future holds a tiny bundle of joy. Lozada has had a mystery boyfriend for over a year now, and says that he is who the baby’s father is…not Johnson.

    “Evelyn is extremely happy at this time and excited for new beginnings!,” her rep told E! News Friday.

    Lozada also posted a photo of herself on Instagram, in a black dress that highlighted her baby bump. The caption read: “New Beginnings.”

    The women of Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta are either going for lunch dates accompanies with mani/pedi’s or simply at each others throats. The reality show captures the intricate lives of the housewives that go from glamorous to downright vicious.

  • Christina McLarty, David Arquette Expecting a Baby

    Congratulations are in order! OMG! Insider correspondent, Christina McLarty and her boyfriend, veteran actor David Arquette, are expecting their first child together. According to TMZ, a number of sources close to the couple have confirmed that the former Entertainment Tonight correspondent is actually already in her fourth month.

    One inside source also said, “They were trying to keep this private, but it came as a surprise. They are excited and happy even though this was unexpected.”

    While the two are overjoyed about the pregnancy, the arrival of their little bundle of joy won’t insinuate any wedding bells just yet. According to US Weekly, just last month, the couple addressed engagement rumors, putting the status of their relationship into prospective for fans. “We are totally happy and together in love, but we are not engaged,” she said. “It’s just a rumor that got out of control.” The fans will just have to sit back and see what the coming months will bring.

    (image)   (image)

    This will be the second child for Arquette. The “Scream” actor also has a 9-year-old daughter with his ex-wife and “Scream” co-star, actress Courteney Cox. The two were married for 10 years before separating. Then, after two years of separation, they filed for divorce in June of 2012. Arquette has been dating McLarty on-and-off for almost two years. But, just because they haven’t reached a full consistency, doesn’t mean things won’t progress even further.

    However, on Oct. 1, 2013 Arquette openly declared his love for McLarty on “Watch What Happens Live.” A caller by the name of Nancy phoned in and asked if Arquette was dating anybody. “I’m dating an amazing girl named Christina McLarty. I’m madly in love with her and she’s the love of my life. Absolutely.”

    While this may actually be the statement that started the engagement rumor, it does justify speculation. If Arquette’s confession is anything to go by, once again, we’ll just have to wait and see what the next few months will bring.

  • Drew Barrymore Is Pregnant With Her Second Child

    Drew Barrymore is now expecting her second child, just 13 months after the birth of her daughter, Olive. She is pregnant with Will Kopelman’s second child, and the couple have been married since 2012. She grew up as an only child, and has always wanted a big family.

    The news of her second baby also comes just over a month after she announced on the Tonight Show With Jay Leno that she wanted to have another baby right away. It looks like the actress’ wishes were granted, and Olive will be a big sister in a matter of months.

    Barrymore has enjoyed a very successful career as an actress, and also starting business ventures such as a recent line of makeup. The 38-year-old actress is glad that she took them to live a full life and experiencing her wild times while she could, including a Playboy shoot in 1995. In 2012, she told Allure magazine, “I’m glad I lived such a full life before I settled down into a family because I got to enjoy it and get it out of my system.”

    Drew Barrymore got her start earlier than most actresses, and was adored as a child actress for her roles in E.T. and Stephen King’s Firestarter. Since then, she has appeared in several romance and comedy films, but has taken a break from the spotlight in order to concentrate on her family and other projects, such as a photography book, which is set to be released in January.

    She has already exposed her tiny baby bump when showing up in public in West Hollywood on Sunday, November 3rd. Despite her busy childhood, and how kids of stars are often exposed, she has said that she does not want that for either of her kids, and clearly stated that “It has nothing to do with whether I liked my childhood. I really did. But as a parent, that isn’t the childhood that I’d provide.”

    Drew Barrymore, along with her husband Will Kopelman, will be very excited to welcome their baby boy or girl into the world, and expand their family. Fans of the star can expect more gushing news about the pregnancy in the months to come, as she continues to adore her time as a mother, and telling the rest of the world about her experiences.

  • Jennifer Love Hewitt’s The Client List Is Cancelled

    Jennifer Love Hewitt, will have to start looking for work soon, after her drama The Client List just announced its cancellation. The Client List has been cancelled by the Lifetime network after two seasons on the air. She is an actress that has starred in several television shows and films.

    The Client List was a racy drama, and perhaps too racy for television, that centered on a massage therapist (Hewitt) who operated at a happy-ending massage parlor, trying to make ends meet after being left by her husband.

    The show finished its second season in June, and was based on the 2010 film of the same name. Hewitt also served as the executive producer on the series.

    The announcement of the show’s cancellation comes just months after a disagreement between Hewitt and the network. According to Deadline, she had asked about her fiancee playing the baby’s daddy in the show, in an interesting plot arc that the other producers and network did not seem to agree with.

    Many different storylines were analyzed and considered, but it seems that the decision to abort the show may be have been largely due to their disagreement about the show’s future.

    Jennifer Love Hewitt has previously starred in The Ghost Whisperer and Party of Five on television, and rocketed to stardom in the Holllywood life at a young age with her role in the horror film I Know What You Did Last Summer.

    Whether Jennifer Love Hewitt decides to go back to work soon or not, she will undoubtedly have her hands full, as she is also expecting a baby with her co-star on the show. News of her pregnancy with Brian Hallisay made headlines in June, and the couple are very excited about starting a family together. Talking about her future with Hallisay, Hewitt said “We’re so thrilled and happy to start a family.”

  • Actress Kerry Washington Pregnant

    Scandal star, Kerry Washington and San Francisco 49er cornerback hubby, Nnamdi Asomugha have very exciting news. The two are expecting their first child.

    It’s been all smiles for Washington and Asomugha since their recent secret marriage only four short months ago. Now, the newlyweds have a beautiful new baby to bring even more happiness to their lives.

    The wonderful news was exclusively revealed to Us Weekly. According to a close friend, Washington is four months pregnant.

    According to E! Online, the star has been trying to hide her pregnant belly on her hit political thriller show, Scandal. It’s been pretty easy to hide the little bump with jackets and heavier clothing, but what about this weekend? Washington is hosting SNL this Saturday, so I’m sure the baby bump will make it’s debut.

    “She had planned to wait longer because the pregnancy is being well hidden on Scandal with her trademark coats, but it will be pretty obvious on Saturday Night Live this Saturday,” a source explains. “So she decided to start telling people now.”

    Check out her SNL promos below.

  • Kristin Cavallari Feeling Loved After Announcement

    Kristin Cavallari is feeling the love after her big pregnancy announcement earlier this week. Her friends and fans, alike, have been pouring on the well-wishes pretty thick for this adorable couple and their admirable purpose.

    Cavallari, 26, married NFL quarterback Jay Cutler, 31, in June and two seem to be off to a fast start! This will be the second child for “The Hills” star and the Chicago Bears quarterback. Their son Camden was born just last year, but it has been no secret that the pair wanted to expand their family quickly.

    “We want to have a second sooner rather than later,” Cavallari told E! News last month. “We know we want another one close in age to Camden and we’re at the point where we’re both ready.”

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAB9sWV50KA

    According to ABC, her initial plan was to start trying to have another little bundle of joy right after Camden was six months old, but you know, things don’t always go as planned in motherhood, and she just “wasn’t ready”. I wouldn’t be either. Six months is still, sometimes, not sleeping all night!

    Now, with this second pregnancy in the works, Kristin Cavallari has her sights on sugar and spice, and everything nice! But…she won’t be disappointed if it’s another boy. “Obviously, I want a little girl, but if I had another boy I would be so excited as well,” she said. “I love having a boy. Either way, I’d be really, really happy.”

    Awwww.

  • Melissa Rycroft: Beautiful Angel Pregnant With Strickland’s 2nd Baby

    Is their a better way to enjoy life than singing, dancing, and being pregnant all the time?

    Ask Melissa Rycroft, and she will tell you…there is none. So what is this sweet Texan heartthrob up to lately? Well, you guessed it right, Melissa is pregnant again, with Tye Strickland’s second child.

    “Bachelor, DWTS Finalist & All-Star Champion, Co-Host Dick Clark’s Rocking NYE 2010, GMA, Author ‘My Reality’, ‘Melissa & Tye’..Most importantly: Wife and Mom :),”

    this is how Melissa describes herself on the 800-lb gorilla of social micro-blogging, and we couldn’t agree more. Husband and babies are the most important people in life, and the more little Rycroft-Stricklands prancing around the house, the merrier.

    The lithesome heartthrob from dancing with the stars was so excited to share the pregnancy news, that she even revealed the results of the home pregnancy test kit:

    “The dancing family is growing…We have a little bundle growing,” said Melissa, who is 30, and married to Strickland since 2009. Rycroft found love with her husband, an insurance agent, after being rejected by “Bachelor” Jason Mesnick. Melissa did not share her due date, but only hinted that it will be, “this spring, next season.”

    Melissa’s first baby, Ava, is two and a half years old, and shared in the joy with her parents:

    Watch Melissa, as she shows you how to perform the sizzling Foxtrot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uecl5_284lw
    With such a beautiful DNA, is there any wonder why Tye can’t get enough of Melissa. We wish the couple everlasting joy and many more little DWTS champs in years to come. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VH96I1Hn8QQ

  • Edyta Sliwinska, Former DWTS Pro, Pregnant With First Child

    For those who watch the dancing reality TV show Dancing With The Stars, I am sure it has been quite a while since the name “Edyta Sliwinska” has been mentioned, since she has not appeared on the show since season 10; however, Sliwinska has been making a lot of headlines lately since the announcement of the pregnancy of her first child with her husband and other Dancing With The Stars pro-dancer Alec Mazo.

    Edyta Sliwinska is a 32-year-old Poland-born ballroom dancer who fell in love with dancing at age 10 (Source: People Magazine), and she has been involved with Dancing With The Stars since the show’s first season in 2005.

    Later in the day, in a response to a tweet from Natalie Coughlin, a 12-time Olympic medalist (who also was on Dancing With The Stars as a celebrity dancer), Sliwinska exclaimed that she cannot wait to become a mom.

    On Friday (October 11th), Sliwinska discussed details of the baby with People Magazine and stated the following:

    I’m due in January and we are having a boy. We’ve been together for 13 years; married for six. We were both so ready for it and we’ve been planning on this for the past couple of years.”

  • 8 Month Pregnant Woman Weight-Lifting

    35-year-old, Lea-Ann Ellison, is pregnant with her third child. While most soon-to-be moms are taking it easy while being 8-months pregnant, Ellison is doing something that has everyone talking.

    Ellison is a CrossFit enthusiast and says that she has been doing it for over 2 years. The pictures, that have gone viral, show Ellison lifting 75-pound weights over her head while she is 8-months pregnant. It was reported that she has been known to lift nearly 190-pounds but has altered her regime to suit her pregnancy.

    The caption on the photo posted on CrossFit’s Facebook profile read: “8 months pregnant with baby number 3 and CrossFit has been my sanity. I have been CrossFitting for 2 1/2 years and … strongly believe that pregnancy is not an illness, but a time to relish in your body’s capabilities to kick ass.”

    According to the CrossFit Mom website, “CrossFit is a strength and intensity based fitness program. However, during pregnancy you want to concentrate on strength and keeping your body healthy, rather than the intensity.”

    “A woman’s overall health, including obstetric and medical risks, should be evaluated before prescribing an exercise program,” the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists’ guidelines say. “Generally, participation in a wide range of recreational activities appears to be safe during pregnancy; however, each sport should be reviewed individually for its potential risk.”

    The photos have sparked controversy and have received thousands of comments, both good and bad.

    Amanda Cinq-Mars commented on the photo saying: “This is actually sickening, I hope pregnant around the world do not do this kind of crap. I am a crossfit enthusiast but I DO NOT recommend this at all. Doctors always strongly suggest to not lift heavy because you can sever your placenta and cause major damage an early labor and it miscarriage …. Posting this picture goes people the wrong message that this is OKAY when it’s not!!!!”

    Stephanie Herrera also commented: “Sure you look and sound cool, but we’re only human…why would you risk hurting your baby just to stay in shape? That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. It’s not a time to kick ass, it’s a time to be protective of your unborn child. Normally I’m for crossfit, but this doesn’t make any sense to me”

    There were many people, including doctors, that came to Ellison’s defense.

    Ellison is not letting the negative comments bring her down. She responded to the “haters” by saying: “I want to thank everyone for their kind and supportive responses! Haters will hate and it’s ok. My life is not their life thank goodness! Lol! Again, thank you! It means so much to feel this much love from a community I adore.”

  • Kim Fields Is Pregnant Again, It’s A Boy

    Kim Fields Is Pregnant Again, It’s A Boy

    Kim Fields had a profound impact on kids’ lives when she played Tootie on The Facts of Life. Now she has the opportunity to play a major role in her own children’s lives, including one child that’s on the way.

    On The Real yesterday, Kim Fields announced to the world that she was pregnant. She confirmed on the daytime talk show that the new baby is a boy, and she even has a name for him – Quincy Xavier. Take that, Prince George.

    The circumstances surrounding Fields’ pregnancy are somewhat interesting. She says that she didn’t even know she was pregnant at first. In fact, she thought that she was pre-menopausal at first. She then went to the doctor after catching a stomach bug, and the doctor said that she was two months pregnant.

    This latest baby is Fields’ second baby. She previously gave birth to a son named Christopher six years ago. He’s reportedly excited about having a little brother, but I’m sure that will change as Quincy grows up. It’s going to be hard to compete with a brother who has such an awesome name.

    Fields is also incredibly excited about having another kid, and even more so after coming off of two painful miscarriages. She says that the impending arrival of Quincy Xavier makes her feel very blessed and that she couldn’t have gotten through the last two failed pregnancies without the help of her friends, family and God.

    After the announcement, she took to Twitter to thank her fans for their support:

  • Beyoncé Pregnant? Sources Say “Yes”

    Beyoncé Pregnant? Sources Say “Yes”

    In an unexpected end to a week of speculation and rumor, E! News claims to have confirmed that pop star Beyoncé Knowles is, in fact, pregnant. The site cites unnamed “multiple sources” in its confirmation of the celebrity pregnancy.

    If true, the child would be the second for Beyoncé and her husband, rap producer Jay-Z. The couple already have one daughter, named Blue Ivy. Before their daughter was born, Beyoncé also suffered a miscarriage, about which she wrote a sad song.

    As rumors of the pregnancy heated up early this week, an unnamed source denied the claims, stating that it wouldn’t make sense for Beyoncé at this time. The singer is currently on the European half of her world tour, titled “The Mrs. Carter Show.” The show continues in North America throughout June and July.

    On Tuesday Beyoncé cancelled a scheduled show in Antwerp, Belgium. At the time, reports held that the show was cancelled due to Beyoncé’s “dehydration and exhaustion.” The cancellation further fueled rumors that the singer might be pregnant and possibly experiencing morning sickness.

    Beyoncé has since issued an apology for the missed concert:

  • Pregnant Congresswoman Announces Via Facebook

    Jamie Herrera Beutler, the Republican congresswoman from Washington’s 3rd district, has announced that she is pregnant. The 34-year-old Beutler was elected to congress in 2010, making her the second youngest female in the current U.S. Congress. She is married to Daniel Beutler, and the couple do not yet have any children.

    In a sign of the times, Beutler announced that she is expecting on her Facebook page. She stated that she and her husband are “blessed” and “excited” to be able to give their parents grandchildren.

    The Facebook note, in full:

    A few years ago when I was newly married and recently elected to Congress, I remember fielding some speculation as to whether or not I was “expecting.” Well… my husband Dan and I are thrilled to announce that this fall, there will be yet another person in Southwest Washington who will – for their entire adult life – get to explain “No, no, it’s pronounced Butler.” That’s right – we’re expecting a baby!

    Not only are we blessed to begin building our family, we’re also pretty excited to be giving Dan’s parents, Paul and Patti Beutler of Salem, their first grandchild and to be giving my parents, Armando and Candice Herrera of Camas, a grandchild to visit only a few miles away. I am thankful for the close proximity to both sets of grandparents because like any new parents, I’m sure we’ll need the help!

    Thank you for your thoughts, prayers and encouragement.

    Jaime and Daniel

    Beutler isn’t the first congresswoman to be pregnant, though the event is rare. Eight other women have become pregnant during their terms in office. Most recently, another Washington congresswoman, Cathy McMorris Rodgers, gave birth to a daughter in December 2010, making her the first congresswoman to give birth twice in office. Her first time giving birth in office was in April 2007. Similar to Beutler, Rodgers also announced her pregnancy through her Facebook page.

  • Reese Witherspoon Pregnant: Photos Show Off Baby Bump

    News recently broke that actress Reese Witherspoon appears to be pregnant after a year of trying with new husband, Jim Toth.

    The mother of two–daughter Ava and son Deacon are the products of her marriage to Ryan Phillippe–has reportedly been trying for a third to no avail since her 2011 marriage to Toth, and though recent photos of her show a small belly, that’s enough to spark rumors of a pregnancy for the usually slim actress.

    Us Weekly reported that according to a source, Witherspoon is about 12 weeks pregnant and is “incredibly happy”. The “This Means War” star celebrates her 36th birthday this week.
