Twins on the Way for Numbers Star Diane Farr

Published by admin under Celebrity Pregnancy

Pregnancy seems to be quite the epidemic in Hollywood and multiples are no exception. Actress/writer/former model Diane Farr, 38, and husband, entertainment marketing executive Seung Yong Chung, 37, have twins on the way. The couple’s newest additions will join their big brother Beckett Mancuso Chung, named after Irish poet and playwright Samuel Beckett. Beckett was quite possibly conceived during the couple’s honeymoon, after Diane and Seung were married on June 24, 2006. He just celebrated his first birthday on March 16th. The twins are due to arrive late this summer, not long after the couple’s 2nd wedding anniversary, although Diane hasn’t shared her exact due date.

Diane has starred as FBI agent Megan Reeves on CBS’s Numb3rs since 2005, although she has no plans for renewing her contract. She will be leaving Numb3rs at the end of the season to prepare for the birth of her babies-on-the-way and work on an up-coming TV series with Rescue Me writer Peter Tolan. Diane played the role of firefighter Laura Miles on Rescue Me from 2004-2005. The search for Diane’s replacement on Numb3rs is already under way, according to reports.

While still in college, Diane became the youngest woman ever to be crowned “Miss New York”. She is well known for co-hosting MTV’s popular relationship advice show Loveline in the 90s with Dr. Drew and Adam Corolla, her role as detective Jan Fendrich on The Job, as well as her recurring roles on The Drew Carey Show and Roswell. On top of everything else, Diane became a published author when her first book, The Girl Code: The Secret Language of Single Women, came out in 2001.

Spring is Baby Time! April Celebrity Babies have Arrived!

Published by admin under Celebrity Pregnancy

Fragrant flower scents, pink and white blossoms covering the trees, blue sky, growing grass and baby animals are just a few of the first signs that spring is in the air. New celebrity babies are yet another! Many special Hollywood arrivals have been announced within the past couple of weeks. These celebrities have more to celebrate than the coming of springtime, they have new additions to their family!

A Boy for Cate Blanchett and Andrew Upton: Ignatius Martin

Actress Cate Blanchett, 38, and writer/director husband Andrew Upton, 41, welcomed another beautiful baby boy into their growing family. The couple’s third son, Ignatius Martin Upton, came into the world on Sunday, April 13th in Sydney, Australia. Baby Ignatius arrived weighing a little over 8 pounds. He was thought to be slightly overdue, although Cate never publicly shared her exact due date. Ignatius joins proud big brothers Dashiell (6) and Roman (who will be 4 on April 23rd). Cate is most commonly known for her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth I in Elizabeth: The Golden Age, which earned her many awards including a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama. She also co-starred in the ABC drama Heartland and played Galadriel, the elf queen, in the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

A Boy for Kerry Katona and Mark Croft: Maxwell Mark

MTV reality show star and former Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona, 27, and husband Mark Croft welcomed their new baby boy, Maxwell Mark, on Friday, April 11th. Max was born quite swiftly at 5:42 pm. He weighed only 5 lbs, 4oz, since he arrived five weeks before his due date. Kerry was admitted to the hospital on the 9th for premature labor after her water broke. Doctors tried their best to stop the contractions, but ended up inducing on the 11th. Kerry’s pregnancy with Max was anything but uneventful. At the beginning, Kerry thought she may have miscarried and later on, she experienced problems with low iron. In addition to all that, rumors of alleged drug and alcohol use during pregnancy abounds. Kerry denies these allegations, although she makes no effort to hide her on-going smoking habit. Filming of Kerry’s reality show Crazy in Love was suspended for a while last month after she checked into a London rehab facility for her bipolar di sorder. Footage from the labor/delivery is set to air on an up-coming episode. Max joins sisters Heidi (13 months), Lilly-Sue (5), Molly (6 ½) and Keeley(6). Heidi is the only child the couple has together- in addition to Max- and she also arrived early by 4 weeks. Lilly-Sue and Molly are Kerry’s daughters from her first marriage to Brian McFadden and Keeley is Mark’s daughter from a previous relationship.

A Girl for Elisabeth Röhm and Ron Wooster: Easton August

Actress Elisabeth Röhm, 34, and fiancé Ron Wooster, 40, had their first baby, a girl, on Thursday, April 10th. The couple’s new daughter, Easton August Anthony, came into the world at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angels, CA, weighing 6 lbs, 13 oz and measured 18 inches. She was born 2 ½ weeks early, at 37 weeks along. Elisabeth’s 35th birthday, April 28th, was Easton’s due date. Elizabeth and Ron had their baby’s name chosen well before delivery. A rep for Elisabeth explained Easton’s name came to the new mom in a dream. The couple planned to name her Grace prior to the dream, then changed it to Easton. The name “Anthony” is Ron’s other surname, according to their representative. Playing the role of assistant district attorney, Serena Southerlyn, on NBC’s Law & Order gained Elisabeth fame. She had a recurring role as Detective Kate Lockley on Angel, as well. The proud new parents have wedding plans in the future, possibly this fall.

A Boy for Robyn Lively and Bart Johnson: Wyatt Blake

Actress Robyn Lively, 36, and husband, actor Bart Johnson, 37, were blessed with a baby boy this month. The couple named their new son Wyatt Blake, with his middle name being after his aunt, Blake Lively, who is also an actress. Blake stars as Serena in the TV series Gossip Girl. This makes three children for Robyn and Bart. Wyatt’s two older siblings are: Baylen and Kate. Robyn is best known for starring in the 1989 movie Teen Witch as the character Louise Miller. Bart played the role of Coach Jack Bolton (father of Troy Bolton, played by Zac Efron) in the Disney Channel Original Movies High School Musical and High School Musical 2. No word yet on Baby Wyatt’s date of birth, weight or length.

Jodie Sweetin and Cody Herpin Have Baby Girl, Zoie Laurel May

Published by admin under Celebrity Pregnancy

sweetin.jpgActress Jodie Sweetin, 26, and husband, motion pictures transportation driver Cody Herpin, 30, are celebrating the birth of their first baby, a daughter. As anyone can imagine, life is pretty hectic at the moment for the brand new parents, but despite that, the proud new father shared their baby’s full name exclusively with Sure Baby, Zoie Laurel May Herpin

Baby Zoie arrived on Saturday afternoon, April 12th- almost a full week past her due date of April 6th. The couple’s baby girl weighed 8 lbs, 7 oz and measured 21 inches. Cody told Sure Baby,

“She [Jodie] had to do an emergency c-section .. We finally had her yesterday, but Jodie was in labor since Thursday. It was 40 some hours.“

According to a representative for Jodie,

“She and her husband and family are absolutely thrilled and in love with baby Zoie.”

Even though we’re all very anxious to see photos of their beautiful new baby girl, we won’t be seeing any just yet. That is, until they come out in People. Like the first photos of Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s twins, exclusive rights to Jodie Sweetin and Cody Herpin’s baby Zoie have been secured by People Magazine. But, we don’t need to see photos to be sure Zoie’s perfectly adorable!

Jodie starred on Full House for 8 seasons, playing the middle daughter, Stephanie Tanner. Cody worked in the transportation department for Resident Evil: Extinction, as well as other movies. The couple was married last July 14th in Las Vegas.

A very big congratulations, Jodie and Cody! We hope Jodie’s getting some much-needed rest after such an incredibly long labor and subsequent C-section!
