Us Weekly: Reese Witherspoon 12-Weeks Pregnant With Third Baby
March 21, 2012 by Hollywoodite
It’s claimed on the cover of the March 21 issue of Us Weekly that Reese Witherspoon is pregnant. Which is really annoying if she’s not, since she’s the subject of incessant pregnancy rumours and she should have about 20 babies by now (or she’s been pregnant for years).
Seemingly guilty of little, except being habitually-paunchy, the tabloid claims Witherspoon and second husband Jim Toth are expecting their first child together; her third overall, including Ava, 12, and Deacon, 8, from her first marriage to Ryan Phillippe.
Witherspoon is on the cover, despite the tabloid’s inability to seek confirmation from her rep. It’s more supposition from sources and observations that she’s been paunchier than usual the past month.
Moreover, Us Weekly is notorious for lying about wombs and hook-ups; they’re a broken clock when it comes to guesswork about people’s love lives. They point at a “bump” and hope there’s a baby in there, but certain people in Witherspoon’s camp seem to think she’s pregnant. Yet it’s still nothing short of puzzling that a thin, sourced report landed the cover (it’ll be official only if/ when a rep confirms, not before, although the sources admit prematurely-outing the pregnancy for some reason).
The cover reads: “Reese Is Pregnant: After two-years of trying, the mom of two is ‘incredibly happy’ to start over with the husband she always dreamed of.”
When Reese Witherspoon turns 36 this Thursday March 22, she’ll definitely have something extra to celebrate: A baby on the way. As multiple sources confirm exclusively in the new Us Weekly, the Oscar-winning actress is pregnant with her third child, and her first with second-husband Jim Toth, who she wed last March at her $7 million ranch in Ojai, Calif. after over a year of dating.
“Reese is right around 12 weeks,” one source explains, adding that the [actress] is “not planning to announce it.”
The baby-to-be will join older siblings Ava, 12, and Deacon, 8, Witherspoon’s kids with first husband Ryan Phillippe, from whom she split in 2006 after 7 years of marriage.
Pals of Witherspoon and high-powered CAA agent Toth, 41, aren’t shocked by the happy news. “Reese and Jim have been trying to get pregnant,” one [friend] says.
And now that the A-list couple are breaking the news to a small circle of friends, their baby joy is obvious. “The timing is right,” one source says. “She’s so happy!” and plans [to take] “time off.” – via Us Weekly Magazine.
