Reese Witherspoon Talks Pregnancy, Excitement Surrounding Baby #3

Hollywood actress Reese Witherspoon has finally spoken out and officially confirmed her third pregnancy.

Though multiple reports and pictures — from as far back as March — have seemingly announced the happy news for her, the Oscar-winning actress publicly acknowledged her growing tummy during An Evening With Reese Witherspoon hosted by the Gene Siskel Film Centre in Chicago on Saturday (June 23).

Speaking to a reporter after she was honored with a special acting award at the event, the Legally Blonde star admitted,

“Frankly I’m feeling very round tonight. I’m always feeling like I’d like to eat everything in sight!”

Although Witherspoon, who is married to Hollywood talent agent Jim Toth, wouldn’t discuss baby names or the baby’s gender, she did say she’s “very excited” about welcoming a third child, which USA Today reports is expected in late summer or early fall.

Reese, 36, also admitted to the Chicago Sun Times that she’s planning on taking a break from acting once baby No. 3 arrives.

Talking about The Devil’s Knot, a movie the star actress is currently filming with Colin Firth, Witherspoon revealed:

“It’s about a crime that occurred in 1993. It happened in Arkansas, and it’s what I’d say is a very American story. And, after I finish that, I’m going to take a little time off – and go have a baby!”

Access Hollywood reports that Witherspoon’s new baby will be her first child with second husband Jim Toth, who she married in March 2011.

Reese was previously married to actor Ryan Phillippe, with whom she has two kids, 12-year-old daughter Ava and eight-year-old son Deacon.
