Actress Keri Russell, who some members of The Hollywood Gossip staff used to have a crush on before she fell off the face of the earth about five years ago now, is pregnant!
The actress and her fiancé, contractor Shane Deary, will welcome their first child this summer, according to Russell’s representative, Jill Fritzo, who must have a lot of free time at the office these days.
Russell and Deary have been dating for several years and were engaged to be married last year.
Like Brangelina, no wedding date has been set.
Speaking of pregnant, former WB stars who just got married, Amanda Peet must be ready to pop pretty soon.
Russell played the title role of Felicity Porter in the hit WB series (if that’s not a little oxymoronic, we don’t know what is) from 1998-2002. In 2006, she appeared opposite Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible 3.
Her newest movie, the indie romantic comedy Waitress, was directed by the late Adrienne Shelly, and screens next week at the Sundance Film Festival.
Congratulations to Keri and Shane, and we look forward to their offspring being among the beautiful celebrity babies to be born in 2007.
