Naomi Watts & Liev Schreiber Expecting?

By: Shannon Gossage

Watts’ rep has not confirmed or denied that she is expecting, but Page Six reported last Wednesday that the actress was pregnant. A rep for Escada, which designed Watts’ Oscar gown, reportedly spilled the beans in a press release. Part of the press release read, "The ESCADA gown set off her most precious new asset – the baby she is expecting with longtime boyfriend Liev Schreiber." People.com posted the following on its Website, "Did a fashion publicist just out Naomi Watts as a mom-to-be?" And said, "What a way to spill the beans of a bump."

Watts was wearing a lemon colored gown that had a maroon sash that appeared to be covering her stomach. She seemed to be sporting a slight bump giving heat to the pregnancy rumors. Watts and Schreiber began seeing each other in April 2005 and have been pretty steady since. There were brief break-up talk surrounding the couple in March 2006, but they quickly quashed the rumors.

He then went on to marry actress Michelle Williams. If Watts is pregnant, this will be her first child. Watts previously dated actor Heath Ledger despite being 11- years his senior. They met on the set of Ned Kelly in 2003 and ended their relationship in May 2004. He then began dating actress Michelle Williams after meeting her on the set of Brokeback Mountain. Ledger and Williams welcomed their first child, Matilda Rose, in October 2005.
