Web Abuzz By Baldwin Baby

I still well remember my mid-afternoon perambulation with a producer buddy when we happened upon a swelling throng of paparazzi and onlookers by the St. Patrick's Old Cathedral last June. When we asked what all the hubbub was about, we were told Alec Baldwin was getting married inside.

"Finally!" I grabbed my friend's shoulder to say, as we continued on our merry jaunt to some place less claustrophobic.

Little more than six months later, the Net is awash with actual excitement over the fact that - yes, indeed - Baldwin and blushing bride Hilaria Thomas are expecting to add to the already tumescent realm of Baldwin's blemishing this carbuncled world of ours.

What at first was reported merely as web rumor - oh, those stars do love us to speculate! - by the likes of Access Hollywood ("Alec Baldwin & Wife Hilaria Not Addressing Pregnany Rumors") and omg! ("Are Alec Baldwin and Hilaria Thomas Expecting First Child Together?") became at least a little more "Rock" (tee-hee) hard when In Touch "gushed" this morning their "exclusive" revelation that a "good friend" of Thomas' confessed the young yoga instructor cum Baldwin wife is truly gravid.

Despite the fact that other news sources continue to use ambiguous phrases such as "reportedly" and "allegedly" to frantically get the word out about the hot buzz item, In Touch's private source continued, "They are both so excited and Alec is so in love with her... She says she is so in love with Alec and he tells all her friends that she is the best thing that has ever happened to him."

Since hitting the Web last night, the news has yet to be absolutely confirmed [at the time of this writing] by Baldwin, Thomas, or Baldwin publicist Matthew Hiltzic who had this to say, "Our response to baby speculation over the past 18 months has remained the same - when/if @ABFalecbaldwin and @HilariaBaldwin have news they want to share, they will share it. Until then we have no comment."

Some outlets such as SheKnows.com is already making a case for recent photos of Thomas "showing off" her "baby bump," but it remains hard to believe that anyone who has made physical fitness her vocation (and is still under thirty) would be so overt about any "bump" before letting it be known for certain it's filled by baby and not cheese or chocolate.

Regardless of Baldwin's infamous ranting and raving on the phone with daughter Ireland a few years back, he last year told Piers Morgan, "Have I thought about having more kids? Oh sure, that would be great, that would be heaven, that would be fantastic."

Perhaps then the next mid-day stroll I take will be met not by a crash of celebrity-obsessed nutters, but rather the strident cries through a hospital window of a young yoga mama popping out the scion to the Donaghy legacy.
