Like, not figuratively, “maybe down the road” or anything, literally. These two are literally going to have a baby!

From Starpulse:

Nick Lachey and his new bride Vanessa Minnillo are expecting their first child less than a year after they wed.

The ex-98 Degrees star and his TV presenter wife got married in a secret ceremony in July last year and they announced on TV on Monday that Minnillo is pregnant.

Lachey tells “Live! With Kelly,” “She was in New York and I was in the Bahamas. She went to the store and got a pregnancy test and it came back positive. We’re having a baby!… This is the one thing that more than any other I’ve looked forward to, and it’s overwhelming.”

Lachey said the couple has already discussed a name for the child, adding, “If it’s a girl, I think it might be Sophia. If it’s a boy, I’m not sure.”

He also joked his wife’s baby bump was initially blamed on too many calories, saying, “It just looked like she had eaten a really big burrito for a while… She loves, she craves Mexican food right now. She could eat a burrito a day so you can imagine what our house smells like right about now.”

The baby is due later this year.

Awesome! I mean, can you imagine what it’d be like if Jessica Simpson wasn’t pregnant at this juncture of her life and she heard this news? After Tony Romo being pregnant and having babies and what not with his new girlfriend or wife or whatever she is these days? Man. So glad Jess beat Nick to the punch on this one, because if she hadn’t, it’d be some pretty uncomfortable circumstances when she and Nick rekindle their romance thirty or forty years down the road and air all of their past errors on a redux of Newlyweds. Thank God for small favors, you know?

Oh, and congrats to Nick and Vanessa! Looking forward to seeing that burgeoning baby bump on Winter Wipeout (I’m not the only one who does watch that show, right?).
