I m pregnant and expecting third baby: Cate Blancheet

The actress, who sparked rumors she was expecting her third child with husband Andrew Upton last month, admits she is thrilled to be with child again.

Speaking at the Sydney premiere of her latest film "Elizabeth: The Golden Age", Cate said on Saturday, "Yes, yes, we're expecting a baby in April, which is very exciting."

Cate said she does not know whether she is expecting a boy or girl yet. The 38-year-old Australian star and her playwright husband already have two sons, five-year-old Dashiell and Roman, three.

Cate first sparked pregnancy rumors after she was photographed sporting what has now been proved to be a baby bump while leaving New York's Guggenheim Museum on October 27.

Cate then kept her stomach hidden under a spectacular sequined dress at the UK premiere of "Elizabeth: The Golden Age" at the London Film Festival On October 23.

The actress' pregnancy news comes as she and her spouse prepare to begin their three-year residence as joint artist directors of the Sydney Theatre Company in January.
