For whatever reason, the tabloids are warring over the state of Fergie and Josh Duhamel’s marriage this week. The first story concerns the Fergian womb, which has been the subject of speculation as recently as August when its owner mysteriously glowed while going on hiatus for her band, The Black Eyed Peas. Now, the rumors are back courtesy of Fergie herself striking some suspicious poses on the red carpet of the New Year’s Eve premiere. Further, an In Touch insider who claims that Josh is “dying to be a dad.” Hence this story:
When Fergie showed up to support husband Josh Duhamel at the premiere of New Year’s Eve in LA on December 5 wearing a tight-fitting dress, she sparked new rumors that she’s expecting. “She was looking thicker than usual and rubbing her stomach,” a witness tells In Touch. “She also did a lot of over-the-shoulder poses so you didn’t see her midsection.” A baby would be the culmination of a dream for he 36-year-old singer. “She took some time off from working to get pregnant and prepare for a baby, but was having a tough time,” an insider tells In Touch. “Luckily, Josh has been supportive.” In fact, Josh gushes that “it just makes it a little more fun around the house” with Fergie home! And if now is the time to start a family, they’re ready: “That is definitely part of the plan,” Fergie told In Touch at the launch of The Black Eyed Peas Experience game. “And when that happens, it will be a blessing.”

Basically, anytime a female celebrity places a hand upon her stomach, this automatically means that she’s with child, right? So that particular posture could mean nothing. As for her over-the-shoulder poses, I’m just going to assume that Fergie likes showing off her booty:
Meanwhile, Star puts in its two cents with a different story about how Fergie is partying her ass off, and Josh is really pissed off about it:
Fergie is a rock star, and sometimes she parties like one — much to the dismay of hubby Josh Duhamel, Star has learned. “The other night at an industry event, Fergie seemed visibly drunk,” an insider tells Star. The singer, 36, is no stranger to partying and boozing for a good time, but when she does, Josh “gets so annoyed with her when she’s like that. Josh gets embarrassed,” explains the insider. “He finds it really annoying. He’ll roll his eyes and look unhappy.” It seems more than anything, the actor, 39, is concerned about appearances. “Josh is aware of the attention on him. Having a wife who seems drunk mortifies him.”

So which story, if either, is true? Each of them negates the other, so it’s a tough call. Josh doesn’t seem like the type to freak out over his lady knocking back a few drinks, assuming that she’s not pregnant. If anything, you’d think he’d freak out over the fact that his wife’s face is continually morphing. That has to be strange to deal with, right?
Who knows though — Fergie could very well be pregnant. After all, Josh does seem rather, uh, enthused about her midsection in this photo:
Then again, when her stomach is in plain view, she doesn’t really look pregnant at all. Maybe it’s just a case of a little weight gain (although she looks great) and awkward posing on the New Year’s Eve red carpet.
