There was a story earlier in the month that Naomi Watts is pregnant with her second child with longterm partner, Liev Schreiber. US Weekly reported that she was in her second trimester but didn’t cite a source and there was no confirmation from her reps. Watts looked a little pregnant in recent pictures but her top was blowing out and it was hard to tell. New photos have come out showing the 39 year-old Australian actress looking undeniably pregnant, so we can assume the news is true. She has also been wearing what looks like an engagement ring on her left hand.
Watts has a recent interview with UK Newspaper The Times in which she refused to comment on whether she was pregnant or not, but the article mentions as an aside that her publicist did confirm her pregnancy. As for whether she’s planning to get married, Watts said “I never say never, but I’m not desperate to get married. I’m not someone who has always dreamt of a wedding day. I’m more disbelieving.”
Congratulations to Naomi and Liev! They also have son Alexander Peter, who turned one last Friday.
I love Watt’s dress and she looks so casually chic in that outfit.
US Weekly is reporting that Naomi Watts is pregnant and that she’s in her second trimester. They just say she’s expecting but that her rep didn’t confirm it, and they don’t even mention a source. It’s possible they’re judging based on recent pictures, it’s hard to tell:
Naomi Watts, 39, has entered her second trimester with her second baby, Us Weekly reports in its newest issue, on newsstands now.
But don’t expect a huge announcement: When she was pregnant last year with her first child, her beau, Liev Schreiber, 40, didn’t confirm it until he casually told Conan O’Brien, “Yes, I’m going to be a dad.”
The couple — who met on the set of the 2006 drama The Painted Veil and have homes in NYC and L.A. — welcomed son Alexander in July 2007…
Watts’ rep tells Us she doesn’t comment on her client’s personal life.
Over the weekend Watts was photographed wearing what looked like an engagement ring. Right before her first child, Alexander, now one, was born, Her boyfriend Liev Schreiber told the press that they were engaged. He later claimed that he was joking and many people thought it was cruel that he said it in the first place. It sounded to me like he really wanted to be engaged but that they made a decision to either wait or keep it private.
If this is true, congratulations to Watts and Schreiber. They’ve very admirably tried to keep their personal life private. Naomi let the paparazzi take the first photos of Alexander and chose not to cash in with a valuable magazine spread. These two are sure to try and keep their wedding quiet if this is true and I wonder if they’re planning to marry before the maybe-baby arrives.
Naomi Watts is shown on 6/27/08 in the belted dress and on 6/25/08 out with Liev and Alexander. She is also shown with Alexander on 6/28/08, and you can clearly see her gorgeous ring. She does look like she’s pregnant but it’s hard to tell with what she’s wearing.

Micah’s commentary on the fashion and style of the celebrities at the “Trump International Hotel and Tower Dubai at The Park Avenue Plaza” on 6/23/08 is below.
Heidi Klum:
I think if you’re married to Seal, than you shouldn’t be wearing it!
If only 2007 Christie Brinkley looked as much like 1984 Christie Brinkley as 2008 Heidi Klum does! KFC has bigger breasts than she does in that top!
Demi Moore:
“A” Your bag should match your shoes, not your hair. “B” Those shoes go with that dress as much as Dick Cheney goes with target shooting. “C” I get that the hair is supposed to be a throw back to Veronica Lake, but frankly she should just throw it back. And “D” That dress looks like a failed attempt at hanging herself using her satin sheets.
Melania Trump:
Judging by that look on her face, she should change her name to Melania STUMPED!
She’s a blonde dye job away from being cast as the live action Smurfette.
Is it me, or does her eye shadow have as many colors going on as his hair does?
Naomi Watts:
Okay let’s REALLY break this down: Why would someone dress like a flapper waitress who’s into foot bondage and then not take a single minute to do anything with her hair, or let alone complete the ensemble by putting on a sequin headband with a feather in it? WATT was she thinking? I’ll tell you what she was thinking, she was thinking “Maybe if don’t do anything with my hair then they’ll focus on how I look like Nicole Kidman without any make-up on, instead of focusing on the fact that I look like the runner up in the ‘Little Miss England Pageant’ after the talent competition!” SHE’S WEARING A SEQUIN DICKEY! I guess she figured if they weren’t gonna roll out the red carpet, then she wasn’t going to dress for it.
Naomi Watts was on Jimmy Kimmel last night and she told a cute story about how when she was flying first class on a 14 hour flight her seven month-old son, Alexander, was screaming for a full 40 minutes. She said people were standing up glaring at her, and that they were probably pissed because they spent 30-40 grand on a flight and had to listen to her baby crying. Watts she solved it by putting him “on the boob,” and Kimmel quipped that the boob would calm any guy down.
Kimmel asked Watts to name all the places that little Alexander has been so far and she listed off the countries, including the US, Canada, Australia, Lithuania, Germany and Italy, but said she wasn’t proud that she had to travel so much. Watts then said that she has a great nanny, Carmen, and wanted to say hi to her on the air. I thought that was really nice of her to acknowledge that she has help. Then she joked that Carmen told her she has a big ass:
She’s very helpful and she’s very good, but she calls it like it is and today she told me I had a big ass…
Do you think that’s too much, do you think I should fire her? She just said you had a big ass? She said it in English or maybe there was a translation thing? Why would she say that to you?
Because I do have a big ass. She’s got no ass. So she always just says things like that. You know what I’d do? Just cut a dollar per hour off her pay. It’s not drastic, but you let her know that’s not acceptable.
Do you think I’ve got a big ass? [Gets up and shows Kimmel her ass, shakes it] No I don’t think you’ve got a big ass… you’ve got almost no ass. Is your nanny anorexic by any chance?
No, she’s got a big gut. She’s not at home with the baby right now? [Naomi laughs]
[Transcribed from video of Naomi Watts’ appearance on Jimmy Kimmel, 3/11/08]
Watts was on to promote her new film, Funny Games, which is an English-language remake of a German film about a family on vacation who get taken hostage and tortured by two sadistic sociopaths. She told Kimmel that the film was a commentary on violence on screen, which the director strives to make the audience conscious of. It been called “an intellectual study of the horror genre,” and “forceful, unforgettable, and thought-provoking.” Critic Eric Snider says that “The purpose of Funny Games is to provoke and disturb the audience. It does this so well that you may not be able to watch it.” The film is out in limited released in the US on March 14.
Naomi Watts is shown on Bondi Beach on February 18th, and I would bet that’s her nanny Carmen with her. It sounds like she was joking with the big ass comment. Thanks to Splash News for these pictures.
Maxim magazine has released a list of the ‘Hottest Pregnant Women, Ever’. Which seems a big call as, in order for the species to continue, women have to keep on making babies. Rather adorably, my husband emailed me this list, saying I should be on it. This was very sweet, particularly since I spent my whole pregnancy with bloodshot eyes from vomiting. Although I do wonder why the Maxim webpage isn’t blocked, what is he doing at work looking at this?
Looking at the pictures, I’m guessing that most of these women spent their pregnancies with a personal stylist maintaining their sexiness, which is maybe how it should be for all pregnant women’s self esteem. Could we get some kind of government assistance for that?

Uma Thurman’s breast were on full display last night in a gauzy draped black Valentino dress that did little more than shield her from the wind. She chose the daring outfit for the Swarovski Fashion Rocks event, which she co-hosted. When you’re 37 and the roles aren’t coming in you’ve got to kick it up a notch and I think she pulled it off.
Also on the red carpet were Kate Moss in a a Swarovski studded flapper dress she designed herself for Top Shop. It is estimated to be worth $80k and will be auctioned off on eBay for The Princes Trust if Courtney Love didn’t manage to ruin it.
Lily Allen wore a questionable navy blue Chanel gown with an empire waist that didn’t flatter her newly slender figure, but she looked presentable.
Donatella Versace and Iggy Pop personified rock and rock meets fashion with their weathered faces and kick ass style.
Claudia Schiffer was matronly in a gold pencil skirt and poofy black top accented by a big gold belt.
Naomi Watts showed off her amazing post-baby physique in a gorgeous baby blue strapless gown.
Joss Stone shows the self-determination that has ruined her music career by pairing a plain bright pink Calvin Klein dress with white ankle heels.
Heather Graham was lovely but looked like she was trying too hard in a white sleeveless dress that was just a little too low cut. She should have used Uma’s strategy and picked something see through instead.
Thanks to WENN for these photos and The Daily Mail for some help figuring out the dress designers. I included a blow up of Kate Moss’ face because she just looks so trashy to me. Uma may be showing nip but she does it with grace.
On Sunday Naomi Watts, Liev Schreiber, their son Alexander Pete Schreiber, who will be four weeks old on Wednesday, and their nanny went out for lunch at Malibu restaurant Taverna Tony’s. They looked kind of annoyed going into the restaurant, but then at some point before they left Liev came out by himself and went off on the paparazzi, chasing one guy to his car and hitting it. Naomi then came out and tried to calm Liev down. It seems like word got around that Liev and Naomi were there with their newborn son and the photographers started gathering outside while they were eating, annoying Liev, who is probably sleep deprived and at the end of his rope. It’s hard enough to go out with a new baby without having to deal with hoards of paparazzi.
The cops were called to try and stave off the photographers, but because it was a public street there was nothing they could do. As they left Naomi and Liev looked super annoyed and Naomi even flipped off photographers. Here are the descriptions of the photo sets from Splash News:
Naomi Watts and boyfriend Liev Schreiber arrive at Taverna Tony’s Restaurant in Malibu with new baby Alexander Pete in tow. Liev seems to be finished with giving the paparazzi shots of the baby as he went ballistic, chasing and assaulting the photographers. Naomi had to come out of the restaurant to retrieve Liev and stop him from his rampage.
Liev Schreiber, fiance of Naomi Watts, loses his cool as photographers take pictures of him and his family on a busy Malibu street. The actor raced into the middle of the road, hit a photographer’s car and chased one snapper away. The new Dad had arrived at popular restaurant Taverna Tony’s with his new son and Naomi before chasing the media away. The police were later called but could not help Schreiber as the snappers were on a public street.
We went out for sushi with my son when he was four weeks old. Newborns sleep a lot and we had a window of maybe an hour when we could enjoy our meal. Then my son woke up and we had to get out of there and make sure he was fed and happy. It was stressful in that we kept worrying that he would wake up and we would have to leave. We didn’t have anyone with us to help out, though.
This was probably the first time Liev and Naomi have been out with their son for dinner and you can see how Liev would get annoyed. Maybe they feel like prisoners in their beautiful home considering how much photographers must stalk them. You can tell they weren’t expecting it either, because they’re not dressed up or anything.
Still, Liev should work on his temper and on coming up with ways to foil photographers, like using decoy cars or driving farther out of town. If you’re a celebrity and you want to live near Hollywood, and go out to eat or shop there you can forget about having any kind of privacy, especially when you have a beautiful new baby.
Naomi was also seen out earlier on Sunday strolling along the beach with friends in Malibu, where she attended a small get together at Jon Favreau’s beach house. It’s unknown if Liev or little Alexander were there with her as there are no pictures of them.
Unlike Britney Spears or Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, who kept their latest respective babies under wraps for months, Naomi Watts and her beau Liev Schrieber were not afraid to let their newborn son be photographed. Two week old Alexander Pete Schreiber was seen with a smiling and happy Naomi and Liev out on a trip to the post office on Friday.
As two star parents, they can earn a million or more for exclusive photos of the tot, but they seemed happy and comfortable to give the paparazzi a glimpse ahead of any photo spread they might have planned. You have to respect that, and it’s refreshingly normal.
Commentors on I’m Not Obsessed note that Naomi looks great and that she must have been “all baby.”
On Saturday Naomi and Liev hung out with expectant couple Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fischer. Sacha and Liev worked out together and were seen hitting up a sporting goods store ahead of time. Naomi and Isla were said to be back at the house, “cooking for the boys.” [Details from Splash News. The pictures aren’t that great, but here’s one of Sacha and Liev at the store.]
None of the photo agencies we subscribe to have the pictures of little Alexander. You can see the photos at Celebrity Baby Blog and I’m Not Obsessed. Given how open Liev and Naomi were in showing their baby, there are sure to be more photos of the cutie sometime this week.
Here are Liev and Sacha shopping at that sporting goods store on Saturday.
Naomi Watts had a baby boy Wednesday at 3:59 p.m. in Los Angeles. Alexander Pete Schreiber weighed in at 8lb, 4oz, and 22 1/2 inches long. He is the first child for Watts, 38, and her boyfriend Liev Schreiber, 39.
While most everyone assumed she was past her due date, Life & Style quotes an insider who says that the baby was actually early:
“Naomi was planning on giving birth next week– her due date was early August — but since she insisted on delivering naturally, she knew there was a chance she would have the baby before the due date. That’s what wound up happening.”
Naomi’s rep say they’re “doing great” and that the new parents are “ecstatic.” Congratulations to Naomi and Liev, that’s great news and we can’t wait to see their new arrival!
Naomi Watts looks like she’s ready to have her baby any day now. I was big like that, although I was a lot heavier than she is while in the late stages of pregnancy, and my son was two weeks late and weighed almost nine pounds. Her boyfriend Liev Schreiber said they don’t want to know the sex of their baby and that they want to wait to find out until the birth.
Is it a decent guess to say she’s having a boy because she’s big or is it hard to tell? I had one waiter tell me he could tell I was having a boy because my face had changed or something. I think that was a nice way of saying I was fat.
Stars don’t let the world know exactly when they’re due because they want some privacy. I wish I had kept my due date a secret too since people bugged me a lot in the 14 days I waited for my son to arrive after he was due. Due dates are just an estimation, and from what I remember reading first babies are often “late.”
Naomi was seen out with a friend in West Hollywood yesterday. Thanks to Splash News for these pictures.
