From Hello Online (http://www.hellomagazine.com/2003/07/25/katewinslet/) ...

British actress Kate Winslet and her husband of two months, American Beauty director Sam Mendes, are "absolutely delighted" to announce that they're having a baby.

"They are absolutely delighted," said a spokesperson for the couple, who are currently holidaying in Italy. "Kate and Sam have been desperate to have a child together."

The new addition, due in early 2004, means that the Titanic star's only child, two-year-old Mia, from her marriage to Jim Threapleton, will have a sibling.

Apparently, Kate was already pregnant when she tied the knot in a top secret ceremony while on holiday in late May, but wasn't aware that she was expecting.

The hush-hush wedding was witnessed by just three close friends of the movie-making pair, and the bride's little daughter. Although early reports quoted the actress as saying she "hadn't been planning" to get hitched, Kate later clarified: "It was not a spur of the moment thing – we had been secretly engaged for some time."


Congratulations and best of luck to the pair of them. Didn't waste any time, the randy bastards... ;)

That's gonna be one helluva kid. Inheriting Winslet's acting skills and Mendes's directing chop will make one lucky kid, for better or worse

But what if the baby gets Mendes' acting skillz and Winslet's directing capabilities? Who knows what would come of it then!

Kudos to the two of them! I really like this pairing; it feels like the real deal, not just yet another lame Hollywood marriage. There's also the fact that it's one of the best directors out their today and one of the best actresses out their today, that helps...

Congrats!
