Subscribe to Archivestuff Have your say This may be news to the gossip mags, but there is such a thing as too many baby stories. One of this week's mags is so chock-full of celebrity baby news it should probably come with a free nappy. The culprit is a new-look Woman's Day, with no less than six stories featuring doting mummies and daddies and parents-to-be.
Come on, guys. Some of us need real goss to go with our baby news - where's Britney, Lindsay and Paris? Okay, okay, those stories are there too - but you'll almost certainly be sidetracked by Eva Longoria's hideous Egyptian-themed gold bikini.
No, Eva, you're not Princess Cleopatra. You don't even own a pyramid. But you'll have to wade through a heck of a lot of baby news to get there.
First up is 45-year-old Dancing with the Stars contestant Frank Bunce and partner Carla, who are expecting their first child together. "I'll be 50 when I'm taking him to school," Frank moans. Yep, and you'll be well into your 60s at his 21st.
Try not to make any 'those were the days' speeches, Frank. The pair admit their announcement finally puts those pesky rumours about Frank and dancer Krystal Stuart to, er, bed. "I couldn't understand why they just picked on Frank and wouldn't let it go," Carla says.
Meanwhile, Kiwi model Kylie Bax and her photographer hubby Spiros Poros have more baby news, introducing the world to new daughter Dione - their second after two-year-old Lito. Looks like Kylie's going to be the only one with a normal name in that family. In news to infuriate every mother who has been through a painful birth, it took Kylie just 10 minutes to deliver Dione.
She's now known in New York as "the woman who arrived at hospital and practically gave birth in the lobby". Has an official from the Guinness Book of World Records been notified? Sick of the baby news yet?
Too bad. The bubba theme continues at Woman's Weekly as new mum and former netballer Bernice Mene unveils her top tips for losing that extra post-baby weight. Walking, drinking plenty of water and pilates or yoga is top of her list, as is "hula-hooping in the shower".
Other stars to hit the headlines this week: Tom Cruise doesn't like Katie Holmes' new 'emo' haircut. "Tom has always said that he likes long hair," an insider tells WD. "Katie is naturally stunning and doesn't need hot pants or trendy haircuts to look great.
" Tom is probably going to want a divorce if Katie completes that emo look, with tight jeans, black sunnies and tattoos. Julia Roberts is withholding access to her baby with Danny Moder in a bid to force her husband's family to attend counselling. "When Danny told his family, they were outraged at Julia's ultimatum," a friend tells WD.
Surrender the baby Julia, there's a good girl. The latest Hollywood hook-ups include Zach Braff and Drew Barrymore ("very into each other"), Tommy Lee and Kimberly Stewart (Kimberley's dad Rod is "nervous"), Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn ("sparks flew"), Britney Spears and her drug counsellor Jim Sundahl ("she's my rock") and Bruce Willis and opera singer Nadia Bjorlin ("we clawed at each other"). If you can't keep up, don't worry.
They'll have all swapped again next week. Finally, the quote of the week comes from rocker Jon Bon Jovi, who told TV host Ryan Seacrest he checks into hotels with an unusual pseudonym: "I'm old, old. In fact, that's going to be my room name on the next tour.
" If Bon Jovi has a great fall, let's not bother calling all the king's soldiers and all the king's men, ay? Want to have your say on this week's gossip? Send us your and we'll publish your comments.
