Olivia Wilde news: Star expresses excitement for second child

Actress Olivia Wilde has shared via Instagram the news that she is indeed pregnant with a second child with her fiance, actor Jason Sudeikis. The photo reveals her "matching baby bumps" with her 2-year old son Otis. The actress has teased that she and Jason were expecting a second child in an interview with People earlier this month.

"I'm desperate for more kids. I love my siblings so much and Jason has incredible siblings too. The more the merrier," she said. In regards to her son, she explained, "He loves little babies. He has a Michael Jordan doll that he carries around sometimes. He uses the doll as either a hammer or a baby."

As pointed out in a report from E! Online, the actress's statements came during the Marimekko for Target event. It is speculated that she already knew about the pregnancy at the time but chose not to divulge the secret to the public just yet. 

Sudeikis also hinted at Wilde's pregnancy when speaking at the premiere of his film "The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea" during the Tribeca Film Festival. Sudeikis teased that he was on board having a second child and that it would be a "good cocktail" mixing his and Olivia's looks and genes. 

As it was with Wilde, it is highly suspected by fans that Sudeikis was already aware of Wilde's pregnancy when he made the statement. It is pointed out that many celebrities do not make announcements until their gynecologist confirms that the baby is in good health and that the pregnancy will go smoothly.

It is undetermined if Wilde's pregnancy will conflict with the schedules for her future projects. The actress most recently starred in the Martin Scorsese project on HBO, "Vinyl," which was just renewed for a second season. It is undetermined at this point if scheduling for production for the second season will work around her pregnancy.

Matching baby bumps. ✌️
