After speculation fueled by Zoe Saldana’s baby bump while promoting Guardians of the Galaxy, her rep has confirmed she’s expecting her first child with husband Marco Perego.
Saldana’s publicist confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that she is, indeed, pregnant.
As we previously reported, Saldana, 36, prompted the rumors when she seemed to be sporting a bump at the premiere of the film on Monday in Los Angeles. She also posted a photo of herself on Instagram, in which she wore a form-fitting pencil skirt that showed off a tiny baby bump.
Saldana married Perego, an Italian artist, last year in a secret ceremony. She said in a recent interview with Marie Claire, "From the moment I met my husband, we were together. We knew."
The actress signed a three-film deal with James Cameron to be in the sequels to the highest-grossing film of all time, Avatar.
She has opened up about her desire to start a family in previous years, once saying "I'm Latin—we start young, honey!"
