AceShowbiz - Often spotted sporting floaty outfits recently, Helena Bonham Carter is reported pregnant with another child. The 43-year-old actress reportedly has been seen wearing a long, loose-fitting dress while book shopping in Malibu, where she was enjoying a family holiday. She, moreover, was also seen sporting a red swimsuit during the vacation, which failed to hide her growing belly.
According to an unnamed source, the longtime partner of film director Tim Burton "is definitely pregnant". The source then added, "She has a neat little bump already, and seems to be glowing." Should the pregnancy report is true, the baby will be Helena and Tim's third child. The pair, who has been together since 2001, already has two children; son Billy-Ray Burton and daughter Nell Burton.
Previously while she was still pregnant with Nell, Helena Bonham Carter revealed she had struggled to conceive for the second time. She admitted to have been trying fertility drugs and acupuncture, and was considering opting for IVF (in vitro fertilization) when she discovered she was expecting.
"I think we probably would have tried IVF, yes. Obviously, you don't know what you'd do unless you were actually in that situation. There was an argument for just having one child, because we thought if that's the way it's meant to be, so be it," she said at that time.
