AceShowbiz - Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys, whose romance blossomed after co-starring on FX's series "The Americans", are going to become parents. The actress is reportedly pregnant with her third child and her first with Rhys.
"They're thrilled," a friend of the couple told PEOPLE. Another insider told Us Weekly that Russell is "more than four months along" and that "it's so exciting" for both Russell and Rhys.
After news of her pregnancy broke, Russell stepped out in New York City on Wednesday, January 6. She wore an oversized tan coat that concealed her supposed baby bump.
Russell is already mom to 8 year-old son River and 3-year-old daughter Willa. In December 2013, her publicist confirmed that she had split from husband of seven years Shane Deary. "They have been separated since early summer," the publicist said at that time. "The separation is amicable and their focus is on their children."
Rumors of Russell dating Rhys also began that month when they were spotted having an intimate lunch at ABC Kitchen. The couple never confirmed their relationship to public. Rhys played it coy when asked him about the relationship, telling PEOPLE, "That's the best [rumor] I love."
