Jessica Simpson, pregnant with her second child, let slip–apparently by accident–that she’s having a baby boy. The comment came during an appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show. More from PEOPLE.com:
The singer and actress, 32, let the news slip on Jimmy Kimmel Live that daughter Maxwell Drew, 10 months, is getting a little brother — then spent the rest of her appearance in shock that she’d done so.
“I just feel awful, I’ve been vomiting,” she tells Kimmel of her current pregnancy. “The crazy thing is, I never knew that a wiener could actually make me nauseous.”
After a gasp, Simpson adds: “Well, I guess I just told the world that I’m having a boy!”

Nearly a month after a source close to the singer and fashion designer Jessica Simpson announced she was pregnant with her second child, Simpson and her fiance Eric Johnson have confirmed the news. From E! Online:
After weeks of hiding her bump in baggy black clothing, the “Fashion Star” host posted a photo on Twitter Christmas morning, showing her daughter Maxwell Drew sitting in a patch of sand with the words “Big Sis” inscribed in it.
Simpson’s smiling, adorable tot was dressed in super cute, candy cane striped pajamas, sporting a red bow in her hair for the pic, which was accompanied by the caption, “Merry Christmas from my family to yours!”

Jessica Simpson, whose daughter Maxwell Drew is just 7 months old, may be pregnant again, US Weekly reported this morning.
“It definitely wasn’t planned. But yes, Jessica is pregnant again,” a source told the magazine, although Simpson’s representative had no comment. Simpson and her fiance, Eric Johnson, welcomed their daughter May 1, and Simpson had been in the limelight as a spokesperson for Weight Watchers as she reportedly shed 70 pounds of baby weight.

On the premiere episode of Katie Couric’s new talk show Katie, singer and fashion designer Jessica Simpson revealed her post-baby body for the first time since she disclosed that she was struggling to lose pregnancy weight and seeking help from Weight Watchers–and is now a spokesperson for the company–to shed the pounds.
On the show, Simpson disclosed that she’s lost more than 40 pounds, and that she is 10 pounds from her pre-pregnancy weight. Simpson’s daughter Maxwell Drew was born May 1.

A new outlook on food has helped.
“The only fish I ever ate was a fish stick,” Simpson says, adding that she also loved chips, guacamole and queso. “Now I’m trying to eat fish.”
She adds, “I definitely don’t pick up the magazines. I definitely don’t Google my name. I try to avoid it completely. But I subconsciously know the talk is going on. Every day it’s a struggle for me. Weight Watchers is not intimidating. It’s not a diet. It’s a lifestyle.”
Simpson, who admits she “put on more baby weight than I was planning,” isn’t ashamed of her former body.
“I have to separate myself from the world’s expectations,” she says. “I have to look inside myself. I want to be a role model.”

Singer, fashion designer, and television personality Jessica Simpson told USA Today that while she was pregnant with her baby daughter Maxwell Drew, she had a “big appetite” and gave in to frequent cravings for macaroni and cheese.
“I let myself indulge in everything I wanted because it was the first time I was ever pregnant, and I wanted to enjoy it,” she said. “I wanted to be happy and eat what I wanted.”
Simpson said she didn’t know the extra pounds wouldn’t “all come off with the baby.” Baby Maxwell was born on May 1 to Simpson and fiancé Eric Johnson, a former NFL player. ”I’m not a supermodel,” Simpson told USA Today. “My body is not bouncing back like a supermodel.”
To shed the weight, Simpson has been following Weight Watchers, and just announced that she’s a spokeswoman for the program. She holds Weight Watchers meetings at her home with her mom and a group of about 14 friends. “It’s nice to do it together and motivate each other,” she said.
Simpson didn’t reveal her starting weight, but said “I’ve lost weight every single week.” In addition to watching what she eats, Simpson is walking about an hour a day and wearing a pedometer to count her steps. She’s also doing brief muscle-toning workouts with a personal trainer several times a week.
“My weight has always been something that people like to comment on. I’ve gotten used to it,” Simpson told USA Today. She added: “Nobody wants to talk about their weight. For me, I have had to come to a place where I am comfortable with myself. I’m a mom now, and get to be a role model for this beautiful little girl.”
