Actress Melissa George and her French millionaire boyfriend Jean-David Blanc are expecting their first child together and are said to be overjoyed with the happy news, according to the New York Post newspaper.
The couple have told family and close friends they are to become parents.
Melissa and Jean-David have been dating for over a year after first meeting at a BAFTA after-party in 2012 and only recently Melissa 37, hinted that they may have been trying to start a family when she revealed she was ready to have kids after finding her right man.
She said: "I am going to be a mother, absolutely obvious no matter how, when, what. I really am picking the right father for my child. It's very simple.
"Words can't describe, sometimes, things that feel so right. I wouldn't want to butcher it by doing that. I had a marriage, and lots of other things, and they were really, really hard. I had to take a break this year. I thank God he dropped this man into my life."
Melissa was previously married to film director Claudio Dabed but they split in 2011. She then went on to date music mogul of Russell Simmons.
