Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes expecting baby

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Movie star Tom Cruise and his fiance, actress Katie Holmes, are expecting a baby together, a spokeswoman for the actor said on Wednesday.

News that Holmes, 27, is pregnant with Cruise's child was first reported by People magazine on its Web site.

"I can confirm that," spokeswoman Marlan Willard said when asked about the report, but added that she had no information about a due date or any other details.

A statement from Cruise's chief publicist, sister Lee Anne DeVette, added: "Tom and Katie are very excited, and the entire family is every excited."

No wedding date for the couple has been set.

Cruise, 43, and Holmes, 27, began dating in mid-April, and he proposed to her in June at the Eiffel Tower in Paris, announcing their engagement the next day at a news conference.

A month earlier, Cruise had drawn snickers and raised eyebrows with a manic, couch-hopping appearance on "The Oprah Winfrey" show professing his love for the actress.

The twice-married Cruise, currently shooting the action movie "Mission: Impossible III," adopted two children, Connor, 10, and Isabella, 12, with former wife Nicole Kidman.

So the baby's overdue?

Dammit, that was mine!

I was confused as well. Damn deceiving thread titles.

This child, boy or girl, should be named Damien

artificial insemination anyone???

I thought this had something to do with Todd McFarlane´s Spawn...though I think that kid will probably have some of his powers

i'm confused, i thought it was a sham relationship to get publicity. i thought i read somewhere that jessica alba was tom's first choice but she has a real relationship.
