“Halle is overjoyed,” says an insider close to Halle and the baby’s father, model Gabriel Aubry. “The first time, she struggled so much to get pregnant and eventually conceived through in vitro fertilization. This time, the baby was conceived through artificial insemination.”

“She’s just ecstatic to be pregnant again,” the insider tells Life & Style. “She wasn’t sure if she’d have another baby, so she’s very happy!”

Sometimes we read these reports and think, “Gee, really? She was happy? Ecstatic? Over the moon? Can’t we ever hear about a preggo celeb saying, ‘Yeah, it’s OK I guess. I’ll probably learn to love it’?” But then we remember Kourtney Kardashian telling us that her baby-to-be was only a couple of inches away from a Planned Parenthood trash can and rethink our cynicism.

New mom Halle Berry is engaged to her boyfriend Gabriel Aubry after he gave her his grandmotherís ring.

ìGabriel felt the time was right to propose. He gave her the family heirloom because he wanted to show her how much she means to him, and how she will be accepted into the Aubry family,î a source close to the couple said.

ìThe ring belonged to Gabrielís grandmother ñ it was her engagement ring.î

The ëX Mení actress, 41, was snapped flashing the diamond ring in Hollywood this past weekend.

Berry gave birth to the coupleís first daughter, Nahla Ariela, in March.

Halle and Gabriel, 32, started dating in November 2005.

Way to get a jump on all those other Hollywood unwed mothers, Halle. Nicole Richie and Jessica Alba and Jamie Lynn Spears are going to have to try really hard to keep up with you, you wily minx.

Also contemplating a walk down the aisle, Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal, although they're planning on having the wedding first, then moving in together, then having the babies. God, what a coupla squares. Reports OK!:

Sitting in a cozy booth at the Hominy Grill in Charleston, S.C., on May 3, Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal were the picture of happiness. Though the cheery couple, who arrived holding hands, brought their appetites, their minds weren't on food.

"They couldn't keep their eyes off each other," Hominy Grill manager Brandy Mangum tells OK!. "The entire time, he was so attentive. It was really sweet. They really do make the perfect couple."

Friends of the pair say it won't be long now before Jake pops the question to his lady love. "They've been talking marriage for a while," a source close to Reese reveals to OK!. "They'll be formally engaged any day now. They want to spend the rest of their lives together."

But don't expect these two to go down the route of so many Hollywood couples who move in together and start families before getting hitched. "This is a very serious relationship," the Oscar-winner's pal explains. "But Reese is very conservative and traditional. I'm sure she doesn't want her kids to see her 'living in sin.'"

When asked about their clients' plans for walking down the aisle, Reese's rep had no comment, while Jake's people claim there are no immediate plans for a wedding.

Aw, Jake will make a lovely bride. We wonder what color his bridesmaids will wear. Probably teal.


Halle Berry drops her top at MrSkin.com.

And, believe it or not, prudy Reese does too.

"Halle Berry had a 7lb 4 oz girl at 10:17am Sunday morning, March 16, at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles. The actress had checked into the hospital for the second time that day after feeling contractions earlier Saturday morning . . . Halle was overcome with emotion when she finally held her little girl. She said everything she had gone through was worth that moment. The tears kept coming as Halle didn't even want the nurses to take her baby to clean her up and measure. It was a truly beautiful scene."

Of course it was a beautiful scene. For the love of Christ, it was Halle Berry with her legs spread next to a male model. When the doctor asked Halle if she'd like a mirror so that she could witness the birth, she and Gabriel probably jockeyed for position in front of it and stared, mesmerized, at their own flawless features as the baby plopped, forgotten, onto the floor. There were probably wind machines going in the delivery room.
