Bryce Dallas Howard is expanding her brood! A rep for the actress tells Us Weekly exclusively that she is pregnant with her second child.
Married to actor Seth Gabel (Fringe, United States of Tara) since 2006, the Eclipse star, 30, gave birth to their first son, Theo, in February 2007.

In a July 2010 essay for Gwyneth Paltrow's GOOP blog, Howard (daughter of director Ron Howard) detailed her struggle with postpartum depression after her son's birth.
"Before Theo was born, I had been in good humor about my 80-pound weight gain, but I was now mortified by it," the The Help actress wrote.

"I felt I was failing at breast feeding. My house was a mess. I believed I was a terrible dog owner. I was certain I was an awful actress."
With the support of family and friends, Howard sought professional treatment. She also read Brooke Shields' Down Came the Rain, which she described as "a revelation."

"Do I wish I had never endured postpartum depression? Absolutely," wrote the Howard. "I...feel deep gratitude for those who stood by me, for the lesson that we must never be afraid to ask for help."















Tell Us What You Think
12She looks stunning. Pregnancy looks good on her.
Why would she want to have another baby? Shedding that baby weight is hard (even with a trainer!)
Ok, I recognized him from the short stint on United States of Tara. Congrats.
This happened to me as well, and Brook Sheilds book and some professional help really helped! I am so glad new mom's are talking about this openly.
Congrats to her. Can't wait to see The Help - love that book!
Mayer Booth, you say it's good to see a married woman having a baby as though it's EXPECTED? Congrats on the baby.... but she is a terrible actress... hence why she was in the Twilight movies...
agree with you mayer booth...
I'm happy for them. Good to see a married woman having a baby.
They look related
Love her and am so happy for her. One of the more normal (and talented ones) in H-wood.
She looks way older than 30...about ten years older.
Congrats to Bryce & her family on the new addition coming
