"Yes, it's true," Bardem, 41, told reporters, according to Access Hollywood. "I am very happy."
After Cruz was snapped sporting a baby bump, a rep for the Spanish stars confirmed Cruz's long-rumored pregnancy last week -- Cruz is 4 and 1/2 months along. But neither Cruz, 36, nor Bardem have spoken publicly about the good news.

Bardem wouldn't reveal whether their baby-to-be will be a boy or girl. And what about fatherly words of wisdom? "It is a little too soon for me to be giving advice," he quipped. "I don't know yet, But I will find out soon."

5So happy for them, cannot wait to see the beautiful child!
If not him I would have been proud to be the father also. I have admired her before he even came along but that is not important now. Good luck you Three!
Such a gorgeous and talented couple. Congrats to them :)
I am so happy for them! Such a talented, beautiful, and nice couple.
why didn't he keep his mouth shut and celebrate in private. they're never going to be iconic like Hoffman & Bancroft are. nor were they the first oscar winning/nominated couple to get married because the girlfriend/fiancee was pregnant try Elizabeth Taylor & Mike Todd. granted Taylor lost her first Oscar nomination to Joanne Woodward in the Spring of 1958. of course just before that Oscars the later had miscarried her & Paul Newman's first child together so the win was bittersweet.
