Point of note number one - Dave Gardner is the same Dave Gardner who's a sports/entertainment manager and bessie mates with David Beckham. According to heatworld, Liv and Dave were introduced to each other by mutual friend Kate Moss a few years back. Seemingly they started dating "earlier this year".

To put it another way, you know how the world is getting smaller every day? Well, now imagine you're a celebrity... your circle of friends/people you would consider fraternising with could well possibly fit in a thimble.

The 37-year-old actress has been pictured a lot recently in roomy clothes while employing the preferred prop of the cautiously pregnant - the handbag in front of the bump.

Liv already has a 9-year-old son Milo with her ex husband Royston Langdon (that's not the boy from school Lisa Simpson tells Homer she fancies, his name is Langdon Alger. Common mistake).

Liv joins a long line of pregnant celebrities including Mila Kunis (yep, still pregnant), Zoe Saldana, Shakira, Kristen Bell, Hayden Panettiere, Carrie Underwood, Amanda Peet, Rachel Bilson, Kelly Rowland, Kourtney Kardashian....
