Jaime King is expecting her first child.

The 'Hart of Dixie' actress - who married her filmmaker husband Kyle Newman in November 2007 at Greystone Park and Manor in Beverly Hills, where they also had their first date - has announced she is pregnant and will give birth later this year.

A spokesperson for the 34-year-old blonde beauty, who previously starred in 'Sin City' and 'Pearl Harbor' broke the news to People.com on Friday.

The actress also shared her excitement with her fans via Instagram, posting a new picture of her with her husband and two dogs with the caption "Getting ready for another baby to be squeezed into this picture".

Jaime doesn't appear to have any cravings for junk food as she also revealed she is currently "obsessed" with healthy meal service Paleta.com, which delivers farm-to-table nutritious food and fresh juices to her daily.

The former model's co-star and onscreen rival Rachel Bilson recently revealed that she hopes to start a family soon too.

The 31-year-old actress has been dating 'Star Wars' actor Hayden Christensen for six years and they can't wait to have children.

She previously said: "I definitely have family on the brain. Having kids is something I want to see in my future - I hope."
