Poppy Montgomery pregnant with third child

Actress Poppy Montgomery is expecting her third child.

The former Without a Trace star and her husband Shawn Sanford will welcome a new sibling for their 14-month-old daughter Violet Grace this autumn (14).

Montgomery, who is already six months pregnant, confirmed the happy news during an appearance on talk show The View, which taped on Wednesday (09Jul14) and will air on Friday (11Jul14).

Excited to finally talk about her pregnancy in public, she gushed, "I'm so happy. I'm hoping to get all of the privileges now of a real pregnant person. I want to be respected and given lots of royal treatment."

She added, "I haven't told anyone yet, so people just think I have enormous boobs. I was like, 'I wonder if they think I went and got a boob job?'"

The 39 year old also has a six-year-old son, Jackson, from her previous relationship with actor Adam Kaufman, while Sanford has two other children from a prior marriage.
