Giuliana Rancic denies pregnancy rumors — blames Ryan Seacrest

Even though E! News correspndent Giuliana DePandi Rancic has previously stated that she can’t wait to start a family, that doesn’t mean that she is pregnant.  The 33-year-old is denying rumors that she and husband, season one Apprentice winner Bill Rancic, are expecting their first child.

No, I’m not pregnant!

And just how did the rumors get started?  Giuliana has her own idea.

I bet Ryan Seacrest [her co-host] started the rumor. Ryan has this thing with co-hosts where he busts their chops –- like with Randy [Jackson] and Paula [Abdul] on American Idol –- and I get it too. So he probably started telling people, ‘Oh, so many people around the office are pregnant, so and so, and me!’ And now when I do get pregnant, no one will care.

huh? does that explanation make sense to anyone else? I have no clue as to whether or not she is pregnant, but that was a strange quote!

Why are people always so interested in other’s lives.
Are they pregnant or not, whose business is it?

No, she’s not. But she would very much like to be. At least that is how I interpret her statement. What strikes me as odd though, is that sentence that …”when I do get pregnant, no one will care”. Shouldn’t that be totally unimportant to her?

I just said to my mom 2 nights ago, I think she’s pregnant. Her belly seems to be getting a bump in all her clothing. I think “E” is trying to disguise it with patterns but I think I can see one there. I can understand why she would want to deny it if she is very early on.

Maybe she said nobody’s going to care because if she wanted it to be a surprise, Ryan’s already gone ahead and ruined the element of surprise for her whenever she does happen to become pregnant.

Though, I’d be excited for whenever that time does come for her! So, it’s not all that ruined…;)

Here’s my theory: she WAS pregnant and unfortunately lost the child. She was getting a bump and larger breasts. Every time she and Ryan mentioned a pregnant celeb, she got this glowing look on her face. She would also do the “I’m pregnant and resting my hands on my stomach move” and then seem to catch herself and put her hands down to her side. I hope my theory is wrong but there were too many signs to ignore.
