Since when is Samaire Armstrong pregnant?! I adored her as Anna on The O.C.! Congratulations to her!

I agree with the above comments, how come there wasn’t a story here about Samaire Armstrong being pregnant?!
Love her, and she looks absolutely radiant.

I echo the first three comments, and I wonder something else as well: Who is the father of Samaire Armstrong’s child? I googled her, but all I could find about her expecting was literally one sentence on her Wikipedia page saying that she’s expecting her first child. There was no mention of a father, nor of her currently dating anyone.

She announced her pregnancy a couple of months ago via Instagram, sharing a photo. She’s private and pretty much keeps to herself. Quit acting like her kid doesn’t have a father. because you don’t know who he is. January Jones kept her info private, too! It’s their business, not yours.
