Parents-to-be Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum brought a very special guest to Sunday night’s 85th Annual Academy Awards — wearing a Rachel Roy dress and Irene Neuwirth earrings, the actress, 32, showed off her new curves, while her husband revealed where their baby will be born.

“I’m walking the carpet, trying to keep it together tonight but we’re good!” a radiant Dewan-Tatum told Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet Sunday night.

When asked by Seacrest if the couple had any plans to slow down for some “family time,” the Side Effects star, 32, replied: “We’re gonna actually have the baby in London while I’m shooting so there will be no downtime whatsoever after that.”

Tatum — who was named PEOPLE’s 2012 Sexiest Man Alive — and his wife’s first child is due in June.

Great dress. Love these two.

She must be due in very early summer as she looks quite big already. She’s so pretty – beautiful couple.

I wonder what she means by “trying to keep it together”? I hope she isn’t having a rough pregnancy!

They’re both just glowing! Beautiful.

So absolutely glowing how amazeing not everyone looks that beautiful when pregnant namely my self who was pale the whole nine months

I also saw that on Entertainment Tonight’s website, Jenna blatantly said that she wants a girl. That’s terrible to say. What happens if she has a boy, and he sees that when he gets older?

I don’t think it’s terrible she said she wants a girl. Most people, even if secretly, prefer one or the other for their own reasons. It’s not like she will treat a son differently. I always wanted a boy first and was lucky to have my son, but if I had a girl instead I would have loved her just as much.

Both of them look awesome! but for being due in the summer- shes actually pretty big. Do you think she’s having twins? She looks great though, carrying only in front!

Now the paparazzi will be camping out in front of every London hospital hoping to get the first picture of their new baby.

Summer on February 25th, 2013

Wow, she’s pretty big for less than 6 months along. I think she’s a very tiny person, though. In any event, she looks beautiful! They seem like such a nice couple.

Most people have a preference to a particular gender but don’t say anything. I wanted a girl so badly I even cried after my 2 boys were born. I got over it quick and I adore them! My 3rd baby was a girl! I thought I’d be more excited about that than I actually was but by then I’d realised it doesn’t matter what you have, they’re all children and they are all special

Anyway this baby is going to be BEAUTIFUL. Channing doesn’t do much for me but he is good looking and his wife is gorgeous.

I think she looks just right for being due in June, actually. Keep in mind that it will be March by week’s end, so she really only has about three months left to go (give or take a week or two depending on when in June she’s due!)!

That being said, have they ever actually said the baby was due in June? All I recall is Jenna saying a couple weeks ago that the baby is due “in a few months”. Perhaps they announced it at the Oscars? If so, I wish PEOPLE would have been a bit clearer about that for those of us who didn’t watch.
