Baby on the Way for Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell

This whole situation reeks of a mess. Keri left her husband (and father of her two children) around the same time that she began filming the show with Matthew (coincidence?) and now she’s pregnant with Matthew’s kid. Nonetheless, pretty unprofessional behavior to become pregnant with your co-worker’s child, but I guess that’s the standard in “Hollyweird.”

They seem to be a good couple together who genuinely care and respect each other. Congrats to them!

As happy as I am for her, it’s always disheartening to hear a woman basically say that her life meant nothing before she had children. Childfree women are not all selfish and all about ourselves. For all the women out there who cannot or did not have children for whatever reason, it’s an insult. You can be happy about being a mother without shaming those of us who are not. I contribute to society in many others ways rather than breeding in an already over-populated world.

*Sigh*–It is only a mess in your world. Take care of yourself!

I’m surprised! Said no one…

The husband/wife Hollywood merrygoround. Out with the old and in with the new. Start a new series, must be in a new relationship with your costar. *Saralee* You’re a fan, so I’m sure you’ll have a comment for me too.

Didn’t know her well, heard she was a good actress, congrats.

Congratulations to them! Wonder if they’ll write this in and we’ll get a Philip and Elizabeth baby?

@Rebeccah-Not sure how her feelings about motherhood is about you or other childless women.

Stunning Couple

@*Sigh*
You and I don’t have the same definition of professionalism. Why is it pretty unprofessional? They have been together for almost two years….with all due respect and with the comment you just made, you’re the weird one.

@Abi–Yes, it is unprofessional. Have you ever worked on a film or television set where the principal actors started a romantic relationship and/or became pregnant? I’ve had the unfortunate experience of working on such a set. You have no idea how much pressure such situations place on the writers, set, crew and PR people. Off-screen romances between principal actors cloud fans’ interpretation/perception of the writing and promotes unnecessary tabloid/media scrutiny on productions that simply want to put out good, quality work. Furthermore, the actors in a romantic relationship become strained from adding a baby + working long hours together on the set, which causes for an overall strained set.
