First it was the Escada rep and now Liev Schreiber spilled the beans about his leading lady Naomi Watts expecting a baby. Everyone but Naomi herself has confirmed this pregnancy.
"Yes, I'm going to be a dad," Schreiber said in response to the announcement by the Late Night host Conan O'Brien. "Very exciting."
Schreiber jokingly told O'Brien that he "gave grief" to Watts whom he described as "normally a wallflower," for her suddenly being so sociable and going to the Oscars. "And she said, 'No, no it's a very auspicious thing that our embryo is going to be at the Oscars," said Schreiber.
When it comes to selecting a name for the child, "I'm trying to stay out of it all," he adds. "I'm trying not to make any decisions, [because] everything that I try to do in service of her or the coming baby is wrong. So I really don't even go to my house much anymore."
As for possibly taking his name, Live responded, "It's an awful name," said Schreiber. "It's probably the most oft-mispronounced name in showbiz."
