The 'Brisby Bear' star announces her pregnancy on 'The Howard Stern Show', saying, 'I'm seriously preggo,' before joking about a possible name for the baby.

AceShowbiz - Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy are expanding their family. Claire declared on Sirius XM's "The Howard Stern Show" on Wednesday, April 18 that she and Hugh are expecting their second child.

In the interview, Claire confessed, "I am pregnant." She added, "I'm seriously preggo. I'm deep into my second trimester." Howard then asked, "Was this planned or are we having a surprise?" Claire replied, "Yeah, this was planned. We've been wanting another kid for a while, and it happened."

When asked about the baby's sex, Claire refused to give an answer nor a clue, saying, "I'm going to keep that to myself." She then joked that she might name the baby after Howard. She said that if the baby is a girl, she might name her "Howardina".

Claire and Hugh met on set of "Evening" in Newport, Rhode Island. They began dating in 2006 and then three years later they announced their engagement. In the same year, they married in a secret ceremony in France. They welcomed son Cyrus in December 2012.

Shortly after her first child was born, she shared about how she felt to ELLE. She said, "I've always wanted to have kids, but I'm glad I didn't until now. When I was thinking about [working and being a mother] originally, I was really nervous about it. I think I would make a lousy stay-at-home mom. It just wouldn't suit me. I feel so fortunate, in that I've had this arrow-straight focus that I wanted to act."

Previously, Claire dated Australian singer Ben Lee after meeting him at her birthday party in 1997. They ended their relationship six years later. In 2004, Claire began a relationship with Billy Crudup, her co-star in "Stage Beauty". However, their relationship did not last long as they called it quits in 2006.
