Marcia Cross Confirms She is Pregnant With Twins  10/7/06

Desperate Housewives star Marcia Cross has confirmed she is expecting twins.

Cross and new husband Tom Mahoney, who married in June (06), initially announced the actress is pregnant and due to give birth next April (07).

Although the couple didn't reveal Cross is awaiting the arrival of twins, the news soon leaked, forcing her to confirm it.

She tells US chat show host Ellen DeGeneres, "This is what happened. I was so blown away about having twins so I needed a minute to deal with it. So we didn't tell anybody, we just said that I was pregnant.

"I don't know where it came from, but it got out and everybody started congratulating me and I kind of gave up.

"So... I am having twins."
