Lena Headey announced pregnancy, but the baby-daddy is a mystery

wenn21645572

Last week, there were photos circulating on some sites of Game of Thrones star Lena Headey, walking around LA with what seemed like a decent-sized baby bump. I’ve actually heard some mutterings here and there for weeks, that Lena is knocked up and she’s trying to keep the whole thing quiet. It’s worth noting that she’s already got one kid, a 4-year-old son named Wylie, with her ex-husband Peter Loughran. And now she’s confirming that she’s pregnant again. But no mention of any baby-daddy.

There’s another Lannister on the way! Lena Headey is expecting her second child, PEOPLE confirms exclusively. The actress is best known for playing Cersei Lannister in HBO’s Game of Thrones.

“I’m happy to confirm that I’m having my second child this summer,” Headey, 41, told PEOPLE in a statement. “I only hope that this announcement can help me to regain some of the privacy I have recently lost to prying photographers and ask that they please respect my privacy and let me enjoy this time.”

First, the Game of Thrones concerns: the new season begins in April, and I would assume she’s already filmed all of Cersei’s scenes for the upcoming season. And even if she hasn’t, I’m sure they could easily mask Lena’s pregnancy… unless they don’t need to? Does Cersei get pregnant again? No, wait. Don’t tell me. I want it to be a surprise!

As for the baby-daddy stuff… my theory is Pedro Pascal. I know we’re not supposed to invade her privacy, etc, and it’s not like any of us really NEED to know. But we theorize about gossip all the time. Pedro and Lena have been pap’d over the past months/year looking friendly and cozy together. And they’re all over each other’s Instagram too. But maybe they’re just friends. Maybe the baby-daddy is someone else. All I know is that I think Pedro Pascal is so sexy, most of us could get pregnant just by looking at him.

Hunger magazine is out …

    My thoughts went to Pedro Pascal too, I really wouldn’t be surprised if they are a couple. As for her scenes as Cersei, they’ve probably all been done for a while now, seeing as Season 5 starts in roughly a month and a half (yay!)

    Congrats Lena!

    oh god please let it be prince Oberyn!

    they already filmed the 5th season, haven’t they? And there are only 5 books so far, basically they can do whatever they want with the characters. Which they kind of do….

    • Kiki04 says:

      If Martin doesn’t finish writing more books soon they’re going to have to just do whatever they want!

      Congrats to Lena. Personally I don’t care if she tells us who the baby daddy is or not!

    • MonicaQ says:

      They already said there was going to be some (major) diversion(s) from the books and the show. ‘Winds of Winter’ (the book) may not even be out this year.

      • Amberica says:

        The author has already said it won’t be out in 2015. 🙁

      • MonicaQ says:

        That’s cool, I don’t mind 😀 It’s been a 15 year long journey reading them anyway! (And enjoying the show! It astounds me that people can’t do both) Writing takes time, I don’t begrudge Mr. Martin for that.

        Now him being a Jets fan however…(kidding)

      • maria says:

        no the book won’t be out this year. But I don’t know if I’ll read it. I got so frustrated with all the new characters in the fifth book that I kind of just skimmed through it. Granted, Oberyn’s kick ass daughters were interesting. Other than that, Arya is my main bitch and Tyrion my main man 🙂

        but what about season 5? no tyrion cersei word sparring, no Bron, no Oberyn 🙁 Aryas story takes off this season but other than that?

      • Olenna says:

        Heard the same thing: No new book in 2015. I stopped reading Book 5 months ago because I decided it’s better to just pace myself with the TV series than wait for GRRM to take his ADHD meds and focus on completing WoW. Nevertheless, I think Lena is awesome; congrats to her on the pregnancy!

  3. Estella says:

    As long as the daddy isn’t Kit Harington aka Jon Snow, I’m good. Lena is beautiful and super cool – hope she has a wonderful and healthy pregnancy/bub!

  4. Sadie says:

    If it is Pedro’s, that is gonna be the most badass baby ever.

  5. Tracey says:

    Maybe she and Jerome Flynn (Bronn) hooked up? Working with an ex makes it easy to, ahem, fall back into old patterns…

  6. Ennie says:

    Cersei is supposed to gain weight because I her alcohol consumption, IIRC. So that’s a good excuse.
    Also, Cersei and the Prince of Dorne!

  7. viki says:

    If the baby is blond and blue eyed – daddy is definitely a Lannister! LOL

  8. vauvert says:

    Congrats Lena! She is stunning and I love her “I don’t give a flying f**k” attitude. She seemed to have had a lot of trouble with her ex husband so hopefully whoever is the baby daddy this time is a nicer guy. (Yep, I do hope it is Pedro but it’s her business).

  9. smcollins says:

    Judging by that last Instagram pic it’d be hard to believe that they’re *not* a couple. In any case, congrats to Lena and I wish her a happy & healthy pregnancy (and delivery….and baby…)!

  10. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    Congrats. I like her better blonde.

  11. Mom2two says:

    I wish her a happy and healthy pregnancy. If I recall correctly, she had her son not too long before they filmed the pilot episode. Season 5 is in the can and depending when in the summer she is due, they can push her scenes for filming until the fall.

  12. Margo says:

    The only thing that makes me think she might NOT be with Pedro is that she doesn’t seem like the type to post public pictures with her significant other on Instagram. And he seems to form these types of bonds with certain actresses, including Sarah Paulson. Whatever the case, it’s her business. Congrats!

  13. Cali says:

    I hope it’s Pedro. Hawt hawt hawt.

    I didn’t realize season 5 started in April already. Going to have to resubscribe to HBO AND Showtime late next month (Outlander comes back, too).

  14. aenflex says:

    She is gorgeous.

  15. INeedANap says:

    I too want to know where the bacon bowls are. Get them Lena! And congrats!

  16. kri says:

    If Pedro is the daddy, that’s going to be one gorgeous kid. She’s stunning.

  17. jc126 says:

    Yeah, I hope it’s Pedro Pascal, too. Congrats to her!

  18. LAK says:

    Gosh, they are so cute together.

  19. GlimmerBunny says:

    I know it’s wrong but I real-life-ship Lena and Pedro SO MUCH. They even had chemistry in their scenes on GOT and the characters are supposed to hate each other! The only thing thing that makes me think Oberyn is NOT the daddy is that I think he’d aknowledge it… But let’s hope I’m wrong, the kid would be seriously adorable!

  20. Caz says:

    I really like her pregnancy announcement statement. Wish her well. I respect her privacy.

  21. redd says:

    I love this crazy bitch. But why, oh why, must people make babies like MASCOTS???
