Minnie Driver sat down with the New York Post to reveal some more juicy pregnancy details. But she’s still coming mum on the identity of her baby’s daddy!
Don’t expect Minnie to give her bub one of those weird celebrity names. She said if her delivery surprise is a boy he’ll be named Thomas, but if it’s a girl she’s chosen Isabel. Such beautiful names!
The mystery dad won’t be present at the birth, but she’ll still have plenty of support! Minnie plans to bring along her mom, her aunt, her best friends, a midwife, and her yoga teacher! She says she’ll be “the wailing monster at the center.”
She added, “I’m not married and don’t know if I’ll stay with the guy. It’s great to be an independent creature. Today you don’t need a man anymore. In the old days, a baby without marriage and people would put you out. Today you speak about it on talk shows.”
So true! Ms Independent Minnie has decorated “neutral, peaceful” nannies in both her homes, and while she intends to hire a nanny she also plans to be “a hands-on mommy.”
Minnie is keeping fit in the final stages of her pregnancy with frequent walks along the beach with her “forever, constant, loving” companion, her black lab Bubba. She’s excited about the impending birth of her baby, who is due next month.
“I always wanted to be a mommy. I’m very into feeling this female thing.”
