“This is something that I’ve been wanting for a long time and my next thing is I’m gonna be a mom,” said Swank during an appearance on GMA. “And not just of one, but of two. I can’t believe it.”
Swank also appeared on “Live with Kelly and Ryan” not long after announcing the news, saying of her pregnancy, “I’m feeling great right now, even with the time—you know, I’m on Pacific time, so I’m a little cross-eyed with that. But I’m feeling good right now.”

The cast and crew of Swank’s drama series, “Alaska Daily,” didn’t know she was expecting until after she publicly announced the news. She was trying to keep things secret until she couldn’t keep her bump under wraps.
Congratulations to the happy, proud, beautiful first-time mom and her sweet, sweet family.
