Days Of Our Lives actress Alison Sweeney is pregnant with her second child.
The 31-year-old soap star revealed the news on U.S. reality diet show The Biggest Loser, which she hosts, during filming on Monday.
Describing the moment to People.com, her representative Carrie Simmons says, "She told them that, in a season all about family, hers is about to get bigger."
Sweeney and her husband Dave Sanov are already parents to son Ben, three.

I wonder if DAYS will be as inventive about filling for her maternity leave as they were last time?
OMG Stan the Man Now that was funny and not in the haha way. Once again congrats Ali.

Oddly, this could actually make Sweeney (and maybe DAYS) more popular with some press attention. As dumb as it is, celebrity mags (American celebrity mags at least) and tabloids are completely obsessed with pregnant women right now, and since Alison Sweeney is hosting a reality show, I wonder if people will start talking about her.
Another thing about Sweeney: How funny would it be if she got an Emmy nom for hosting The Biggest Loser after years of not getting any recognition in daytime? Not likely, I guess, but definitely possible.
