Fiennes to be a father - report

Actor Joseph Fiennes is to become a first time father, according to reports.

The Shakespeare In Love star, 39, is said to be expecting a baby with his Swiss model wife, Maria Dolores Dieguez, 27, who he married in Tuscany, Italy last month (Aug09).

The Mail on Sunday reports the couple, who met at a film festival in Italy four years ago, is "utterly delighted" with the news.

A source tells the publication, "She's three months pregnant. They kept the news quiet until Maria reached the three month mark but now they are telling everyone."
