While this is a first for Shilpa, Raj Kundra already knows what its like to be a parent. The entrepreneur, who was formerly married to Kavita, is father to daughter Deleena, born on 9 September 2006.

Reportedly, Shilpa Shetty has wanted to be a parent for a very long time. In a media report, in 2009, she said, “I am desperate to start a family. I just love children and we have a beautiful ready made nursery in the new house. I want at least two children”.

There is enough space for us to live at one end while Raj’s parents live at the other and this was even before she got married!

Well, it looks like her dreams are materializing as the actress has been spotted at several clinic around the city. Our source confirmed, “Shilpa is expecting and the couple are extremely happy. Only the close family members and friends have been informed of the new arrival. They do not want to announce it publicly before the first trimester passes”.

Shilpa, who shot to fame in the UK after she won the celebrity show Big Brother, married Raj in November 2009.  The couple went on to buy a share in the Rajasthan Royals team of the IPL and have devoted their attention to the game ever since, until now that is.

Despite repeated text messages and calls, both Shilpa and Raj Kundra remained unavailable for comment.

Still havn’t received the termination, will react after. Need to know the basis of this decision.’ In London now (sic).”

 

Australian spinner Shane Warne expressed his breakdown on the site tweeting, “Just woke up to news that Royals and Kings out of IPL 4, don’t know anything yet, flying back to Australia… it’s a big shock for Royals, will hopefully get to the bottom of it all (sic).”

 

“The Royals gave young unknown Indian players a chance and I as captain backed them and our coaching staff supported them. We were a team… What now for the youngsters? I hope BCCI (Board of Control for Cricked in India) come to their senses, fingers crossed,” he added.

 

Warne also wrote to Shilpa, “Hey Shilpa, please keep me posted if you hear anything, such sad news for us and our loyal fans, shattering to all.”

Shilpa Shetty enjoying her honeymoon

Shilpa Shetty has been walking on air ever since she tied the knot with the man of her dreams, Raj Kundra.

This time, however, their families will be joining them.

The actress likens her honeymoon to a dream. “Back to reality, the last couple of weeks felt like a dream -- from the sunny Bahamas back in London for the last couple of days... There's no place like London when it comes to celebrating Christmas,” Shilpa wrote on her blog.

 

However, Shilpa and Raj won’t be in London on New Year’s Eve. The couple, along with their families, will ring in 2010 on a ship.

 

“Really excited about the Mediterranean cruise we are taking with the family, my first ever, making it even more special. I will be out at sea for the next two weeks... Will be bringing in New Year on the ship,” she added.

 

Guess Shilpa was right when she recently said that she’s going through the best phase of her life after marriage with Raj.

Shilpa Shetty has begun plans for her wedding

Raj Kundra shilpa shetty wedding

After exchanging the engagement ring with her London-based businessman boyfriend Raj Kundra in Mumbai on Saturday, actress Shilpa Shetty has already begun plans for her wedding.

The 34-year-old beauty, who catapulted to international fame after winning the ‘Big Brother’ show in UK, is learnt to have roped in fashion designer Tarun Tahiliani to design her wedding trousseau.

Though Shilpa wore a dazzling sari by Manish Malhotra on her engagement day, she chose Tarun for her wedding because he’s popular for traditional, ethnic Indian wear, including lehengas and saris.

Just last year, Shilpa was the showstopper for Tarun’s fashion show at the HDIL India Couture Week where she wore a heavy lehenga choli that had intricate work on it.

Tarun admits he’s been asked by Shilpa to design her wedding dress, but he refuses to reveal what he plans to create for the actress.

“I can't talk about the details of the outfits but I can tell you that she will look absolutely stunning,” Tahiliani told a news agency on the sidelines of his show at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW) on Saturday.

When asked if he would design Shilpa’s dresses for the mehendi and sangeeth ceremonies as well, Tarun gave a terse reply.

“I'll design everything!” he said without elaborating.

Rumours are abuzz that Shilpa and Raj might tie the knot either by the end of this year or early next year.
