Life is swell for pregnant Michelle Reis

Former beauty queen Michelle Reis turned up at a Hong Kong event this week 10 kg heavier, confirming to the world she is pregnant. She is expected to deliver a baby boy in January by Cesarean section.

Reis, who married business tycoon Julian Hui two years ago, told reporters her stomach was so big she couldn't see her feet anymore. She then inadvertently let slip she was going to have a boy when she said the child would be able to wear her cousin's clothes.

"Infant clothes are usually androgynous colors like yellow, blue and white. As long as they don't wear pink, that's fine," Sina.com quoted her as saying. Michelle added she planned to have the birth filmed.
