X-File star Gillian Anderson pregnant

Gillian Anderson is pregnant - just months after splitting from her husband. The 'X-Files' actress has told friends she is expecting following her break-up from documentary maker Julian Ozanne, her second husband, according to Mail On Sunday newspaper.

Anderson split from Ozanne in April just 16 months after the pair tied the knot in a lavish ceremony held on the island of Lamu, situated off the coast of Kenya, in 2004.

The 37-year-old star - who already has an 11-year-old daughter, Piper, from her first marriage to Canadian television art director Clyde Klotz, which ended in 1996 - is now said to be dating wheel-clamping firm director Mark Griffiths.

Anderson is believed to have delayed telling close friends about the pregnancy until she reached the 12-week stage, the time at which risks of losing the baby become minimal.

Griffiths, 34, moved into the actress' ¡ê3million home in Holland Park, London, last month.

Anderson's spokesperson has so far refused to confirm the pregnancy and it is not yet known who the father is.
