One particular lady looked especially radiant this weekend. Proudly showing off her six-month baby bump was Crossing Jordan actress Jill Hennessy. And, revealed the actress, it's a boy.

This will be the second child for the Edmonton-born beauty and her husband of seven years, Paolo Mastropietro, who already have a three-year-old son named Marco.

Being pregnant for the second time is a little less daunting, says Jill, one of the many celebrity guests at the weekend's Hampton Social concert in New York. "I'm still dying to meet this little person, but now I've got a pretty good idea about what will happen over the next few months," she says.

One thing to do before the November birth is choose a name for the new arrival: "I'm still trying to find a name that goes with Mastropietro… maybe something Irish."

Jill also revealed that although she's taken a break from acting, her busy workload hasn't dropped. The former busker is returning to her first love of music and is currently working on a new album due out this fall.
