YAY!

Mrs.Wenceslas · January 7, 2015 7:20 pm

okay. I hope it´s what he really wants and deserves.
howgh from me to that.

Edgeucated · January 7, 2015 7:26 pm

hurraah! I'm so happy for them!

nakahara · January 7, 2015 7:26 pm

Wish that they would be both happy:

besleybean · January 7, 2015 7:26 pm

It's definitely what he wants and deserves.

Mrs.Wenceslas · January 7, 2015 7:27 pm

bb: not sure. but it´s his life, not ours. and not my business at all

besleybean · January 7, 2015 7:29 pm

Huh?
He's been dying for kids for years

Mrs.Wenceslas · January 7, 2015 7:33 pm

of course, but I doubt he wanted this after a few months of a relationship...but maybe so. it´s his private life and I don´t care. I´m a fan of an actor and Sherlock series, not of Ben himself or his friend for I don´t know them at all. and I have my own life to think about

Since it's not a rumour anymore. When do you think is the baby due? If the latest dress isn't a optical illusion, there's already a babybump. And people usually don't announce pregancies before they are in 3. month.

I just hope that the so called "fans" who spread nasty rumours about Ben and Sophie on Tumblr would stop now and find some more positive activities with which they would engage themselves.

I second that! Some people definitely need a life!

Just before I almost picked up my phone to call my best friend and tell her about it so we could squeal together.
(yes, sad... I know...)

Exactly!
Not sad at all, you're (or we) happy that his biggest dream came true. Nothing wrong with that.

I have Kopfkino (is there an English expression for that? "mental cinema"?), where I see him sitting on their child's bed reading The Hobbit to her/him and does perfect voices, especially Smaug and chasing "monsters" away at night.

That Cumbercupcake girl is so amazing and fast!

besleybean · January 7, 2015 7:36 pm

Well.she's had since the last photos at least!

So the poor man is going to perform Hamlet and have a tiny one at home... at least he'll be in London!

besleybean · January 7, 2015 7:51 pm

Maybe he'll acquire ear plugs or even occupy a separate room for that time.
Before anybody accuses me of mindless gossip, Benedict has said that he really needs a good night's sleep to operate...
Hamlet will be demanding.
Then again, maybe they'll be one of these fortunate couples who have a baby that sleeps all night...
I have heard such babies exist, but neither of mine slept AT ALL!

Mrs.Wenceslas · January 7, 2015 7:54 pm

how many do you have, BB?

besleybean · January 7, 2015 7:57 pm

Only 2..
Both high achievers...but they never slept until they went to school.

This Is The Phantom Lady · January 7, 2015 7:57 pm

Mum told me I was one of those rare babies... so apparently they are real

They do exist, I am fortunate to have one at home.

Herbal soothers?

Vhanja · January 7, 2015 8:30 pm

Wheee, I'm so happy for him!

Mrs.Wenceslas · January 7, 2015 8:34 pm

Susi: I know people who use beer as a soother..
