Bridal Bumps

Angelina Jolie may be prepared, apparently, to wait until after the birth of her latest child to wed Brad Pitt. But many celebrities are so impatient to marry, they will walk down the aisle complete with bridal bump. Ulrika Jonsson, 40, the television presenter, was five months pregnant with her fourth child, when she married advertising executive, Brian Monet, 39, in March.

Actress, Julianna Margulies, the former ER star, was seven months pregnant when she wed her lawyer husband Keith Lieberthal in November. Statistics show as many as twenty percent of all brides this year will be expectant mums.
The figure pales in comparison to the mid-19th century when, it is estimated, up to 60 % of brides in rural England were with child. Today’s bride-with-a-bump, however, at least has the chance of wearing a wedding dress which has been specially designed for both occasions.
