    Reports have been circulating in the US that the A-list actress is expecting her first baby with husband Ryan Reynolds – find out what she has to say

    Blake Lively has been forced to respond to pregnancy rumours after reports started circulating in the US last night that she was expecting her first child with Ryan Reynolds.

    The rumour mill went crazy when OK! magazine ran the story of Blake's alleged pregnancy on the front cover of their latest issue and claimed that the A-list actress was rocking a small baby bump on a recent outing. Sources told the magazine that Blake was 'rocking a little paunch - maybe the tiniest of baby bumps'.

    But a rep for Blake Lively issued a statement last night immediately quashing the rumours, saying: 'The story is 100% false. Blake is not pregnant.'

    Well, this is awkward.

    A source also told the magazine: 'Blake's usually a size 2 or 4 and loves to show off her body in fitted clothes, but now she is going for looser, more draped fits.' They added that the star is 'avoiding alcoholic beverages right now' – but a second insider told E! News that she 'has never been a drinker' anyway.

    Ryan Reynolds sparked rumours of an impending pregnancy earlier this month when he openly discussed his desire for a family in an interview with Details magazine.

    He said: 'We’d love to have a big family. We both come from big families – my parents did four, Blake’s did five. A lot of people say it’s crazy, but we’ll only know when we’re there, you know? We’ll walk through that fire pretty happily, I think.'

    Something tells us it won't be long before we're celebrating another big baby announcement…
