The glowing mum-to-be, who was honoured with the Renaissance Award at the Gene Siskel Film Centre of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago on Saturday, has so far kept her exciting news under wraps.

But after being spied out and about with a burgeoning baby bump, the actress's exciting baby didn't stay a secret for long.

Now Reese Witherspoon has confirmed she is expecting her third child, her first with new hubby Jim Toth.

Speaking to the Chicago Sun-Times, the actress said she is going to take a break from acting to welcome her new arrival, revealing: 'I'm going to take a little time off - and go have a baby.'

The expectant mum also spilled the beans on her growing appetite now that she's eating for two, joking: 'I'm always feeling like I'd like to eat everything in sight!'

Multiple sources have confirmed Reese's pregnancy back in March, with one telling US Weekly: 'Reese and Jim have been trying to get pregnant. Reese is right around 12 weeks but is not planning to announce it.'

Reese, 36, already has two children, Ava, 12, and Deacon, eight, from her first marriage to actor Ryan Phillippe. Congats to the happy family!
