A very pregnant and very beautiful Jessica Simpson graces the cover of Elle magazine’s April issue to announce that she’s having a baby girl. While celeb baby-bump-in-the-nude photos seem to be par for the course these days, Jess’ is definitely going to sell some magazines.



Ah swear, ah will croak if she asks me for a pair of Nikes instead of Christian Louboutins!” she blurts out, her Dallas accent swooping back in this moment of heightened anxiety. “Eric is so athletic. We’re gonna have this ath-a-letic girl and I won’t even be able to take her shopping.”

says Elle. Sounds like she can’t wait to relate to a mini-version herself. The spread is adorable, complete with a joyous picture of her fiance, footballer Eric Johnson, kissing her rotund baby belly. While we don’t have a specific due date for Jess, I think it’s safe to say we’ll get to lay eyes on the new baby any day now. Check out the full cover and the belly-kiss photos in the gallery, as well as nude baby-bump covers from years past.
