Marcia Cross‘ recent pregnancy will be featured in the finale of the current season of Desperate Housewives after all, even though she and show creator Marc Cherry went to great lengths to hide the fact she was with child.
Cross hid her bulging belly behind cushions, chairs and tables during the early months of her pregnancy but had to quit the show altogether at the beginning of the year when her doctors put her on bed rest.
But during an interview on The Late Show With David Letterman on Thursday night, the actress revealed why Cherry insisted on turning her own home into a movie set after she was forced to take a break from the show.
Cross, who will return to the show for the upcoming season finale, teased, “I come back in a particular condition, which, sort of… I can’t really say.”
But when Letterman quizzed her further, asking, “You come back pregnant?” the flustered redhead said, “I didn’t say a word,” prompting the host to add, “You come back pregnant and we don’t know who the father is.”
An impressed Cross nodded, “Yes. That was good.”
The actress is no longer pregnant–she gave birth to twin girls in February.
