She’s already the proud mum to two gorgeous boys Noah, three, and Bodhi, two, with her estranged husband Brian Austin Green.

And now Woman’s Day Online can exclusively reveal the 29-year-old beauty is pregnant with another beautiful boy!

A source close to the actress has confirmed Megan is expecting her third son and she couldn’t be more thrilled.

Megan and Brian are expecting their third son together!

Meanwhile, Brian recently spoke out about the surprising new arrival.

“You know, nothing is planned,” he told People just a week ago. “None of them are ever planned. You kind of just go with it.”

“At my age, to be having three babies, is crazy. I’ll be 43 this year,” he added.

Megan and Brian, who were married for five years, confirmed their separation after filing for divorce in August last year.

The pair were together for over a decade.

Despite the pregnancy, neither parent has commented on the current status of their relationship.

Sources close to the duo have revealed that the soon-to-be parents-of-three are hoping to work things out.

“Brian and Megan been working on themselves as individuals and things have gotten better between them as a couple,” an insider told E!News.

Megan confirmed her pregnancy when she stepped out in this LDB last month.

“They have been getting along great. They are best friends and know each other very well,” the source added.

In 2014, the actress candidly spoke about marriage and family to Men’s Health.

“You can’t live in a fantasyland and think that everything’s going to be perfect all the time. You will go through phases where you’re just not getting along.”

“You’re not communicating well. That’s going to happen, and it’s going to feel impossible to you sometimes. It might not even make sense to you sometimes. Arguments are normal,” she said honestly.

Megan might be pregnant but she’s not letting a bump come in the way of her job.

The starlet began filming for the new mobile game Stormfall: Rise of Balur. “She’s just a general bad ass,” the 29-year-old star said in a behind-the-scenes video.

“I’m really excited to play the role. It’s fun to play a very empowered, strong female character.”

Prince Harry just said the sweetest thing about Princess Diana

His mum would be so proud.

Princess Diana’s untimely death is a tragedy that’s still difficult to fathom almost two decades after the fatal car accident in Paris.

Diana left behind her two sons, Princes William and Harry, the latter of whom has opened up about losing his mum to People magazine.

Harry’s been busy promoting the upcoming Invictus Games, a sporting competition for war and military veterans he founded in 2014, and admitted that as much as he knows of Diana’s life, he sadly has very few personal memories of her – he was only 12 when she passed away.

“I don’t have that many memories of my childhood with my Mum,” he told the magazine.

But he says that he knows he has a lot in common with her.

“I know I’ve got a lot of my mother in me. I am doing a lot of things that she would probably do.

“When she died, there was a gaping hole, not just for us but also for a huge amount of people across the world,” he said. “If I can try and fill a very small part of that, then job done.

“I will have to, in a good way, spend the rest of my life trying to fill that void as much as possible. And so will William.

“All I want to do is make my mother incredibly proud. That’s all I’ve ever wanted to do.”

We have no doubt she would be. No, we’re not crying! Just chopping onions, obviously.

Man charged after filming punching his son for skipping class

A father has been charged after filming himself sparring with his son until he's bloody and bruised as a form of 'punishment'.

A father has been charged after he forced his teen son into sparring with him as a form of punishment, while filming it and putting it online.

The man, who has been identified as Travis Sellers from Virginia, US, put the disturbing video onto Facebook Live for the world to witness.

In the video, he and his son both have boxing gloves, but the father lays into him to the point where his son is left bloody and bruised.

Before the horrific assault began, Sellers says to the camera that the violent session was “discipline for not following my directions, secondly for teaching him how to defend himself”.

He says his son – who is believed to be 17 – ditched class and walked out on teachers without letting him know where he was.

Sellers punches him in the face and the head for two minutes when he stops and tells his son to clean up.

The boy is covered in blood and whimpering, to which Seellers turns to the camera and says “that’s how you discipline a teenager”.

The caption of the video reads: “Blessings come in all forms and mines came in the form of a great young man to have as a son. I feel I would be the worst disappointment to him if I didn’t do my best to deter him from choices in life that I have seen lead to destruction. The world now has given us platforms to reach out and show your efforts. A lot of people were hurt by this video. And that was not the purpose. I did it to show what has been working for ME.”

According to news website Rollingout, he has been charged with domestic assault and battery charges released on $US5,000 bond.

Khloe Kardashian’s latest Instagram post causes kontroversy

The reality star’s latest holiday snap has landed her in hot water
Khloe Kardashian Cuba

Uh oh, KoKo! She’s no stranger to controversy, but Khloe Kardashian’s latest Instagram image has whipped up a storm of criticism. The reality star was snapped posing next to a “Fidel” sign on Wednesday, while holidaying in Havana, Cuba.

And her fans and followers are not happy. Immediately after the photo was posted, people rushed to express their outrage and disappointment, feeling the 31-year-old was glorifying a horrible dictator.

In the image, Khloe appears in a sultry pose, decked out in a tight blush coloured dress, topped with a silver wrap and a panama-style hat. She appears just below an inscribed quote by Fidel Castro, the former dictator of Cuba.

The image, probably intended to be arty and edgy, was very swiftly decried by her fans and critics alike.

The offending image of Khloe that has fans fuming.

“You would think someone so rich could use it to her advantage and educate herself, not just go to a country and offend millions,” noted @xbiancasx.

“So stupid,” said @j0eangel0, “supporting a dictator and a communist who’s oppressed his people for decades. But to her it’s a photo op.”

Some tried to reach out to the star, relating the actions of the Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ star to an issue close to her heart and heritage. “As upset as you were learning about the Armenian genocide is how upset people feel about Fidel,” says @mffallaw.

Others couldn’t believe that the star still hadn’t removed the photo, even after the deluge of negative comments. “Seriously, please remove this picture,” said @efrainlizette. “I really used to like you and your show but this is a deal-breaker for me. For all your Cuban followers.”

For one of her fans, the issue was a hear-tbreakingly personal one. “Truly disgraceful,” @sassyandsimple said. “We left in 1967 with only the clothes on our back. My mom was pregnant with my sister and I was one-year-old. My grandfather was tortured by Fidel. Shame on yourself!”

But not everyone jumped straight to condemnation. Some of Khloe’s followers were torn. “Love you Koko, but as a Latina I can honestly tell you this is not right,” said @monducsis. “The history of that country has been so painful.”

Kourtney and Khloe in Cuba before the storm of controversy hit.

And some fans were even quick to jump to her defence. “Why are you even following her if you hate her so much?” asked @theimportanceofbeingernest. “She took a photo on the stairs and that was in the background. It’s there, she’s there enjoying herself. Calm yourselves. You do you, Khloe.”

“You look beautiful,” agreed @jojorval. “Those throwing hate are just jealous.”

Khloe posted this photo of Havana, with a caption defending her actions.

But despite all the craziness, Khloe refused to take the image down, defending her cultural experience in a following post.

She said her ultimate goal while in the country was to “expand my mind. Now it has been filled with new memories and knowledge of culture, food, traditions, daily life… It will never go back to yesterday’s dimensions. I’m so blessed to be able to appreciate another’s culture.”

We’re sure there will be more than a few of Khloe’s fans who are questioning her definition of “appreciation” right about now.

Serial killer dubbed ‘Grim Sleeper’ found guilty of 10 murders

The murders were dubbed the “grim sleeper” killings because of a 14-year gap in the violence between 1988 and 2002.

A serial killer in California has been convicted of 10 counts of first degree-murder and one count of attempted murder.

Lonnie Franklin Jr, 63, targeted young vulnerable women in south Los Angeles between 1985 and 2007. The murders were dubbed the “grim sleeper” killings because of a 14-year gap in the violence between 1988 and 2002.

The victims’ bodies were dumped in alleys and bins in south Los Angeles, some were naked, some were covered with rubbish. Most of the women had been shot in the chest, others were strangled.

The “Grim Sleeper” killings were investigated by as many as 30 detectives during the 1980s, but they exhausted leads within a few years.

A special squad of detectives was assembled after the most recent known “Grim Sleeper” killing, the June 2007 shooting of Janecia Peters, 25, whose body was found inside a rubbish bag.

Police arrested Franklin in July 2010 after his DNA was connected to more than a dozen crime scenes.

Jackie O forced to apologise on air

Radio host Jackie O was forced to make an on-air apology this morning after remarks she made about Parramatta Eels player Kieran Foran.

This week Samantha Grant told Kyle and Jackie O she wasn't selling out her half-sister, despite using her name in the book's title.

She’s never been one to shy away from stirring the pot, but radio host Jackie O was forced to make an on-air apology this morning after remarks she made about Parramatta Eels player Kieran Foran.

The player has been in the media lately after splitting with his partner and mother to his two children, Rebecca Pope.

Jackie O made comments on KIIS 1065’s Kyle and Jackie O Show, questioning whether Kieran’s newborn baby Jordan was actually is.

This sparked the skipper to launch legal action against her and the radio network for her defamatory comments.

In a legal letter sent to the Australian Radio Network (ARN), it said suggestions Foran’s child was not his “gave imputation the former partner of (Foran) committed adultery during their relationship.”

According to Nine News, the letter continued: “That imputation is defamatory, completely false, untrue, and lacking any merit.”

“We are instructed to request that you submit a clear apology and retraction to Mr Kieran Foran and Ms Rebecca Pope.”

Kieran Foran

This morning, Jackie O opened up the radio program with co-host Kyle Sandilands saying that her comments about Foran were “really stupid”.

She said: “I gave voice to a really ugly rumour, and I just wanted to apologise because it was stupid to say what I said and it was really insensitive.”

“I don’t want to repeat this ugly rumour because that’s what it is, but I just want to take this time to personally apologise to Rebecca and Kieran for what I said. I can imagine how hurtful that would’ve been and I feel really terrible, I really do, and I’m truly sorry.”

“Despite what some people might think it’s not what I’m about on radio,” she continued.

“I have tried very hard in my career not to be hurtful, and that’s why I’m very sorry for any harm that I’ve caused.”

According to news.com.au, the ARN denied they’d received a legal letter, but were still sincerely apologetic all the same.

Australia’s biggest jail to be built in southwest Sydney

There are plans to shut down Long Bay jail to sell its land.

Plans are being made by the NSW government to shut down the Long Bay Jail at Malabar to sell the land and build another in southwestern Sydney.

But this one will be the biggest in Australia.

Corrective Services Minister David Elliott said: “Long Bay is a prime bit of real estate with close access to the eastern beaches, the airport and the city.”

“I’ve long held the view that prisoners should not have the enjoyment of a seaside setting.”

The Daily Telegraph reports the new jail will accommodate up to 5,000 inmates – which is almost half of the entire state’s prisoners of 12,600.

There are three sites in the Wollondilly area that have been identified as potential locations, with plans that the new prison will be privately built and managed.

Another prison is expected to be built in Grafton by 2019, which will house 1,700 prisoners.
