Kendra Wilkinson announces pregnancy

Kendra Wilkinson has confirmed that she is expecting her first child with fiancé Hank Baskett.

The pair announced their engagement last November after Baskett proposed to the Girls Next Door star at the top of Seattle’s Space Needle.

She told E!: "Hank and I are thrilled to announce that we are expecting our first child together. We are touched by the outpouring of support by our family, friends and fans."

Wilkinson, 23, and pro-athlete Baskett are planning to wed later this month at her former boyfriend Hugh Hefner’s Playboy Mansion, which was also the setting of her reality TV series.

The show's spin-off Kendra debuted in the US on Sunday night on E! and scored the second highest series premiere for the cable network.
