Well—talk about a potential cliffhanger…

Reps for Marcia Cross, 44, have confirmed exclusively to People magazine that the newlywed is pregnant.  Just married in June, the Desperate Housewives star is reportedly due in April.  You don’t need to do the math to figure out that she and her husband, stockbroker Tom Mahoney, acted quickly!

Given that most finales are filmed long before their May sweeps debuts, will her impending pregnancy have any impact on the show?  If so, who could possibly be the father?  Both men in her life—Rex and George—are already dead.  Could it be Kyle Maclachlan’s??  He was making the moves on her at the end of last season.

But then again, it doesn’t have to affect the show at all.  She wouldn’t be the first person to hide behind pillows.  Seriously though— judging by her size, she probably won’t need to hide at all.  She could probably go the whole season without anyone being the wiser…
