I don't know how true this is. But if she is, congrats to her and her partner. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

First Gemma Ward, now another IMG model is in the family way.
Congratulations are due to bikini babe Elyse Taylor, who is expecting a baby with her partner Seth Campbell, according to very well-placed sources close to the 26 year-old two time Vogue Australia cover girl and O'Neill and Victoria's Secret ambassador.
It's the second time this year that IMG Models Australia has lured a major name from another local agency, only to find them suddenly heading off on maternity leave. Taylor signed with IMG Models Australia earlier this year. Ward signed back in January, with very serious hopes of rekindling her modelling career. All now put on hold, of course, with the recent news of her pregnancy to partner David Letts.
Who is Campbell exactly?
An American footwear entrepreneur, who founded the UES sneakers brand back in 2005 with childhood mate Nick Cohen, who is better known as a DJ in New York.
Short for Upper Echelon Shoes, the brand made a splash several years ago with its “shoewelry”: glitzy kicks featuring 18K gold and sterling silver hardware laces that wound up being promoted on the feet of, among others, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, Gwen Stefani and Miley 'Twerkin' Cyrus.
There's more than one Australian connection to the brand.
After moving on from Rolling Stones progeny Alexandra Richards, Cohen recently dated one of Taylor's best friends, Australian celebrity Lara Bingle.
Campbell himself is no stranger to the celebrity scene, having once been romantically linked to Marie-Kate Olsen.
As for Taylor, she has previously been linked to Home & Away actor Peter Scarf, American musician Nicholas Piscitelli and of course, the controversial Sydney nightclub figure John Ibrahim, who Taylor started dating as a teenager.
Frockwriter understands Taylor and Campbell have been together for approximately 18 months.
Taylor left Australia with former good friend Miranda Kerr in 2005 to try her luck on the international modelling scene.
Like Kerr, she quickly found a niche in swimwear and lingerie. Taylor has been an ambassador for the US surf wear brand O'Neill and if not exactly a fully-minted Victoria's Secret Angel, she nevertheless first commenced working with the intimate apparel juggernaut back in 2009 for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show and her numerous VS commitments in the interim have included a fragrance campaign that was shot by action blockbuster director Michael Bay in early 2012.
Amusingly, Campbell reportedly boasts a tattoo on his left arm with the Spanish phrase “que duermas con los angeles”. English translation: “that you sleep with the angels.”
We wish Taylor and Campbell all the best.
