Helena’s bathing suit is adorable!!!

After seeing the last Harry Potter movie, I can’t tell you how bizarre it is to see Bellatrix Lestrange pregnant!!
August 6th, 2007 at 10:12 pm
She cracks me up. What is in her hair?
August 6th, 2007 at 10:22 pm
Oh, that TOTALLY looks like a little prego belly! I’m guessing she’s 3-4 months along. HAHA! I agree that it IS weird to see the EVIL Bellatrix in a frilly bathing suit!
August 6th, 2007 at 10:25 pm
Man, she is the genuine article! Congrats to them since she really does look pregnant
August 6th, 2007 at 10:41 pm
I LOVE Helena Bonham Carter! And Tim Burton is a complete GENIUS! SO yay! Congrats to them both!
August 6th, 2007 at 11:04 pm
I love how quirky they are… For some they may seem unconventional but it WORKS.
August 6th, 2007 at 11:25 pm
Her hair’s a bit odd, but congrats to them anyway.

For once I agree with the bump comment. This one definitely looks pregnant.
August 7th, 2007 at 8:07 am
Yeah she totally looks prego in both pics! Congrats to her!
That top pic just makes me laugh because it looks like Tim stubbed his toe and Helena felt the baby kick at the exact same moment, plus they’re so unique looking for beach goers anyway, lol!

She is so uniquely odd in such a good way. She is the only one who can pull off the bag lady look and have it look great on her. I bet they are going have some insanely creative and genius children. Congrats to them either way!
August 7th, 2007 at 8:56 am
congrats! that is definitely a preggo belly!!
August 7th, 2007 at 9:42 am
i like her and him.. congrats to them both..
August 7th, 2007 at 1:33 pm
I love her, she always is so quirky, but like it happens naturally. I love that
She definately looks pregnant. I was about that big when I was 26-28w pregnant with my second baby, and my kids are roughly 3ys apart. so it wouldn’t surprise me if she’s further along than some suspect!
I love those two together.
August 7th, 2007 at 8:19 pm
Yep, she’s definitely preggers!
She’s usually so skinny…she’s gotta be!
Congrats to them! One of my fave celeb couples right there!
August 7th, 2007 at 8:22 pm
I am so happy for them!! They are a perfect match!
August 7th, 2007 at 8:57 pm
If you look at the pics of the London Harry Potter premiere, you might see signs of a baby belly. I remember thinking she looked a bit round in the middle and there were odd pieces of fabric attached to odd places on her dress. Could have been camoflauge!
August 8th, 2007 at 1:27 pm
People magazine is confirming that they are expecting their newest addition in December. Congrats to them!
August 8th, 2007 at 2:36 pm
i knew she was at least 4-5 months along! Congrats!!!
August 8th, 2007 at 2:42 pm
She is great. I love the eccentricity of this couple. And I love that swimsuit!
August 8th, 2007 at 2:55 pm
I wonder how she will dress a little baby girl
August 8th, 2007 at 3:08 pm
I love her bathing suit but it needs to be about 1-2 sizes bigger. That is not a large breast friendly suit.
August 8th, 2007 at 6:04 pm
Let me start by saying that I am a HUGE Tim Burton fan. I am simply elated with this news and I with Tim and Helena nothing but the best. I hope that this doesn’t interfere with her schedule for filming the next “Harry Potter” movie too much.
August 8th, 2007 at 9:51 pm
You could so tell she was pregnant, looked like a pregnancy belly all the way.
August 8th, 2007 at 10:59 pm
I love them. That’s great news.
August 9th, 2007 at 10:46 am
I just adore these two together! They seem like such a perfect match! She’s adorable as a pregnant lady!!! Love the suit!
August 15th, 2007 at 3:38 am
If she’s not pregnant, she’s been eating way too many donuts. But my mum’s a midwife, and she is DEFINITELY pregnant. Congrats to her – the two of them make an adorable couple, and Billy Ray is just so gorgeous!
PS – The last actress playing Bellatrix got pregnant and had to drop out. Now that’s a weird coincidence! It’s like the role makes you pregnant. o_o
