LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Minnie Driver is pregnant with her first child, the actress revealed Thursday during an appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno."

The 38-year-old-actress made the announcement after Jay had joked that it appeared she was gaining weight from too many buffet trips.

"Are you calling me fat? You've noticed my tummy haven't you?" Driver grinned.

"Are you pregnant?" Jay asked.

"Yes I am," she revealed.

And while Minnie said she loves being pregnant, she admitted that there is one part of the process she could do without.

"I don't know why they call it morning sickness. I am sick morning, noon and night," she joked. "But it's a fair trade off."

However, despite being asked by Jay who the father was, Minnie declined to reveal his name.

Over the years, Driver has been romantically linked to the likes of John Cusack, Criss Angel and her "Good Will Hunting" co-star Matt Damon. She was also engaged to Josh Brolin in 2001.

    they have been doing it for years and will continue. And what makes ya'll thing that just because she doesnt name the babby's dad means he wont be there? Get over yourselves and live your own lives as you feel is right. And as the bible says treat your neighbors as you want to be treated and those without sin throw the first stone.....and I know there are no saints sitting here pos

    why does the fact that it is 2008 make it ok to have a baby out of wedlock? Why do you think our society is going down the toilet? It is sad and pathetic that people have no moral conscious or compass anymore, and all of the world has to suffer the consequences for it.
