Zooey Deschanel is expecting her first child with fiancé Jacob Pechenik, but whether that will be a (new) girl or boy will be a surprise for everyone. During her visit to Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday, the actress-singer told host Jimmy Kimmel that she and Pechenik are waiting to find out what they’re having.
“It’s more fun,” she said.RELATED: Zooey Deschanel Debuts Her Baby Bump in Cute Workout Gear
While the New Girl star—who looked lovely in a red jumper during her appearance—said she goes “back and forth” on whether she thinks she’s having a son or a daughter, one thing is for sure: she misses a lot of the things you can’t have while you’re pregnant. Deschanel said she particularly misses wine, getting her coffee fix (“Now I can have half a cup, which is a joke”), and “cheese that tastes good.”
And, like something out of a sitcom, the star also talked about being pregnant at the same time as her famous sister, Emily Deschanel.
