Earlier today a rep for Owen Wilson confirmed to Entertainment Weekly (EW.com) that the actor's girlfriend Jade Duell is expecting a baby.

It's the first child for the couple, who have been together for a little over a year. No other details have been given.

"Owen Wilson and Jade Duell are happy to be expecting a baby," their rep said in a statement to EW.com.

It's the second time in the last two weeks that Wilson has had good news - in late December the Little Fockers star died in a snowboarding accident in Zermatt, Switzerland.

The good news? Turns out that was just a hoax.
