'Yes I'm pregnant'

Los Angeles - Former Playboy playmate Anna Nicole Smith, who recently won a legal round over her late 90-year-old husband's fortune, announced on Thursday that she was pregnant.
"Well, let me stop all the rumours. Yes. I am pregnant," the 38-year-old pin-up said in a video posted on her website, without naming the child's father.
"I'm happy, I'm very, very happy about it. Things are going really, really good, and I'll be checking in and out periodically on the web, and I'll let you see me as I'm growing," said Smith, who is seen in a swimming pool with dogs barking in the background.
The 1992 Playboy playmate of the year, who became a reality television star in a show chronicling her life, has a 20-year-old son, according to People magazine.
The former stripper and Guess jeans model has been in a legal tussle with the family of her late husband, oil magnate Howard Marshall, and took her case all the way to the US Supreme Court.
The top court ruled last month that she can pursue her legal battle to claim a multi-million-dollar share of her late billionaire husband's estate.
The busty Texas-born bombshell's appearance at the highest US court in late February sparked a media frenzy outside the imposing court building.
Marshall met Smith in 1991, when she was a 23-year-old topless dancer working under her real name Vickie Lynn in Houston's "Gigi" nightclub.
They married in 1994, just one year before Marshall died at age 90.
