'Desperate' Cross says twins pregnancy like winning lottery
2006-12-01
US actress Marcia Cross, 44, a star on the popular television series "Desperate Housewives," said she feels like she has "won the lottery" in being pregnant with twins. Cross, who is five months pregnant, said in an interview with TV's Extra that she had been "terrified" in learning that she was expecting twins in her first pregnancy. "I was really freaked out and I was terrified -- what if I cant be a good mother to two and somebody would always be feeling left out," she said. "I won the lottery at my age to have two," she said, adding, "I am absolutely 100 percent fine." According to magazines, the twins are due in April. The announcement of Cross's pregnancy in September came barely two months after the flame-haired actress married stockbroker Tom Mahoney, four years her senior. It is the first marriage for both. The actress who since 2004 has played the character Bree Van De Kamp in "Desperate Housewives," a remarried widow and mother on the brink of a nervous breakdown, has been a fixture on television series since 1985, including hits such as "Melrose Place" and "Ally McBeal."
