"Mad Men" actress pregnant, father not revealed

Actress January Jones, who plays sullen housewife Betty Draper on the Emmy-award winning television drama "Mad Men," is about to become a single mother. Jones, 33, is expecting her first baby in the fall. The father's identity was not disclosed. She broke up with "Saturday Night" live actor Jason Sudeikis in January. Jones has had some practice being pregnant. Her "Mad Men" character delivered her third child during season 3 in 2009. But her real-life pregnancy means viewers might see even less of Jones when the show returns early next year. She had a low profile last season in the wake of Betty's divorce from advertising executive Don Draper, played by series star Jon Hamm. Jones will next be seen in X-Men: First Class.

Meredith Vieira, who has been rumored to be considering leaving her gig as co-host on the morning show, is indeed moving on, a network source says. "Meredith has decided she simply does not want to continue with the grind of a daily morning news show," says the source. "This isn't about leaving to tend to her family – it's about being done with the phase of her career that requires this sort of a daily, on-air commitment. This didn't come out of the blue and is something she's talked about for some time." Longtime Today show news anchor Ann Curry will reportedly take over as co-host once Vieira leaves.

"Two and a Half Men" creator Chuck Lorre has reportedly come up with a way to continue the CBS comedy for a ninth season without the involvement of Charlie Sheen. Lorre's plan would refocus the show around Jon Cryer's character. Sheen was fired from the show in March. He's suing Lorre and "Men" producer Warner Bros. TV for breach of contract, but he's also said numerous times in the past couple months that he'd be open to the idea of returning to the series. Lorre and Warner Bros., however, are reportedly not interested in having him return to the series.
