Reese Witherspoon Reportedly Pregnant With Third Child

When Reese Witherspoon turns 36 this Thursday March 22, she'll definitely have something extra to celebrate: A baby on the way! The Oscar-winning actress is pregnant with her third child, and her first with second husband Jim Toth, who she wed last March at her $7 million ranch in Ojai, Calif. after over a year of dating. The baby-to-be will join older siblings Ava, 12, and Deacon, 8, Witherspoon's kids with first husband Ryan Phillippe, from whom she split in 2006 after 7 years of marriage.
 
 
jamie-waylett.jpgBack in October, news broke that "Harry Potter" actor Jamie Waylett -- who played the Slytherin bully Vincent Crabbe in six of the hit films -- was arrested for possession of explosives following the Aug. 8 riots in London. Waylett was caught on camera drinking stolen champagne while holding what appeared to be a Molotov cocktail. He's had trouble with the law before -- in 2009, Waylett was arrested on suspicion of marijuana possession. "A considerable amount has been said about what happened over those few days," the judge told Waylett. "Anyone watching the footage in this case can only imagine the mayhem that took place on the streets. You chose to go out on to the streets on what was the third day of the violence... You were pictured on a number of occasions with a bottle full of petrol with a rag as a wick. I accept entirely the jury's verdict that you did not throw or have any intention of throwing it but merely being in possession of it would have been terrifying to anyone who saw you." Waylett has been sentenced to two years in prison but will be eligible for release after one year.

Tebow headed to Jets or Jags
The Denver Broncos are expected to trade quarterback Tim Tebow to either the New York Jets or Jacksonville Jaguars by midday Wednesday. The Denver Broncos reportedly are looking to part ways with the unconventional quarterback, having signed four-time MVP Peyton Manning. The report says that while the Green Bay Packers and Miami Dolphins also were believed to be interested in acquiring Tebow, the trade talks are exclusively down to the Jets and Jaguars. Tebow was expected to be dealt for a third-round pick. The widely popular 24-year-old hails from Jacksonville, but the source said he would prefer playing time over a return to his home town. According to a close friend of Tebow, he prefers his next destination to be in Florida, where he came to fame playing for the Gators. Tebow recently said,  "in all honesty, Tim said, 'I miss home. I miss the South. And hopefully I'll land somewhere in Florida.' The Broncos and Manning agent Tom Condon spent Monday working out parameters of a deal expected to be worth about $95 million over five years after the NFL's only four-time MVP called Elway, the Broncos' revered QB-turned-executive, and told him he had decided to come to Denver.
