Is Liz Hurley expecting a new arrival?

IS THE patter of tiny feet imminent for the glamorous Liz Hurley?

She has been spotted sporting what appeared to be a noticeable bump while on the way back from a recent holiday in St Lucia with her husband Arun Nayar and former love Hugh Grant.

The sometime actress and her millionaire Indian businessman hubbie said last November that they were trying for a baby and it seems, according to our Caribbean source, that their wishes have come true.

The couple, who met in 2002, were married almost a year ago in a private civil ceremony at Sudeley Castle in Gloucestershire. The minimal affair was followed by a blessing and lavish party for 400 friends and family.

Liz, 42, who already has a five-year-old son Damien from a previous relationship with American Steve Bing, flew out over the festive season to bask in the sunshine of the tropical island when it was noticed that the normally super-svelte swimwear model and designer had a bloated midriff.

“She was wearing a floaty top but not even that could disguise the very visible bump underneath,” reveals our source on the same return flight last week.

“It was obvious that she was really paranoid about it as she kept on checking her stomach and making sure that her top was still in place to cover it up. It definitely looked like an early pregnancy bump.”

It’s not the first time that Hugh, 47, who was in a 12-year relationship with Liz until they split in 2000, has gone on holiday with the married couple. The unlikely threesome also travelled to the Maldives together last year following the Four Weddings And A Funeral star’s parting from socialite Jemima Khan.

A spokesman for Hurley was not available for comment last night.
