Minnie, 38, is remaining tight lipped over the identity of the father and currently lives in Malibu, California.

Despite the baby being due in August she is unsure about whether or not to return home for the birth.

“Minnie’s facing a real dilemma,” reveals a close friend of the actress, who was dumped by boyfriend Matt Damon on the Oprah Winfrey show and has since been linked to US stars Josh Brolin and Criss Angel.

“She’s become very attached to America,” adds the source. “A big part of her would be happy to have her first child there as it’s very much her adopted home.

"But equally, she has a strong emotional attachment to England, and likes the idea of her baby being born a proper Brit. She’s still not sure what to do.”

Hurry up, Min! At this rate you’ll be giving birth midway across the Atlantic.
