Bed Rest for Marcia
Marcia is just all over the news today, isn’t she? Apparently, according to a TV Guide news article, Marcia Cross has been placed on bedrest for the duration of her pregnancy. Her twins aren’t due until April, however, being put on bedrest isn’t unusual in a multiples pregnancy particularly if the mother is a little older as Marcia is. However, even though Marcia was only going to be filming two more episodes of “Desperate Housewives” before going on maternity leave, this definitely puts a crinkle in the plans for the show. Producers are actually moving the show to Marcia’s West Los Angeles home for a couple of days at the end of this week to shoot a few important scenes.
While Cross is resting upstairs in bed, the Housewives team will be downstairs transforming the home she moved into just months ago into a likeness of Bree’s orderly abode. “They are painting the walls, moving in props and furniture from the set…,” says a source from the set. “They’re basically making Marcia’s house into Bree’s.”
Wow, if the Mohammed can’t come to the mountain, the mountain will come to Mohammed! Best of luck to Marcia for the rest of her pregnancy, I hope she’s getting spoiled rotten. I wonder if this will impact her appearance at the Golden Globes this coming Sunday (she’s nominated). This might solve her evening wear dilemma after all!

[…] The good news is our girls looked FANTASTIC last night. Felicity gets my personal “Best Dressed” award as she looked absolutely stunning from her gorgeous hairstyle and makeup down to the train on her jewel-toned gown. Nicolette Sheridan and Eva Longoria were also in attendance, wearing subtle white and black respectively. Marcia was unable to make it, of course, due to the bed rest her doctor has put her on for the duration of her pregnancy. That’s a pity, because I would have loved to see what Mr. Blackwell’s “Fabulous Fashion Independent” would have worn to the show. […]
