Typically unless I’m big fans of the celeb, I’m not all that excited about pregnancy announcements but this one is pretty special! This couple has gone through HELL and back since getting married, having some major issues getting pregnant at first, and then discovering that Guiliana had breast cancer in the process! After successfully completing her chemotherapy and putting that horrible chapter behind them, the strong couple have finally gotten their wish…Guiliana is expecting! I’m so happy for them! Get the 411 below.

(RO) – “It was pretty much one of the best moments of my life, if not the best moment of my life,” Giuliana said of learning of her impending motherhood. “It was just another world, on another level.”

The pregnancy is the result of one of “two embryos that we had banked prior to learning about the breast cancer,” Bill said. “This was our last stop — this was it … with the medicine she was on, this was our last effort. The prayers were answered.”

Giuliana, 37, said the life-changing news reinforces to her the power of positive thought.

“The more you focus on the positive, the more you are grateful for the good things in your life, the more good things come to you,” the Italian-born beauty said. “I’ve really seen that. I have a great husband … and I have a baby on the way.

“What more can I ask for, really?”

Bill, 40, says that the child will genetically be theirs (meaning he provided the sperm and she the egg) and that the surrogate (nicknamed by Giuliana, “my baby mama”) is 20 weeks into the pregnancy.

The baby is expected in late summer; at this time, the couple says they are keeping the baby’s gender a secret.
