'He's giving me extra TLC': Morena Baccarin gushed about boyfriend Ben McKenzie while discussing her pregnancy. They are pictured together here on Monday
'He’s giving me extra TLC and making sure I’m drinking water and taking care of myself.'
Morena's pregnancy has been much talked about, after it emerged that she was expecting a baby with Ben in September, two months after her estranged husband Austin Chick filed for divorce.
She is currently embroiled in a bitter divorce battle with Austin, who she shares two-year-old son Julius with, but the proceedings have allegedly been temporarily put on hold until after she gives birth.
Morena told People: 'I’m right where I should be. All I think about is my son, my family and my future family.'

She added: 'There’s the story that people tell and the story that Mom tells – and [my son] will know what’s true. That’s all that matters.'
Last month, TMZ alleged that Morena has filed documents stating she has been placed on bed rest by doctors due to a high-risk pregnancy.
The actress apparently claims she is not able to take part in a divorce deposition as a result until 30 days after the birth of her baby.

The former couple have joint custody of Julius, but the little boy spends most of his time with his mother, who is filming in New York City.
In November, Morena was ordered to pay Austin, a 44-year-old director, $23,000 a month in spousal and child support.
Morena's estranged husband claimed in September that Morena told him she was three-and-a-half months pregnant.

He stated in legal documents obtained by TMZ: 'This places the moment of conception right in the first week of June, 2015, the time she was telling me she wanted to work on our marriage and well before we stopped sharing a bed.'
Meanwhile Morena has claimed that they were talking about separating back in March of last year.
In September, the Homeland star stated in divorce papers, according to TMZ: 'Today, I am in a new committed relationship. I am planning to re-marry. Also, I am 3 1/2 months pregnant.'
