Devon Aoki is pregnant.
The 28-year-old Supermodel is expecting her first child with financier fiance James Bailey and the pair are thrilled at the prospect of becoming parents.
Her representative said: 'Devon and James are extremely happy. They became engaged over the summer, and she has just found out she is pregnant.'
Devon - who is the heiress to a large fortune as her father (Olympic wrestler Rocky Aoki died in 2008) founded the Benihana chain of restaurants - began modelling at aged 13 and took over from Naomi Campbell as the face of Versace when she was 16.
She then ventured into acting appearing in films such as 'Sin City' and '2 Fast 2 Furious'.
When she first burst onto the modelling scene, she was touted as the new Kate Moss and while she has never achieved the same success, Devon has huge admiration for the 36-year-old beauty. (Gotta be kidding. Aoki has modelLed for the fashion houses Lancôme, Chanel, Versace, despite her relatively short height for a runway model. Aoki has done ad campaigns for Chanel Ready-to-Wear, Chanel Couture by Karl Lagerfeld, Versace by Steven Meisel, YSL by Juergen Teller, Alessandro Dell'Acqua, Hugo Boss, Moschino, Ungaro, Fendi, Junko Shimada by Bettina Kimenda, Baby Phat by Kimora Lee Simmons, Lancome, Tiffanys and co.)
She has previously said: 'I have a lot of love for her. I hate all the bad publicity she has had over the past year, because she is a wonderful person - she is a true icon.'~ MSN
