Minnie Driver proudly displays her maxi baby bump at London gig

Updated 15:31pm on 14 May 2008


Minnie Driver is eagerly waiting the arrival of her first child, but there's another project keeping her busy in the meantime - her country music career.

The actress turned singer took to the stage at the Arts Theater in London's Leicester Square for a low-key gig to promote her second album, Seastories.

Her budding bump was never far from mind - she caressed her tummy during the performance and dedicated her final song, Ruby Adeline, inspired by a pregnant friend, to other expectant mothers.

According to People magazine, she told the crowd: "This is for all the pregnant ladies in the house... for anyone else who's knocked up."

The 38-year-old has previously admitted her pregnancy was unplanned and has so far refused to be drawn on the father's identity.

However, Minnie, who is due in August, has denied wide-spread reports it is San Francisco musician Craig Zolezzi.

She said: "Craig's not the dad! He's my great friend and he's been so cool about it. I want to shield the baby's dad as much as I can because it wasn't his choice to get roped into all this stuff.

"It'll come out in time and there'll be some other bump people will be interested in and I'll have this baby and get on with my life."

She has hinted that he is English, and "sort of in the same business."
