Alexis Bledel

No one even knew the Gilmore Girls star was pregnant in the first place! If it hadn't been for her co-star Scott Patterson, the world would still be in the dark.

“It was great to see her. She’s really blossomed as a woman and now she’s a proud new mother and married and happy,” Scott said. “I remember her as an 18-year-old kid, fresh out of college coming into Hollywood and being a little overwhelmed. She’s just the most likable, intelligent person and adorable human being. She hasn’t changed at all. She looks the same.”

The world didn't find out about Eva's pregnancy until two weeks before she gave birth — and even afterwards, no one knew she had delivered baby No. 2 already. News didn't break until 10 days later.
