'Gotham' Star Morena Baccarin I'm Marrying My Co-Star Ben McKenzie
"Gotham" star Morena Baccarin -- who is pregnant with co-star Ben McKenzie's baby -- plans to marry him ... TMZ has learned.
Baccarin is in the middle of a nasty divorce with director Austin Chick. According to legal docs obtained by TMZ, Baccarin says she got pregnant with Ben's baby in June, which she claims was after she separated with Chick. The estranged husband begs to differ and says she got pregnant while they were still together.
Chick filed for divorce, and Morena has already planned her next move. In her legal docs, obtained by TMZ, she says, "Today, I am in a new committed relationship. I am planning to re-marry. Also, I am 3 1/2 months pregnant."
Morena's divorce is bitter. As we reported, Chick says he came to their house in June, only to find Ben freshly showered and playing with their 1-year-old son.
And Morena included texts in her docs to show how bad the situation is ... she texted to Chick, "I'd like to be there alone with Julius [their son]. Please Friday all day and night through Sunday morning."
He responded, "I'd like to run Fox Studios and remake The Sound of Music w an entirely black cast of hip hop artist."
She tells the judge, "This entire situation is not funny to me."

Kyrie Irving He Left Me High & Dry & Preggo ... Says Beauty Queen
Kyrie Irving's beauty queen baby mama says her relationship with the NBA star is ICE COLD -- claiming he left her in the dust after he knocked her up ... though Kyrie says that's BS.
We broke the story ... the Cleveland Cavaliers star filed legal docs in Texas requesting a paternity test to prove he's the dad to Andrea Wilson's unborn child so he can step up when it comes to child support. He says he wants to be an involved dad.
But we spoke with Wilson -- 2010 Miss Texas United States -- who says Kyrie's off to a bad start.
"Kyrie has had no participation. He is only seeking custody to look good for the press."
"I’ve paid for and handled everything on my own without ANY support from him. I have no connection with him nor do I seek any connection to him."
Sources close to Kyrie tell us he doesn't want a war -- and hopes to work out an amicable solution so he can focus on being a parent.
The kid is due in early December -- hopefully, they can figure out a way to coexist before it's too late.

Kim Kardashian's learned a thing or two about fighting inflation ... of her ankles during pregnancy -- and let's just say she won't get fooled again.
Kim cruised out of her San Diego hotel and for once, chose comfort over fashion ... because in full public view she was wearing fuzzy slippers.
Looks like the run of the mill, hotel spa-issued slippers too -- and NOT couture!
There's a very simple reason why roughly 6-months pregnant Kim is dressing down. Who can forget the great ankle crisis of 2013?

Canalis and her surgeon hubby Brian Perri were hilarious leaving Mr. Chow Thursday night, with Brian making it clear there are lots of names off the table because Elisabetta had lots of BFs.
They're having a girl, so George would be improbable.
Then again, anyone ever see "Georgy Girl."
