Bridget's Shopping Spree for Kendra's Baby
E! Networks
Bridget Marquardt may not be flying to Indianapolis when Kendra Wilkinson gives birth next month, but that doesn't mean she's not thinking about her.
"I bought her so much stuff," Bridget told us at the recent Nu Pop Movement watch launch in L.A. "Tons of stuff. From the stroller to the car seat to toys and clothes and diapers and everything. So I think she has everything she needs from me."
Except a certain holiday outfit…

Bridget Marquardt knows being in the spotlight of reality television can be stressful, but she doesn't think it's to blame for Jon and Kate Gosselin's messy split.
"I personally don't think it necessarily had to do with the reality show," the Girl Next Door told us at this week's Reality Cares' Sizzles event at the SunStyle Tanning Studio in West Hollywood. "I think he was unhappy with his marriage and the situation to begin with…I think [reality tv] definitely is a stress-factor in a relationship, but I don't think it breaks it up. I think there have to be underlying problems."
In fact, Bridget wouldn't mind scoring another reality show deal.
Oh? Read on for details, plus hear what she has to say about moving in with boyfriend Nick Carpenter...

Pregnant Kendra: More Food, Less Stripper Pole

Mommy-to-be Kendra Wilkinson doesn't care how many pounds she puts on during her pregnancy.
"I'm concentrating more on what's healthy for the baby more than my weight gain," says Kendra, whose E! reality show was just renewed for a second season. "I know my weight gain will go away very fast, so if I gain weight and that's what it takes to make my baby healthy, that's what has to happen."
Kendra, who is expecting her and football hubby Hank Baskett's first baby on Christmas Day, recently began craving Japanese food…
Kendra! Kendra! Kendra!
Congrats Kendra Wilkinson!
Her self-titled reality show is coming back to E! for a second season. And as you probably already know, the mommy-to-be is due to give birth to her and hubby Hank Baskett's first baby on Christmas Day.
I sat down with Ms. Kendra yesterday to catch up on all things pregnancy.

Pregnant Kendra on Kate's Plus 8: "I Feel Bad for the Kids"

It doesn't sound like parents-to-be Kendra Wilkinson and her football player hubby, Hank Baskett, will be going all Jon and Kate Gosselin on us.
Kendra says their baby, due on Christmas Day, probably won't be on camera too much if she and Baskett continue starring in reality television. That is a lesson she learned from tuning in for Jon & Kate Plus 8.
"We don't watch that anymore," Kendra tells me. "I watched back when it was good and they weren't all Hollywood."
She continued, "I feel bad for the kids. If we do have a show, none of that's going to happen...I want to be able to spend quality time with my child and not really give the world too much."
And that includes getting out of Hollywood...

Hank Baskett Talks Kendra, the Baby and Hef!
E! Entertainment
Kendra Wilkinson has said plenty about her pregnancy. But what about her fiancé and daddy-to-be Hank Baskett? He's been his usual quiet and private self—until now.
In an exclusive interview, the Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver opens up about impending fatherhood, the wedding, Kendra's morning sickness and why Hugh Hefner will always be a part of their lives…
Kendra, Kim and Kourtney's Party Tip
Picking sister Kim as her designated driver is a no-brainer for Kourtney Kardashian.
"Luckily, Kim doesn't drink, so she drives us everywhere," Kourtney says.
Adds Kim, "I am always the designated driver. I've never been big on drinking."
The Kardashians, fellow reality star Kendra Wilkinson and a slew of other boldfaced names are featured in E!'s new Drive Safe campaign to prevent drinking and driving.
The network teamed up with Sean "Diddy" Combs and Ciroc Ultra Premium vodka to shoot the spot at Hollywood's LAX nightclub. Along with the celebs' designated driver picks, the ad includes info on online and wireless access to local taxi services across the country.
As Wilkinson told me during shooting, "It's crazy what one or two drinks can do. It's sad how innocent people die because of stupidity."
