Heidi Montag is pregnant, she and husband Spencer Pratt announced to Us Weekly.

Montag said she is due on October 19. She said she was “overwhelmed” when she shared the news with her husband of eight years.

“I started crying, and he embraced me,” the former MTV starlet recalled.

Pratt said Montag has always wanted to be a mother.

“Heidi has wanted to be a mom since the day I met her,” he told Us Weekly. “She has planned for and thought about this.”

The former reality TV villains, who rose to fame on “The Hills,” said they agreed it was time to grow their family.

“I wanted a baby three years ago,” Montag told Us Weekly. “Spencer was a little hesitant. Then one thing after another came up. We had work obligations, like ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ in the U.K., which I did not want to be pregnant for. I’m actually really thankful we waited. I thought I was ready in my twenties, but with everything we had going on, it just wouldn’t have been a good situation for us.

Pratt added, “Agreed. I think I’m ready. I know Heidi is ready!”
