May 26, 2014 -- Rachel Bilson has yet to confirm that she's expecting, but it seems one of her friends has done it for her.

Bilson's "Hart of Dixie" costar Jaime King revealed that she "was freaking out" when she heard her pal was pregnant.

"I knew she wanted a baby, she wanted it so badly," King told Us Weekly. "She's going to be in such good hands. She's in a really good space. I'm really thrilled for her."

According to reports, Bilson, 32, and her longtime boyfriend, Hayden Christensen, 33, are expecting their first child. Neither have commented officially, though King revealed that Bilson has had hands-on experience with her son, James.

"She loves James, she's always bringing him toys," King said. "Just seeing her with my son, I know she's going to be the best mother."

Well, in time anyway. King added that though she shot their CW series right up to the point where she was ready to give birth, "we're not doing that with Rachel."

"I think we're going to have more time before," she added. "I feel like it's a really celebratory time. I'm really thrilled and happy that she's going to be on this next journey of her life!"
