Liz: Morning sickness isn't too bad

Looking radiant, three-months pregnant Liz Hurley emerged from her Chelsea home at midday today.

She beamed at the waiting media and declared she was "feeling great".

She said: "I've only had a little morning sickness - it's not too bad - and apart from that I feel fine. Yes, of course I'm excited, it's overwhelming."

She said she had not experienced any pregnancy cravings and added she had no idea if the baby was a boy or a girl.

"I haven't got a clue and neither have we thought about names yet," she added before being whisked away from reporters and photographers.

She refused to say where she and her friend Henry Dent Brocklehurst, who had arrived in a black jeep only seconds before to pick her up, were heading.

Miss Hurley, 36, refused to comment on whether she would be moving in with the baby's father Steve Bing, fuelling speculation that she plans to raise the child as a single mother.

A close friend was reported as saying: "Liz is preparing to bring up the baby alone. She will rely on the love and support of her family and many friends."

Her former partner Hugh Grant, who had arrived at her home at midnight, spent the night there and left this morning at about 10.30am.
