Real Housewife of New York Bethenny Frankel, who recently became engaged to boyfriend Jason Hoppy, trumpeted her pregnancy on Twitter today, after giving People an exclusive on the news. But not because she wanted to (yet — she's only two months along). Because Perez Hilton leaked the information yesterday and forced her to:

"I'm pregnant I had to be true w u but was unfairly forced to come forward early."


People describes Frankel as "fighting back tears" when she told them the news, but somehow she managed to turn that frown upside down in time to brag: "I got to be honest, we are both feeling kind of proud of ourselves. We are both 38 and we were like, 'Listen, your fish can swim and I am fertile.' So that's exciting."

That is exciting! No more skinny-girl cocktails for Bethenny for a while.
