Panettiere, who also starred in the TV show Heroes, has not hidden her desire to start a family.

“I’ve lived a very big life, and I don’t feel my age, and I feel like I was born to be a mother,” she previously told Us Weekly. “Sometimes people speak about [having kids] like, ‘Your life ends — you’re never going to be able to do anything again!’ And I’m like, ‘What are you talking about?’ Motherhood is the most beautiful, exciting thing, and there’s nothing that I feel like I can’t accomplish while having children in my life.”

Jumping for joy ... Hayden Panettiere and Wladimir Klitschko are expecting their first child together.

Panettiere joked with Ellen DeGeneres about what their children would look like given she is just five feet tall while her fiance towers over her at 6’6”.

“He’s got bowlegs and I’ve got knocked knees, so they’re going to have straight legs,” she said. “And they’ll be normal height.”
