Thu 09 Aug 2:20 PM

Helena Bonham Carter is pregnant with her second child with director Tim Burton.

The actress, currently starring in Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix, is due in December this year. The couple (pictured) already have a three-year-old son, Billy Raymond Burton.

Bonham Carter's spokesperson, Karon Maskill confirmed to People.com: "They are very happy to be expecting their second child later this year."

The movie-making couple, who live in London, first met after Burton directed Oscar nominee Bonham Carter in 2001 movie Planet Of The Apes. They have since collaborated on several projects and are currently working on a musical adaptation of Sweeney Todd, in which Bonham Carter co-stars with Burton's (other) muse Johnny Depp. Sacha Baron Cohen and Alan Rickman co-star in Sweeney Todd, due in cinemas in January 2008 - so fingers crossed the baby arrives on time!
