HALLE & GABRIEL

the PARENTS-TO-BE

BABY ON BOARD, AT LAST!
Expecting her first child in 2008 with boyfriend Gabriel Aubry, Berry said she'd waited a "long time" for motherhood, telling Oprah, "after about 35 tests, we finally got a positive test." As the mom-to-be readies her eco-friendly nursery—and continues to rock high-fashion nonmaternity clothes well into her third trimester!—Aubry is busy indulging her every need. "She loves foot massages.... I do all of that stuff," he told Access Hollywood. For her part, Berry has no complaints: "The morning sickness and the vomiting ... I've loved every second of it."

SIBLING FEVER
Berry, 41, and Aubry, 32, a model and restaurateur, have no plans to wed, but they are definitely hoping to expand their family. Says the actress: "Two [kids] would be nice."

BRAD & ANGELINA

the DO-GOODERS

PASSPORT WORKOUT
The Jolie-Pitt family traveled the globe yet again, with Pitt spreading the word about his New Orleans rebuilding project and Jolie—who scored a Golden Globe nod for A Mighty Heart—journeying to war-torn Iraq. The family also added a new member: 4-year-old Pax, whom Pitt, 44, and Jolie, 32, adopted from Vietnam in June. (He joins siblings Maddox, 6, Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 1.)

GROWTH POTENTIAL
They're not done, Pitt told the AP about the family's expansion. "They say, 'Any plans for a fifth?' And I say, 'And a sixth, and a seventh, and an eighth, and a ninth.' That's my answer."

REESE & JAKE

the UNDER-COVER COUPLE

GETTING SERIOUS
The low-key pair went public with their love while visiting Italy and Napa Valley. Biggest sign that it's getting serious? Gyllenhaal, 27, has bonded with Witherspoon's kids Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4.

TOM & KATIE

the ETERNAL ROMANTICS

NEWLYWED BLISS
Mr. and Mrs. Cruise PDA'd their way through Europe, where Cruise, 45, was filming his movie Valkyrie, and celebrated two firsts: Daughter Suri turned 1 on April 18, and their first anniversary was Nov. 18. The romance "made my life," Holmes, 29, told IN STYLE. "I try every day to make him know how much I love him."

WILLIAM & KATE

the ROYAL DARLINGS

TOGETHER AGAIN
In April the college sweethearts, both 25, broke up, but by summer they were back together. And this month they skated happily around a London rink—fanning engagement rumors.

JEN & BEN

the COUPLE NEXT DOOR

DOUBLE DUTY
Between frequent playdates with their dimpled daughter Violet, 2, the couple kept busy with work: Affleck, 35, impressed with his directorial debut, Gone Baby Gone, while Garner, 35, won critics' hearts in the film Juno and on Broadway in Cyrano de Bergerac.

ALL ABOUT VIOLET
No terrible twos for Jen's mini-me! "Yeah, we lucked out," Garner told Marie Claire. "She's pretty awesome."

DAVID & VICTORIA

the SEXY IMPORTS

BRITISH INVASION
The fashion-flaunting duo brought a whole lot of sexy across the pond (see their smokin' W magazine spread and his new underwear ads for Emporio Armani). The couple quickly settled into L.A. with friends like Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, who cheered on the mother of sons Brooklyn, 8, Romeo, 5, and Cruz, 2, who is on tour with the Spice Girls. "It's the happiest as a family we've ever been," Posh told Elle magazine.
