Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid are reportedly discussing adopting a baby together.
The couple, who are rumored to be engaged, are eager to start a family together as the Snow Patrol pianist has bonded with the actress' nine-year-old daughter Coco, her child from her previous marriage to David Arquette. The pair think it would be great to give a disadvantaged youngster a new life and give Coco a sister.
"Courteney proposed the idea of adopting a child to Johnny after their family vacation to Italy in February. And Johnny is all for it. He's in love with the idea of growing a family with her," a source said.
Courteney, 49, and Johnny, 37, sparked speculation they are engaged after the former Friends star was spotted wearing a huge diamond ring on her engagement finger as she strolled through Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) earlier this month.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Celebrity Babies, Rumors,
Charlize Theron is getting ready to adopt a second child.
The "Monster" star is keen for her son, Jackson, two, to have a sibling, and will be starting the process in the New Year. "Charlize admits it's a lot to go through, but she definitely wants Jackson to have a little brother. She's starting the process all over again right after the New Year. She wants Jackson to have a sibling who isn't four or five years younger than him - she wants to raise them together," a source said.
The South Africa-born actress has not yet decided which country to adopt the child from or whether he or she will share Jackson's African-American heritage. "She's made no decision about that yet. She is eyeing the possibility of adopting a child from South Africa this time, but she hasn't decided. She just knows she wants another baby," the source added.
Charlize - who split with long term partner Stuart Townsend after nine years together in 2010 - became mother to Jackson in 2012 and claims she always knew she would adopt. "My mother found a letter I wrote. It said, 'Would you please take me to orphanage, so that I can go and adopt a baby?' I always knew I would adopt. Always," she previously said.

Leona Lewis will "definitely adopt children."
The "Bleeding Love" hitmaker doesn't know if she'll have kids of her own but is determined to give a disadvantaged child a home after learning about her mum's childhood spent in care. Leona describes her mother Maria as a "hero" for her providing her with a wonderful home and giving her a sense of family unity.
"My mum is a hero to me, that's given me a very strong sense of family loyalty to those I trust. I will definitely adopt children. I'm not sure if I want my own."
The 28-year-old - who is a strict vegetarian and a campaigner for animals rights - has been working non-stop this year after teaming up with The Body Shop in March to create her own limited-edition make-up and fragrance range, which will feature bold, shiny lip gloss and shimmer palettes. Leona has also just completed her Glassheart Tour, which kicked off in April and hit 21 different venues across Germany and the United Kingdom.

Anne Hathaway wants to adopt children and have "a few" naturally.
The 30-year-old actress is very keen to start a family with her actor and jewelry designer husband Adam Shulman - whom she married in September - and while the brunette beauty would love to have as many kids as she can "afford," she insists each one must feel "special."
"I've wanted to be a mom since I was 16. I'm 30 and I want to have a family of a certain size. I'll start with one healthy kid but I'd like to have a few naturally and adopt. I gotta get on it, you know? I'd like to have as many as I can afford, not just financially but in terms of time, because you want to make sure each one feels special. I've had one goal in mind for the past 12 years, which is: get a movie, get a movie, get a movie. Now I might have to say: get a baby, get a baby, get a baby," she said.

Katie Holmes is reportedly planning to adopt a little girl.
The Dead Accounts Broadway actress is said to be eager for their six-year-old biological daughter Suri to have another sibling and is looking into adoption. A source close to the 33-year-old actress told Star, "Suri has been asking for a sister lately - she's even praying for one at night, which tugs at Katie's heart. Her goal is to have a new addition to their family within the next year."
The insider claims that although Katie has only just begun looking into the process, she has already consulted a high-end adoption agency and would prefer to adopt a two-year-old toddler in need of a home rather than a newborn.
Meanwhile, Kate is rumoured to be spending Thanksgiving with her ex-husband next Thursday as she thinks it is in their daughter's best interest. "Tom and Katie are determined to show Suri that they're still friends and devoted parents. They know it will mean so much for her, and both are happy to swallow their pride to make sure she has a fun holiday. Thanksgiving has always been a really big deal for them," a source said at the time.
Brooklyn Decker Wants to Adopt a Disabled Baby
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Sports, Celebrity Babies, Kind Acts,
Brooklyn Decker wants to adopt a disabled baby. The 25-year-old actress - who is married to tennis pro Andy Roddick - is planning on expanding her family eventually and has been inspired by her aunt, a Special Olympics athlete.
"I want to adopt a baby with an intellectual disability one day. I mean, that's in the distant future, but that's always been a goal of mine. Unfortunately a lot of kids with intellectual disabilities are given up for adoption when they're born because it's a lot for their family," she said.
However, Brooklyn - who is best known for her roles in movies Battleship and What to Expect When You're Expecting - is not always so confident with her decisions; she has previously confessed to feeling similar to Kristen Wiig's insecure maid of honor character Annie Walker in Bridesmaids: "I feel like her character is my inner soul. The ways she acts are my inner thoughts, but I just can't express them because they're too nerdy. So if he [Andy Roddick] was calling her crazy, I guess that makes me slightly crazy."
Katherine Heigl Adopts Second Daughter
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Celebrity Babies, Kind Acts,
Katherine Heigl and Josh Kelley have adopted a second daughter. The couple - who already have three-year-old daughter Naleigh from South Korea - have welcomed another child, but a name is not yet known.
"Yes they have adopted a baby. No further details are available at this time," the couple's representative said.
In January, 33-year-old Katherine confirmed she was talking about taking on another child with her 32-year-old husband: "Josh and I started talking about it before we were even engaged. We have talked about having biological children as well but we decided to adopt first. I'd like to adopt again."
The Grey's Anatomy beauty previously claimed she felt like a "bad mother" when she first adopted Naleigh from South Korea in 2009 because she could not bond with her.
"I fought incredibly hard for my daughter to accept me as mother. Her rejection almost broke my heart. At first I blamed myself and thought I was a bad mother. It took a while before I could admit to myself that the lack of trust had nothing to do with me."
Josh Hutcherson Names Puppy After Ryan Gosling
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Features,
Josh Hutcherson has named his puppy after Ryan Gosling.
The 19-year-old Hunger Games star adopted a Blue Pit puppy from a rescue center last week and decided to call it Driver, after one of Ryan's film characters. "I'm obsessed with the movie Drive, and Ryan Gosling's character was named Driver. I always thought it was a good name for a dog so it just kind of worked out," he said.
The actor is looking forward to "taking it easy" for the next few months, after being worked into the ground by ex-Navy Seal Logan Hood to bulk up for his role in The Hunger Games:
"[Logan] just kicks ass. [He had me] flipping tires the parking lot and slamming baseball bats against body bags - crazy things! It was so unconventional, and you're working muscles you didn't even know you had. You're like, 'How am I possibly this sore?' I felt like with Logan, I was sore for four days afterwards, and we worked out five days a week, so I was in a constant state of soreness!"
