"I don't think there is anything to tackle, honestly. As people in the public eye, you are anyways so used to constant speculation. Sometimes, things are true, and people probably second-guess or assume something even before you have said it yourself, and sometimes, it's absolutely untrue. That's the nature of the business that we are in," the mommy-to-be added.

The parents-to-be are currently enjoying time off from work as they embark on their babymoon.
