Former Passions stars Natalie Zea (ex-Gwen Winthrop) and Travis Schuldt (ex-Ethan Winthrop) tied the knot last July, and they've already started working on expanding their family.

A rep for Zea confirms that the actress is pregnant with her first child and is due to give birth this fall.

Zea and Schuldt have been together for ten years, having met while they were both starring on Passions. They finally married last summer in Hawaii.

After wrapping their NBC soap roles, Zea moved on to star on Justified and The Following while Schuldt moved on to shows like Scrubs and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
