RACHEL WEISZ - WEISZ SLAMS CRITICS OVER BABY COMMENTS

Pregnant Oscar nominee RACHEL WEISZ has lashed out at people who look down on her because she is having a baby out of wedlock.

THE CONSTANT GARDENER star lives with REQUIEM FOR A DREAM director DARREN ARONOFSKY, but the couple haven't married yet.

She explains, "We are in fact, only engaged. We haven't yet tied the knot. We're not married.

"People have said to me 'Was the baby a mistake?' And I thought to myself 'Did the sixties happen?', 'Are we in the 1900's or something? That did surprise me a little bit."

The actress says her fiance will be very involved in the baby's birth and that they will get married when they are both ready.

She adds, "I like being engaged. I think it's very romantic."
