Padma Lakshmi is an Indian American former model best known as the host of 'Top Chef.' Lakshmi was born in Kerala, India, but spent most of her adolescent life in the United States.

“Top Chef” host Padma Lakshmi might be pregnant. I noticed in a picture of her at the Emmys and wondered if she was pregnant. It definitely looked like she has a bun in the oven. She is said pregnant with current boyfriend Manu Nathan's baby, but no official statement has been made regarding the matter.

Padma has been dating Manu Nathan for a little while and if this true, the couple will make beautiful babies. I can’t find a side view picture, but it’s a much better argument for the pregnancy theory. Lakshmi posed on the red carpet with "Top Chef" judge Tom Colicchio. The show is up for Outstanding Reality-Competition Program and best host.
