If the latest round of Katie Holmes rumors is to be believed, then she's not only expecting a second baby but she prepared for the pregnancy by going on a special Scientology detox diet.

However, I have been assured by well-placed sources that neither is true.

Read on for the real story…

There is no dieting. The story apparently took off after first being reported in a U.K. tabloid that Tom Cruise was insisting she go on the diet to rid her bodies of toxins. "She is not on any diet," one source says. "She's working, and she's definitely eating."

As for claims that Holmes didn't attend the Oscars because the dieting had left her too lethargic to make the trip, she never had plans to go because she started preproduction work on her new independent movie The Extra Man in New York City just a day before the awards .

So, if she's not dieting, she must be eating for two, right?

Well, that's what OK! claims. The magazine reports that she and her hubby are trying to keep the big news a secret because it's so early in the pregnancy.

However, Suri, shouldn't be getting her hand-me-downs ready just yet.

While the Cruises have made no secret about wanting to have more kids together, I'm told there is no baby No. 2 on the way right now.
