Caterina Scorsone and her husband, musician Rob Giles, are expecting their first child this summer.
“We’re over the moon,” the Private Practice star, 30, tells PEOPLE exclusively.
“I’m starting to show now. Everybody on set has been pretty sweet and is offering me fruit.”
On Thursday’s episode, fans of the show will learn that Scorsone’s character, Dr. Amelia Shepard, is pregnant.
“This year Amelia — who had been sober — fell off the wagon after her friend died,” the actress explains of her character’s story arc. “She hit rock bottom, had an intervention and went to rehab. So this news is on the heels of that.”
Upon learning of Scorsone’s pregnancy, Private Practice creator Shonda Rhimes was inspired.
“The news came out of left field and I think she decided she could use this for dramatic purposes,” jokes Scorsone. “As an actress it never feels like right time. But once we knew what was happening we were like, ‘This is perfect.’”
“Shonda was immediately excited and talked about what we could do when the baby came so [he or she] could be on set,” she continues. “She’s been unbelievably supportive.”

And suddenly, Amelia's storyline makes sense! Congratulations to them.

(I'm just a really big Amelia/Sheldon shipper, okay!)
Every week I'm so frustrated with them not being together and I keep on watching ugh.
I am not really a Sheldon/Amelia shipper, tho, but then again, I missed their whole relationship or whatever when I wasn't watching
I seriously don't get her being in love with that random guy who died. I mean she only knew him for a few drug fueled weeks.
I think I loved it? It's been a while idr
But I'm not really referring to the post so much as the article itself.
