As fans of The Young and the Restless found out today, Ashley Abbott is pregnant... with Victor Newman's child.

Actress Eileen Davidson told The New York Daily News she was initially unsure about the storyline.

"At first I went, 'Huh?'" said Ashley's portrayer, pictured. "But then I decided I like it. It's unexpected."

Unlike most actresses, Davidson added that she's looking forward to wearing a fake pregnancy belly.

"How much longer do I have to wear a pad at my age?" she joked, adding that if The Young and the Restless addresses her age, "I'll kick their a$$."
