Oddly, there’s nothing the tabs like more than a troubled pregnancy story, and the National Enquirer is no exception. This week the supermarket tab has gone after one of its favorite targets, Mel Gibson, claiming his pregnant girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva’s “eating habits have friends worried about the couple’s unborn baby.”

And it’s not just friends, reports the Enquirer. In a piece titled, “Friends Fear: Mel’s Baby Momma Too Skinny,” the tab says Gibson, a father of seven, would like her to put on a few more pounds. “Mel asked Oksana to try to eat more,” an Enquirer “source” says. That same person remarks that his estranged wife “Robyn gained tons of weight during her pregnancies, but she always managed to get back in shape. Mel’s used to that kind of mentality.”

Gibson’s rep, who recently had dinner with the couple, tells Gossip Cop that the story is – well, we’ll half quote him and say – “bull,” and adds, “she is a gorgeous, healthy pregnant woman.”
