(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Pregnant Kate Hudson is determined to ensure that her son Ryder won't feel left out when the new baby arrives.

The actress, who is expecting a child with her fianc, British muse rocker Matt Bellamy, has revealed that the seven-year-old is excited about the new addition to their family.

Kate, who had Ryder when she was married to her first husband Chris Robinson, explained she will have to be cautious when she introduces her son to his new sibling.

"Oh, he is totally excited," she told a German magazine. "But of course I have to be careful not to give him the feeling that he is in second place from now on."

The 32-year-old blonde beauty also revealed how the birth of her first child changed her life.

Kate was in her twenties when Ryder was born in 2004 and says becoming a mother made her more mature.

"He helped me to grow up," she said. "Life takes a new direction with a child, you see the deeper sense in life. Children become your priority. And you have to find a balance to include all the other stuff." (C) Cover Media
