Edwin Edwards and his wife, Trina, now have a reality show and a baby on the way. Trina Edwards announced via Facebook Friday, “As of today I am officially allowed to make that announcement I’ve been dying to make. … WE ARE EXPECTING!!” The 85-year-old, four-term former governor and his 34-year-old wife just celebrated the end of his probation last week, which followed a 10-year prison sentence on federal corruption charges. They are also working on a reality show for A&E titled The Governor’s Wife. Initially slated to premiere this month, the show was pushed back twice, now to a summer date. No word on when the Edwards baby is expected, though initial reports of Trina Edwards’ pregnancy surfaced last month. She has a teenage son from a previous marriage; he has two daughters nearly twice her age. —Benjamin Leger
