Actress Becki Newton — best remembered as materialistic Mode receptionist Amanda Tanen on the now-defunct ABC dramedy Ugly Betty — is expecting her first child with hubby Chris Diamantopoulos. However, the pregnancy annoucement has prompted some unexpected changes for the actress’ new NBC comedy, Love Bites.
Her days may be numbered on television’s Ugly Betty, but the curtain hasn’t closed just yet for Becki Newton. The actress has reportedly landed a starring role in a new NBC pilot. Newton, who previously appeared as receptionist Amanda on the recently cancelled Betty, has been cast as virgin and hopeless romantic “Annie” in the new hour-long comedy Love Bites, Entertainment Weekly said this week. The romantic comedy, executive produced by Sex And The City’s Cindy Chupack, is expected to premiere this fall.
Fashionista Becki Newton, best known for her role as Amanda The Bratty Receptionist on the ABC dramedy Ugly Betty, stops by Bravo’s The Fashion Show tonight to present this week’s Harper’s Bazaar mini challenge as a guest judge.
