Now 38, the brunette beauty was abused by a man she dated in her 20s, but she's been happily married to musician Noah Lebenzon since June 2007, and she recently announced their first child is due in July. “Being pregnant is a dream come true for Ana,” a source close to the Irish-Latina actress told The ENQUIRER. While she seems wildly happy now, Ana has revealed that she was beaten and strangled by an abusive ex-boyfriend. “I was dating someone young and charismatic, and I just kind of fell into it,” she recalled. < previous story next story > Published on: 01/14/2009 Printer Friendly \| Email Article NO JUSTICE FOR TRAVOLTA JAYCEE KIDNAPPER CONFESSED TO MURDER -- SAYS FRIEND BURNING LOVE!
