Although not due to give birth to her second baby until the end of the summer, her burgeoning bump was still visible beneath her full-length gown.The Fantastic Four beauty, who attended with husband Cash Warren, shimmered in a Ralph Lauren gown that perfectly showecased her rounding belly.Jessica is already a mum to two-year-old daughter Honor, while Kate is also preparing to welcome her second child.
