Lindqvist filed for divorce from her husband, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr Ritu Chopra, in May and she is believed to have been living separately from her spouse for over a year.

A source told National Enquirer magazine: "Caroline broke the news to Owen this past May shortly after confirming that he was the father. A few days later she filed for divorce from her husband."

According to the publication, Wilson met Lindqvist not long after his split from actress Kate Hudson and his 2007 suicide attempt.

His personal trainer

Shortly after they met, the comic actor hired Lindqvist to be his personal trainer and becoming close friends their relationship became a romantic one.
 
The new issue of America's Star magazine reports the pair's romance only began after Lindqvist had left her husband Chopra, but although the physician was aware his wife had moved on the news of the baby has still come as a huge shock to him.
