Casey Anthony is reportedly telling her closest friends that she's now pregnant with another child and is excited at the chance to show the world that she's a good mother, following her acquittal in the murder of her late daughter Caylee in 2008.

The National Enquirer recently posted a story based on claims of multiple unknown sources saying that America's most hated mother is pregnant.

"She just said that she fell in love with a very wealthy man while she's been in hiding. Casey said he's taking care of her financially and he's so obsessed with her that he'll do anything for her," a source told the tabloid.

"Her eyes lit up when she told me that she was expecting, but she wouldn't tell me who the baby's father is," added the source.

Since the July 2011 trial that found her not guilty of killing her 2-year-old daughter, Anthony has managed to stay almost completely out of the public eye, but did appear last week to declare bankruptcy.

Financial hardship aside, the site stated that Anthony has been bragging to her friends that she is over a month into her pregnancy. However, she opted for baggy clothing at her March 4 court appearance, which didn't reveal anything about her condition.

The tabloid also stated that there's a group of worried citizens who have created a petition and would like to see Anthony sterilized, as they feel she isn't fit to have another child.

The unidentified group will reportedly argue that the potential child should be given up to social services.

Although there's no indication as to who the mystery man who supposedly impregnated her is, he is said to be very wealthy, which doesn't justify Anthony's current monetary woes.

According to Daily Mail, Anthony isn't receiving any money in either book or TV deals, and is living under the kindness of both strangers and her ex-lawyer.
