First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes Katherine Heigl with a baby carriage? Not so fast!
“It’s nothing that we’re talking about right now,” her husband, musician Josh Kelley, told PEOPLE Tuesday. “We’re pretty busy.”
Kelley, 28, spent the summer vacationing with Heigl, 29, and touring. He returns to performing August 8 with Rod Stewart.
Heigl said in March that she would like to have children sooner than Kelley - but she agreed that wasting their current career opportunities would be “foolish.”
And despite Heigl’s controversial comments about the Grey’s Anatomy writers, Kelley said his wife is thrilled to be back at work on the show.
“She’s stoked, man,” said Kelley, adding that Heigl’s statements had been “overblown.” “It’s a great show, and I think it’s going to be a great season.”
• Fresh from her Mexican vacation, Katherine Heigl, cheered on her
hubby Josh Kelley front and center during his intimate gig at
Hollywood’s Hotel Café. The Grey’s Anatomy star sat
with a girlfriend, and shouted out requests for songs like “Cain and Abel.”
Meanwhile, Kelley had his own message for his wife from the stage: He
substituted her name into some of the songs. Says a fellow concertgoer:
“They were totally interactive.” Kelley also told the crowd he’d curled his
wife’s hair for the evening out. “It was so cute,” the concertgoer tells us.
• Hilary Duff, spending more than $1,300 on a
shopping spree at Switch, a Beverly Hills boutique. The singer tried on
nearly everything, and was “really bubbly,” an onlooker says. But Duff
wasn’t content to just sample the wares - clearly. Among her purchases,
Duff left with: a Bensoni silk camisole, a Michelle Jonas long jersey dress
and a scarf tank from the Olsen’s line, Elizabeth and James. After her
shopping trip, Duff headed across the street for a facial.
• A pregnant Gwen Stefani, strolling arm-in-arm
through London’s Primrose Hill with husband Gavin Rossdale, who
held tight to son Kingston, 2.
• Usher, holding court with his all-male entourage
inside Goa in Hollywood during
a bash in his honor. (The pre-BET Awards celebration also honored Lil Wayne.) At one point, singer Mario approached, standing behind
Usher. Also at the party: John Legend, Kim Kardashian and beau Reggie Bush.
• John Travolta, working out with his trainer in the private
gym at Oceana Santa Monica. The actor has been intensely working out several
times a week, but he’s also made time for food - a light lunch,
specifically, at the hotel’s Ocean Lounge.
• Michael Jordan, dining with a female friend at Miami’s
Kobe Club. … Alex Rodriguez (of the New York Yankees), getting
pampered and his hair cut at New York’s Frederic Fekkai Fifth Avenue Salon.

Tuesday’s Caught in the Act >
It’s been three months since her Christmas-themed wedding in Park City, Utah, and Katherine Heigl can’t stop singing the praises of her new husband, musician Josh Kelley.
“He was everything I was looking for, or needed or wanted in my life,” the 27 Dresses star told Britain’s Sunday Times. “He’s just so easy to be around. He lightens up the room and lightens my load.”
In fact, the 29-year-old Grey’s Anatomy star already has babies on the brain. “I think he’d prefer to wait a little more time, but I kind of wouldn’t,” she told the paper, adding that it would be “foolish” to waste their current career opportunities. “I think we’ll meet somewhere in the middle.”
Heigl may seem to have it all these days - a rock-star hubby, a hit TV series and comparisons to America’s Sweetheart Julia Roberts. (”I can’t help but feel that’s a little insulting to Julia Roberts,” she joked to the Times.) But her life wasn’t always so picture perfect.
When she was only 7, her older brother Jason died from injuries he sustained when he was thrown from the back of a pickup truck.
“For a long time, %26#91;Jason’s death%26#93; made me afraid of being too happy because things happen so unexpectedly,” she said. “Your world can change and every aspect of your life is different.”
In fact, Heigl said, she’s still learning to let down her defenses. “%26#91;His death%26#93; made me afraid when good things happen. It made me brace against it that little bit,” she explained. “I’m trying hard not to do that any more. It doesn’t make something terrible easier - and I don’t want to waste my happiness.”

Katherine Heigl’s husband Josh Kelley showed off some hidden talents by solving on a Rubik’s cube during Live with Regis and Kelly on Friday.
The singer, who married the Grey’s Anatomy star in December, furiously worked to solve the toy’s puzzle - and chatted about married life with the TV hosts.
Asked by Philbin how he likes being married. Kelley responded, “Oh man, it feels good, dude. It feels really, really good. I finally, I’ve got roots now. It’s like I am finally becoming an adult.”
“Yeah. I can see that,” joked Ripa as the singer continued to try to solve the Rubik’s cube puzzle.
Ultimately, Kelley solved the cube in 2 minutes 55 seconds and said, “It’s all about how you see it. You gotta think of it like a stack of three pancakes. You solve for the top pancake first, then use all the space %26#91;below%26#93; to solve for the next pancake and then the last one’s the hardest.”
Josh Kelley has plenty to sing about. In addition to releasing his new album, Special Company, he’s still basking in newlywedded bliss with wife-of-one-month Katherine Heigl.
“It’s feels unbelievable to be married. I thought that %26#91;being married%26#93; wasn’t that different %26#91;from dating%26#93;, but actually it is so different,” the singer-songwriter, 28, told PEOPLE during his album party last Thursday at Chicago’s Rockit Bar and Grill. As a husband, “my mentality changed from being a boyish man to a man’s man.”
“When we first met, I could tell that my A.D.D. would definitely frustrate her a little bit,” Kelley confessed. “It’s like, I would be drawing on paper tablecloths when I should have been engaging in conversation - little things like that. No one ever told me that before. Nobody ever cared. But she does. And I like that.”
The two - who didn’t live together until after the ceremony - have settled easily into a domestic routine. (Heigl has had plenty of time to nest, thanks to the writers’ strike.)
“We cook together,” he said. “She is a great cook. I am a good helper-chef. I’m good with the grill and good with taking chances with certain spices.”
What about hitting the L.A. club scene? “We are not a typical Hollywood couple at all,” Kelley explained. “We stay in. We cook, we watch Dexter, and I make music and paint. It’s fun.”
Josh Kelley’s latest smash hit wasn’t one the singer had planned.
Kelley and new wife Katherine Heigl found their SUV was the target of an overnight break-in.
The car, which was parked outside the couple’s Hollywood Hills home, had a demolished driver’s side window and was missing only the GPS device, according to a video clip posted on TMZ.com. Kelley can be heard saying, “Thieves suck.”
While a smoking Heigl moves their other SUV into the garage, Kelley removes two guitars - miraculously untouched - from the backseat of the burglarized vehicle, amazed at the luck.
He may get lost next time he drives, but least the crooner can still serenade his new bride!
