...antique bed, complete with details like hand-painted flowers and gold leaf. The master builder is sedately curled up on a plush flower-print couch in an upstairs parlor. Now seven months pregnant, she radiates a warmth well beyond her Charlie's Angel image. Her skin is flawless, her eyes full of the clear California light and her manner exasperatingly placid. She and third husband Cinematographer Tony Richmond (The Greek Tycoon), 39, married last August. "I'm very old-fashioned," says the Houston dentist's daughter. "I've wanted babies ever since I was a little girl." A heady rise...
