Giuliana Rancic Calls Kris Jenner Her “Second Mom”

Not only is E! correspondent Giuliana Rancic expecting a baby with husband Bill Rancic via gestational surrogate, she’s also got an upcoming series on NBC called Ready for Love which she’ll co-host with Bill.  What more could a woman want?  How about Kris Jenner as a bestie?  Umm….

It turns out that the two ladies are not just part of the E! Network together (or, let’s face it, the Kardashian Network), they are also really close friends.  Who knew?

According to the print issue of Us Weekly, the pair is super close.  Giuliana tells the magazine, “Kris Jenner is like my second mother.  [She] gives me the greatest advice. You’ll email her one question, one line, and she’ll respond in four paragraphs. She’s the most thorough, amazing woman.”

Not only is the famous matriarch doling out motherhood tips, she’s outfitting Baby Rancic in the chicest athletic gear.

Giuliana reveals, “She sent the best gifts for the baby: the cutest clothes from Ralph Lauren, [including] Olympic polos from the London Olympics that have the Olympic emblem.  I thought ‘wow, my kid is going to have an Olympic shirt from Bruce Jenner?’ That’s pretty cool. And she sent Baby’s First Golf Clubs! Bill died when he saw that.”

Bill also weighs in on fatherhood, stating, “I hope I’m half as good a dad as my dad was to me.  My dad was very patient. He never forced me to do anything — play sports — but he encouraged me to do it. And I’m glad that he did because I think that’s been a big factor in who I’ve become, the man that I’ve become today.”

As odd a pairing as Kris and Giuliana is, I am glad that Bill will be there to thwart any potential fame whoring that Kris could push on their baby!
