What would Lizzie McGuire say? Hilary Duff will be making another return to television this spring, this time as a love interest for TV's highest-paid actor, Ashton Kutcher.

According to TVLine, the first-time mom will play Stacey, a woman who catches Kutcher's character Walden's eye on the season finale of Two and a Half Men.

But Duff, 25, isn't the one who ultimately keeps Kutcher's interest on the show; instead, E! News confirms, Walden will end up falling for her grandmother, who will be played by Taxi and Celebrity Apprentice star Marilu Henner, 60.

Off-screen, however, Duff is having no problem turning heads after working hard to shed 30 pounds to get her bikini body back following the birth of her adorable 11-month-old son Luca.

"My one trainer helped me lose a sh-t ton of weight," she told Us in February. "I lost like 30 pounds. His name is Gabe Johns and he is amazing. He's a boxing trainer and he comes to my house. I live in the canyon, so we just run. He runs my ass up and down the hill."

Posted Wednesday August 24, 2011 10:39 AM GMT

Stepping out for a sisterly sweat session, Hilary and Haylie Duff hit up a West Hollywood, California gym together on Wednesday (August 23).

Ready to kick it up with some cardio, the 23-year-old mom-to-be and her "Napoleon Dynamite" starlet sis dressed in loose gray tops and black spandex as they tended to their fitness regimen.

As previously reported by GossipCenter, Hilary has officially been dropped from the forthcoming indie film, "The Story of Bonnie and Clyde," a remake of the 1967 classic.

Movie producers told press they could not wait until July, when Duff expected to be able to begin work, adding, "Due to our obligations with investors and international buyers it is imperative that we stick to our current schedule. Therefore we are forced to explore other options for the two lead roles. Unfortunately this happens all the time in the world of filmmaking."
